Yet another Update! BRE-240Z has sent the AC warranty manual(something I had never seen before) and is working on the next part of his donation to the cause!

Update! Arne has sent PDFS of: Datsun Consumer Information Guide, 1st April 1971, C10E-ALLMU2 Hitachi Radio ModelTM-1081ZB Webdawg, I appreciate your idea and your suggestion! If there is an issue with file size, I will setup a drop for our use on HLS30.com-no limit to file size, and I have already paid for it. Will

Here are our intransit contributions to this point: Zaks Z is sending a scan of the '72 FSM Webdog is sending some wiring charts for a '75 280Z Go240Zags is sending the manual he pictured and discribed earlier in the thread. Arne is sending a scans of a '71 Owners manual, AM radio manual for a '71, a '71 Datsun Consumer Information Guide, a Service and Warranty booklet for late '70 Zbane is sending Owner's Manual and Warranty/Service Booklet for a "79ZX Nota280 is sending scans of a 71 Fairlady Z owners manual, CST-113ZB radio manual, and Consumer Information booklet ChrisA is sending a '71fsm and a '75FSM that are already prepped to scan! Please let me know if I have theZe wrong! Will

Here are the owners manuals I have collected for scanning for this porject, If you have one that isn't here and would mind loaning it out or scanning it, please let me know! We are scanning everything in PDF, and the owners manuals/color brochures in high resolution JPG as well.

One more note, Several of you have expressed the capability to scamn the documents yourself-that really helps!!!I am after two file types for the DVD, PDFs for all of the documents, and in addition, seriously high resolution JPGs for the color brochures and owners manuals and anything you think would be good to have that way. To keep my email address our of the spammers, I will PM it to those of you who can scan your own documents, and not display it here, It can accept emails up to 10MB in size, and I will be clearing it out as things come in, if you would prefere to send a CD/DVD/memory card, that will work too(memory cards will be returned). Thanks for your consideration and active participation! Will

I have PMd everyone so far, and now I want to add a note! When you send these precious manuals, please be sure to include your return address, your name as you want it in the credits of the DVD, you Phone number so I can let you know they arrived, and let you know when they have been shipped back, and please! Ship them using proper packing methods and tracking and insurance! I recieved the first submission and it came poorly packed, with no contact info, and no tracking and insurance! Fortunately, the owners name was inside on a bookmark, and the manual sustained no damage, and was not lost in the mail. Pack them like they are important! If possable I will be using the same packing to go back(Unless I think they need better protection). We can't be too protective of these 30 something year old ducuments and materials. Thanks for all the submissions and help! Will

Thanks Kats, I had researched the threads looking for exactly the pictures you just posted-a front and rear shot! Can you tell what manufacturere made them? Thanks! Will

Great! The more we have the better! Will

26thZ pictured them earlier in his second post-they were available through Datsun Compettion parts. Will

Bob, here you go... there are more... http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12021&highlight=jdm+switch Will

Great! I bought a new card reader tonight and damn if it isn't defective-I can't post the manual pics I took at lunch-I'll keep after it. Will

I think the lights that switch there are actually running lights that are individually switched(L or R side) for safety in pulling off the road, several threads have discussed this, and the fog light switch was actually on the dash in what lookes like a conventional cigarette lighter position. I'll try to find a thread and post it for you. Will

Warren, I'd jump all over those if I were you! Will

Most excellent-and appreciated! PM sent! Will

Congratulations! Will

I am having dificulty with my card reader(again) so I will pick up another one this afternoon and post the pictures tonight. Will PS, Thanks Mike!

Here is a list of what I have collected for this project. Confidential Factory Product information 1974-1979 Technical Bulletins 1969-1972, 1973, 1975, 1980-1985 Technical Bulletin Cross Reference Guide 1979-1984 Introduction of the Datsun 260Z Model S30 Series Dealer condifential Parts Price List AO 1/1/2000 1969-1973 parts manual-USA/Canada FSMs/Supplememnts Undated Gold cover 240Z SSports Chassis and Body 1972 Chassis and Body 1972 Engine 1972 Emmission Control System Heater Model S30 Series Genuine Datsun Hitachi Car Radio Model KM 1520ZC 1973 FSM 1977 FSM-Currently on loan 1978 FSM 1979 FSM I have low bids on an '82, 76, 71, and a '70 I will picture the owners manual shortly. Will

We may well! I'll be picturing what I have now, and adding what is to be donated from who, and picturing it when I receive it. My collection for the cause will go up after lunch today. I have several manuals, but as 26th Z pointed out in annother thread, there were occasionally two or more manuals made for the same year-I hope we can get examples of all of them for the DVD Will.

Thanks Mike! I can replace pages for sections-I'll get back to you this afternoon. Will

I bet somewhere in the breakroom there is a pile of coffee shivering alone in the dark.... Uh, Mike...I hope there is some more matching yellow paint somewhere! Will BTW, I don't know if those come in stainless, but I am sure you could have it chrome plated-but just half A$$ paintin' it with silver rustoleum would just look totally narley-I forgot you were getting ready for a show!!!

I think, Steven wins the boordom contest-he spent more time with his answer! Will

Brian, I'll get back to you this afternoon-Thanks! Will I will be listing those who will and have donated here as well, so we know what we have and what we need. I am still keeping a watch on ebay as well, so if an inexpensive manual pops up, I will be watching.... Will

One other bit of information. This manuals or short manual can and will be scanned with out damage. I am happy to scan owners manuals, radio manuals, small(50 pages or so) manuals one at a time, but I simply don't have time to scan several hundred pages one at a time day in and day out, so the large manuals must be cut loose to scan them-or you can scan them and donate the scans. Having said that, If you have a special manual or you would like me to consider, please pm me, I can make an exception as long as it does not become the rule. It pains me to cut up a manual, that is why I have been buying shopworn versions, and not cutting up pristine manuals. I will be heading home at lunch time to photograph the manuals I have collected for use in this project, so that everyone can see what we have and what we need. Those who donate will also get their name on their donation on the DVD, and a credit on it as having made the DVD possable. Will

Enigma, I have a couple of readers, a digital camera, and a digital camcorder, I also have a full set of fische-though I have not checked out its condition. Give me a week or two to sort out all of the details, and I'll get back to you when I have a clear idea on how to use them. Thanks! Will

Hi Everyone! I have been collecting S30 and S130 FSMs and associated documentation for almost a year to scan into PDF format to help Mike make a new club DVD. Mike has a copywrite release from Nissan to allow this DVD to be made using virtually any Datsun/Nissan document. I have collected several FSMs, owners manuals, Supplemental manuals, parts manuals, and such, but we need more for the DVD to include all models. If you have a manual you can donate to the cause, or the time and inclination to scan a manual you have, please let me know. Those who donate will recieve a free copy of the DVD for their involvement. The manuals I collect are not pristine, generally I have found well used but clearly readable versions to cut the spline off fo fascilitate automated scanning, so If you send a manual, please understand the pages will be freed to make scanning faster. If you would like the manual back, I will return it, but unbound. I will picture/list those manuals which are either already scanned or are in process tomorrow(need batteries for the camera). But the selection includes FSMs, Confidential Product Information, a Confidentail Price list, Suplements to the FSMs, Owners Manuals, Owners Manual Supplements(Radio, etc...), Parts manuals, and several quite interesting extras! If you have a genuine Datsun/Nissan document that you feel should be included, please PM me, The ultimate goal is a DVD with as much S30/S130 information on it as we can muster. I would really like to include overseas materials as well, but will have to rely on Donations to accomplish their inclusion. So if you lot across the pond have something to donate, please jump in. Pm me with questions, several people have already jumped into this with me, and I will expose their donations with the photos tomorrow. Here is a chance to do something for the club that has done so much for you, and to gain unlimited access to documents you might never have even known existed! I promise you will not be dissatisfied! Will
