hi again. i have an early 260z that PO has hacked to bits seemingly currently the car has what looks like honda accord seats(see pic of mounting) problem being i'm 6'3" and my head touches the ceiling. i just picked up a pair of supposed "240/260/280 seats" and i beleive they are either different style mountings or i'm missing pieces. they seats i picked up have mounting points on all 4 sides that look to be factory, but are at 45 degree angles. the car has nothing to mount these to. are these the wrong seats? are there bits missing from my car(again)? if these are the wrong rails, does anyone have the correct ones they could part with? thanks in advance -K.

I'm repairing my panel ( cracks, holes, paint, etc. ) Plastex worked really well on cracks and holes. It's sandable. Apparently the whole piece was chromed, then the black was put on. I sanded the whole thing with 80 grit sandpaper. It made the chrome look really nice. No scratches at all. The pics. don't show how good it actually looks. The sandpaper took the black off the peaks of the texture and left black in the valleys, on the textured section. I think it looks pretty nice that way. I also used the sharp edge of a small screw driver to get paint off. That didn't scratch the chrome either. Some sections will need chrome, but I think it looks good and I didn't polish o…

Hi all: I need to figure out what pieces I need to re-fill in these two kick panel areas. Does anyone have pics of what these areas are supposed to look like? And/or can list what pieces I need to be on the look out for? See pics of what mine look line now. There is nothing left on the driver side and on the passenger side, the fuse box does have a cover but that's about all that is there. I need to fill all of this in and get new carpet. Any help/advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi All I am not sure what the samll factory screw/bolt looks like that mounts the seat belt holder to the seat on the early S30 seats. The screw in question is used to hold a small plastic 'J' shaped hook to the window side of the seat back rest near your shoulder. This hook is used when you are not using the seat belt, it holds the seat belt clasp in easy reach when you are about to use the seat belt instead of fumbling around on the floor looking for the clasp of the seat belt. A picture would be great. I hope I have explaioned this well enough and not confused everyone reading this thread. I am not sure if this was only for the Australian market or other markets like t…

The vinyl on my scuff plates is pealing at the edges with rust underneath. I'm trying to get the vinyl off them but it is otherwise really really stuck on. Has anyone found a trick for getting that stuff off? Some sort of solvent or scraper or something? Thanks Gary

In Wick Humble's How to restore your Datsun Z car, he mentions that there were hard board covers that went on top and around the sides of the rear shock towers before the vinyl went on. He also says the early cars didn't have them and mine certainly doesn't. Having a hard time picturing what they would look like, does anyone have a pic of these things. Thanks, Chris

I'm interested in buying a new glove box. My interior looks so good now, that I would hate to open the glove box and have someone see that torn up mess. Can they be installed without disassembling a bunch of dash components? It woul be very cool if it just slides in from the front. Can someone give me the steps invovled?

i'm in the process of repairing my seat from a 72 240z. i was going to replace the foam and covers but when i got them out and had a closer look i changed my mind. the basic problem was the strapping had failed. the passenger seat looks new with no rips or wear. my friend who is in the classic car restoration business has already got it repaired. the problem now is the driver seat. it's ripped on the seat cushon and torn by the leaver for the back release. i called some seat cover vendors but they won't split up a set. can't really blame them. i'm hoping a fellow member might have a spare driver cover to sell. even just the bottom will help. is there a difference between…

I am looking for the clip that holds the cable for the air intake box door to the side of the air intake box (i.e. box attached to blower housing). I have an early 74 260z but I believe all S30 air intake boxes are the same from Aug. 73 onwards. Thanks

Can someone suggest a source for the hazard sticker I have on my 5/72 dash? All that I've seen don't say "HAZARD", just ON/OFF. Thanks, Dave IZCC#508
