Roadster lion logo
Trying to find a good digital version of this logo to recreate it in vinyl but it isnt out there readily available. Then i see it is the same logo peugeot uses. Anyone notice that? Does anyone have a good photo or digital file i could use?

Re: Roadster lion logo
thats the funny thing, there are no wings. Been doing some investigating all morning. Turns out it is called a Rampant Lion and is used in old time heraldry. Seems to be used in Scotland a lot

Re: Roadster lion logo
That is a patch that someone independently made, that is not official datsun merch.jrusso07 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 29, 2018 7:13 am Your right - lion keys don’t have wings but the patch does...

this looks more official to me. I believe that patch is just someone trying to make money off of the datsun owners.

Re: Roadster lion logo
I remember ( in the late 70s) a shift knob in some 610 2 drs that had a lion like that , maybe port installed they were walnut and a orange top with the lion in it.

Re: Roadster lion logo
There is no Datsun affiliation with the logo. At best it may have been Prince Motors which made the Skyline which later got absorbed by Nissan.

Re: Roadster lion logo
My roadster is named Mothra. I have paid an artist in Chicago to use his art on my car. I have a good digital copy. Maybe you could make a few vinyl stickers for me? I'm not sure what size I need yet but they will be smallish. PM me please so I can send the high resolution copy if you are interested.
