A very interesting 1967 Fuji catalog for the domestic Japanese market.
More catalogs here:
All in Japanese but tons of fun to explore.
Last fall my friend Keith submitted some photographs of his 1984 Touring Series III that he restored:

ScottMy 1973 Fuji "Finest" dressed mostly in Suntour Superbe with Nitto and Sugino accents. A full restoration, this frame desperately needed a repaint and new decals. VeloCals came thru once again, even matching some of the decals reflective qualities. There is some artistic license, the "Fuji" decals on the down tube are usually not red, plus the type face matches later years but not the 1972. Also, the decals separating the chrome and paint on the fork and stays have been added. The head badge, the Fuji "Feather" was not found on the '72 or later years. The 1971 model of the Finest and the models that were sold in Japan sported this head badge, I decided to pay respect to the history of Fuji ... and their continued use of the "Feather" branding to this day.
A very pretty piece of bike jewelry from my friend Keith's recently acquired Touring Series V. Plus, this spring and summer I'll be sharing some photographs from other Fuji owners plus a few of my own. Keeping checking back for the following:
