I am in the process of getting out all the rust..........but continue to day dream of the day I will get it all painted and pretty again. I am not sure if I should repaint my 1971 all orginal 240z the factory 905 red or change it to a color I would perfer more, maybe a factory silver..... I removed everything inside but the dash in my rust survey. If I choose another color I will have to remove the engine and do the engine compartment also. the engine comparment only needs minor paint touchups now. Not sure what the added cost would be for a painter to pull the engine. Hell, I am not even sure I can afford a good paint job. those of you who have gotton nice paint jobs cou…

I was just looking at the piece of plastic that covers the hand throttle slot. It is very brittle and has broken on one end. About 1/4" x3". What are you guys using to replace this? Looks like it is some type of thin plastic. Thanks, as usual.

I expect to get in some carpet today, that judging from the 2" sample they sent me may be a suitable replacement for the early Z loop style carpet. The carpet has the rubber type backing. I have an original drivers side floor mat that I will be trying to replicate for ZUP, and you guys to take a look at. If it meets the requirements, I think that with the correct patterns I can reproduce complete sets with the correct serged cutouts for those who are interested. We'll see how this first mat turns out and go from there. Bryan

I found a deal on a complete dash cover for a 260z, but I have a 240. I thought the dashes were the same . Is the shape different or what? Is it possible to use the cover for the 260 on a 240? I appreciate your help.

I've spent the last 2 days applying "eDead" brand sound deadener mats in the floors, tranny tunnel, and rear deck of my 78 Coupe. Now it's time to do the doors. I've read all the posts in the archives, but still am unsure exactly how to proceed with this part of the job. Several of you have said that you installed the mats to the "inside of the outer door panel." To me that means you had to cut the mats into small pieces and stick them onto the outer panel by squeezing your hands through the small holes of the inner door panel. Even then, there are areas of the outer panel that I don't see how you can possibly reach due to no holes within reach. What am I missing here?…

I just purchased the quarter glass panels, carpet kit, headliner, and rubber seal kit from Classic Datsun Motorsports (all in black). I probably could have gotten carpet cheaper somewhere, but I decided to stay OEM on this. Besides, I'm happy with the others things I've purchased from Les. I had a good headliner until I hit it with the sharp edge of an icescraper one morning. I could have just punched myself in the throat at that moment, man was I PO'ed at myself. If I can ever get my car painted I'll install the new stuff. I never imagined body and paint work to be the most difficult task in the universe. Apparently the new interior panels will not exactly match m…
