Let’s find built date of jack and tire stopper

[26th-Z]

I noticed this difference between the jack spanners I have.  The top one on the first picture is early fabrication.  The later spanner has a '3' in the casting

I does look like 1955 was a new start for the company.

Perhaps they started a new numbering system at that time, after recovering from the war devistation.

Thank you , the book is very interesting and full of useful information. Just great !

Hi Chris , thank you for the pictures, Her Majesty brings her tools , could the tools be later production than they should be ? 

Also nice to see the red handle has some unique variations, interesting !!

The difference of NISSAN hamburger,

Early one has “ NISSAN “ in the hamburger, 

later one doesn’t.

I want tools contents paper for my Z432.

Does anyone know if US cars came with tools or was it an option?

 My late 71 had wheel chocks, lug wrench and a jack with the two piece handle. No tool kit.

Hi Jeff , I think US cars could have a set of spanner / plier / screw driver etc , but I have never seen them in a US car .

Wonderful! O. K. D is 1969 November 4th for the Jack

9 L is 1969 December for the chocks.  It is nice to see these examples as they happen to have the tools a little bit earlier than car like yours .Kats

They are original to the car. I do not want to restore them….only original once.
