A/C sticker

[george71z]

I acquired a small window sticker that is 2" X 4 1/4", reading "Air Conditioned for DATSUN by Frigiking. It is blue and white. Is this something that was put on the cars that had the dealer-installed A/C installed? Anybody have any info about this? T.i.A.

Hi George

My '75 Z came from a So. California dealer with A/C and didn't have a sticker anywhere indicating an aftermarket installer. Also, the So. California dealerships didn't normally add their dealer sticker/emblems to the cars they sold at that time as did dealers in other parts of the USA, which might explain the installers sticker on your car as being a common practice in your region. The normal dealership practice here was ( and still is ) to install license plate frames with their names cast in them.

[Off topic] By the way, how long have you lived in Melboune, Fl. and have you ever been to Titusville? I lived in Titusville from '64 to '71. I tried to PM & email you from the club here without success. If you would like to chat about "the old times" please feel free to contact me through the site here.

Yea it probably is, George. The age condition might support your thought as well. ZCCA stock rules list Frigiking as dealer add-on legit in the class. Your sticker sounds unique and valuable. Post a scan.

By 75 Nissan was installing A/C at the factory for cars destined for the USA.

In 71, they were not. any 71Z w/ A.C. had it installed by dealer or otherwise aftermarket. I have seen stickers that were at least similar to the one described and agree w/ 26th-Z that it sounds valuable to a restorer and a unique part of the history of 240Z.

I managed to take some pics of the sticker. I hope they're not too large.
