Today i just got a huge load of Nissan / Datusn Color sample charts. I’m currently in the process of scanning them all and will soon rework and update / repost that post, where you can download them all as high-resolution pdf scans for free.

Those from the 80ies are not really related to my cars but they are really nice with actual colour sample snippets glued into the print and real cut-out fabric samples so you can also feel them. This particular chart even came with a service bulletin letter by Datsun Suisse SA explaning the changes in the colour lineup for the Nissan sunny.

The same seller also sent me a few Nissan “Star” magazines. those are swiss customer magazines from the 80ies. Some of the stories in those magazines allowed me to update the Story about Datsun Switzerland with additional info.
