Hi All. Our group are doing up a couple of cars to look like the Nissan Works

1971 Safari rally cars.This was held in Kenya, Nairobi, etc. when of course the 240z took the world on and won. We need pictures of the position of the decals so we can reproduce these. We have searched the net and the best we can see are mostly distant, or angled, or car covered in dirt.

Any help with pictures would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Brian.

This site has alot of great photos and info on the EAS Rally Z cars

Rauno Aaltonen was driving Datsun in 1970-1972. He is one of the greatest Finnish rally drivers ever.

Thanks Koalia. Thats really great. Is the first picture of Rauno Aaltonens #5 car a reproduction. We have tried to get SEIKO decals/stickers without success.

We are not sure if we should copy them, and other decals.

Cheers, Brian.

Here are a couple of pictures of the rally Z's at the Zama storage facility. The first two are East African Safari rally cars and the third is the #5 Monte Carlo rally car.

Wow, thats awsome Mike. Thanks to all. We are doing a display of the 1971 event. Will post up some pictures in three weeks time. Should be a blast.

if you need to copy discontinued decals, you need to go to a sign shop or a place that does vehicle wraps. That would be your best source for a reproduction that will give youa decent lifespan, if you cant find a shop local, email me a clean usable file and i'll price them for you. need the size also. mike@signsationsinc.net

This replica was at the convention

Here are a few of the photos I took when the car was on display up in Sapporo a few years back:

Those are great close up shots of the #11 car Alan. Thanks for posting them.

You're welcome, Mike.

Here are a few more, this time taken when the car was on display at Nissan's old Ginza, Tokyo HQ:
