Your english is great! Compared to my Japanese but the dates coincides with what I have.

The dates you have written on your pictures.

Thanks! What I am amazed about is your tool still has a paper , and it is written in Japanese ! The date stamp on the paper is corresponding to your car I think, 25? Feb 1972 . And just for your information, description from the top , they are ,

車両昇降用 (for lifting a car up and down )

ホイルナット締付用　( for tightening a wheel nut )

タイヤ止め　( tire stopper )

上記工具収納用　( for stowing the tools listed above)

Hey @kats what's the vin number on your June 1972 240Z? If that's not too personal. Mine was built then too and it's HLS3069??? someting. I'm just curious. Thanks buddy! 

Cliff

Cliff , my June 1972 car is a Fairlady 240ZG , so it has different chassis number , 

HS30-11861 , L24-114120.

Your 72 240Z reminds me my ex 240Z when I was temporarily staying at Bakers Field CA .

Fantastic! Thank you so very much.

I looked and my vin# is 69,6972. Kind of neat ending in 72.

Boy oh boy. All I can do is apologize and blame my elderly age for these mistakes. It has nothing to do with the beer I've been drinking all afternoon. Hey, it's my day off work!

My car WAS built when the tire wrench was, February 1972.

I'll find a good Fender video and send you. Cliff

26th-Z came with a parallel wrench which is marked "NISSAN (nissan hamburger) MOTOR 31".  I'll get a pic

Here's a Fender Strat and Gibson Flying V. You've probably seen it already but it's worth seeing again.🤗

Hi Chris, super cool wrench! What does “31” mean? I saw a alphabet letter D on a Nov 1971 240Z . 
And I believe you said there is a difference between early and late on the jack handle , didn’t you ?

It is interesting! Each “ NISSAN “ has different font .

Just some references for the tools , they are excerpted from Fairlady Z owners manual

Nov 69

May 72

late 71 ( written in English, probably for military officers stationed in Japanese base , etc) .

Please enjoy some unusual things for the tool stowage area.

And we can see the lady ‘s grip looked natural for the perpendicular tooth wrench in the Nov 69 version, on the other hand, the lady’s grip looked good for the parallel wrench in the May 72 version. 
 

And I think it is interesting the spark plug wrench which was standard for Z432 is seen in the Fairlady Z owners manual English version , no other manual showing it .

Correction “Parallel “ to “perpendicular “

My 7/70 has the bottom, perpendicular, style. It has the Nissan hamburger and the letter M but no Nissan Motor stamping.
