Identification of SSS Emblems

Post by D52E »

Does anyone know what car these SSS emblems come from? They were in a parts bundle I purchased.

Yes, 411SSS-- they came in two versions, a SS badge (exactly the same as this one-- and photographed above) and the SSS version.

Definitely original to the 411, but weren't those the ones that were also used on the State-side 510 faux-SSS package?

Julian,

Nissan used the rectangular versions of the 411SSS badge on the faux north-American SSS 510. They went on the side C-pillars (almost always on a vinyl top) and on the grill and tail light panel.

I found this one later. Maybe it did come from a 411
