the SSS badges I need are that second link you gave....the single 1600SSS badge.
and yeah, thems the hubbies I need too!
you do remember I live in New Zealand?
What would you want for them?, and how much do you think shipping would be approx?

If you guys are after anything that we got here, I can find you guys bits too....as NZ and Aus got lots of Datsuns/models.
If anyones after some coilover struts.....my coupe came from Japan with adjustable coilovers mounted to original 510 struts......I dont want them.

We got REAL SSS 510's, from what I've heard/read, the USA 510 SSS was basically just a slap some badges on kinda deal.
the true SSS, had a better engine, with the twin SU's, SSS head e.t.c.

What I think is so cool, is that lots of enthusiasts seem to want parts from other countries, and those parts are often just old parts that may not necessarily be very valuable. I had a guy in Japan purchase headlamps, front corner lamps and tail lamps from me, for a 1988-1991 Honda Civic WAGON!! Not a Hatch or Sedan, a WAGON!

Apparently, the Japanese want the USA-spec parts, just like we want the JDM-spec! Make a list datsunboy, as I'm sure you can find a good home for your parts, AND get what you want in return!!!

Hey Datsunboy, I love your coupe. I was wondering if you had more pics of your dads 4 door. It looks like a 68. I have a 68 but its nowhere as nice as that one. I would love to hear more about it and see pics. Thanks.
Scott

he lives at the other end of the country than me, so I dont see it too often, I'll get more pics next time (could be 6months away).

Spent my sunday wiring up my sequential tail lights in my coupe.
These were a factory option back in the 70's for the coupes.
I managed to find one on Yahoo Japan, and get it running

Cool huh?

heres the pic of the one I seen on Yahoo Japan. note the Nissan box, and new rear loom that came with the unit factory
This one ended up selling for something stupid like $500NZ!!! I cant remember exactly

heres the unit itself in its wierd glory.
This one cost me about $80NZ

theres 2 relays inside, one for each indicator.
normal state, all pins are connected together, and to the brake light signal.

when a relay is on, it switches to connecting the pins to the cam switches.

The cam is driven by a worm drive motor.
it has a small capacitor connected up also, which is there to make sure the cam stops in the same position each time you turn the indicator off.
