Rare Z/Datsun Parts Research

Featured Replies

Hey guys,

I'm looking into parts that would be suitable for reproduction via 3D modeling/Printing. Things I'm looking into are things like rare emblems, mirrors, shift knobs, and accessories.

My current project is reproducing a set of Suichuuka "Flower" Mirrors as seen here:

You can see progress on those here https://www.instagram.com/rl_design_fab

 

I've also had success 3D printing Stainless steel Pillar emblems and would like to make a set of these rare versions which I think were on the 432 Z:

If anyone has reference images for any rare parts that might be good candidates for bringing back to life I'd be super happy to hear your ideas!

Thanks!

License plate lamp housing. All of the ones I have found used have been warped all to heck.

I believe I have an extra one back home. I'll try to grab it next time I'm there. Should be an easy one!
