Published on 24th October 2019 - the 50th anniversary of the S30-series Z's public debut at the 1969 Tokyo Motor Show - a new 'Mook' (magazine/book) from publisher Motor Magazine Mook:
'Fairlady Z Story & History, Volume 1, The 50th Anniversary Chronicles'.
Put together and edited by Mr Koichiro MORITA of Motor Magazine Ltd in Japan, it has a nice balance of content with period photos, interviews with key figures, coverage of the 'Kaku U' test team's exploits in the USA/Canada during late 1969 and some nice circuit racing & rallying history. A Volume 2 is to follow some time in the future.
Production values are high, and it's in large format with a weight of over 800g. ISBN978-4-86279-505-2 C9476 and priced at 2,700 JPY. You can order through Amazon.
Yes, it's written in Japanese. However, the photos are all in English...
I might be a little biased as I contributed 6 pages of content (which has been laid out really nicely by the editor) mostly of never-before-published photos and background story, which - so far - seems to have been well received.
