Yellow78 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Where the stripes on 70's Z's flat black or glossy black. Thinking of putting racing stripes on want to make it look as stock as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 No "stock" 240 came from Nissan with any kind of striping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharaohabq Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The 240Z decals were matt black, white, or yellow/gold, I think... I don't think they were stock, likely dealer option. But yeah, I don't remember any stripes from the factory over the hood/roof either. BRE Racing had some nice fender stripes, but again not stock.

morbias Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 There's also the zap 280z package from '77, pretty sure the stripes were matt finish on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharaohabq Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Right, I guess 70's Z could mean any S30. somehow I read that as 70' Z. Morbias is right, The Special edition S30's had stripes, so we need OP clarification. Based only on the OP statement: "Where the stripes on 70's Z's flat black or glossy black. Thinking of putting racing stripes on want to make it look as stock as possible." I'd infer he's not looking for info on either the Zzap or the black pearl, So that's back to the only dealer option I know which is the 240Z decal on some 240Z's. In anycase I think most anything fron that era was Matte.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 News: Black Pearl was port optioned, not sure on ZZZap Z, but that may well have been a Nissan North America Port Added Option as well! They left Japan without stripes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Have the Nissan North America HQ in your back yard for 20+ years, and talk with all the guys in the service department that were there when the car was new (and for that matter the company!)
