Merlin,
I just sent them.  Let me know if the quality came through OK.
The numbers are 99, 46, and looks like 41.   The 46 and 41 car look like BRE 
cars, the 99 does not have the BRE stripe down the front fender.

Hope this helps the cause!  I do not need any datsun stuff as payment, I am 
glad to contribute to the cause.  Thanks for the offer though!
Best Regards,
Jim
