NISSAN'S ROTARY ON SHOW SOON
Nissan Motor Company will unveil its rotary-engined car at the Japan Motor Show, to be held in Tokyo in six months.

Mr. Katsuji Kawamata, president of the second biggest car firm in Japan, says it is hoped the rotary-engined model will be marketed one year later.

In the meantime, about 40 to 50 cars assembled on a test production basis will be tested for the domestic sales, he said.

In October, 1970, Nissan obtained patent licenses on the Wankel rotary engine.
