#1 DATSUN Accessories for your 1200
ddgonzal Posted on: 2021/9/25 22:26
Which ones do you want?

This owner went into the dealer in 1971 and was quoted prices for all the Accessories (these are Datsun dealer prices for North America, could be Canada or USA)

I just noticed the dealer stamp on the cover. It's from my hometown! Bel-Kirk Motors. So those are USA prices

In 1971 I got my first car ... in a round hotwheels rally case ...

So in 1971 a new 1200 cost $1850 in USA. The median monthly income was $750. So even $15 for an accessory was something

I know which Accessory i would have purchase.
The Stripe. I would skip three dinners out to buy it

No, not that one

Quote:
3/4" SIDE STRIPE KIT, '''Part Number 99990-00109 (white) * 99990-00110 (black)''' [14.00]
Thin line side striping to add a subtle touch to the 1200's beautifully sculptured lines. Side striping consists of a 1/4" stripe between two 1/8" stripes for a total slim-line 3/4" stripe. 25 ft. of striping provided, all in high quality "Scotchcal" vinyl. Available in black or white.


THIS ONE
Quote:
"DATSUN" SIDE STRIPE, '''Part Number 99990-00107(white). * 9990-00108''' (black) [16.75]
Bold "DATSUN" side stripe adds sportscar flare to the 1200. Makes the car look lower and longer. Stripe is top quality "Scotchcal" vinyl. Each letter is formed with individual pieces of tape to let the original car paint show through for a clean, neat, perfectly colored letter! 71" long, available in black or white.


The DATSUN salesmen wrote convincing words! Makes me want to buy it. Not like the brochure writers who mostly wrote glib or obvious descriptions

Then i read this description in the Datsun 510 Accessories brochure (same part number as the 1200):
Quote:
Letters are individually formed allowing the original paint to show through.
The red coupe in the previous photos appears to have a rough eBay special sticker -- looks similar but is not really. The letters printed on the vinyl and don't let the paint show through

This 1971 Coupe brochure photo shows how it is supposed to be

Look like you are right. The fake sticker has white stripes above the black center area

The genuine datsun stripe is all one color
