    Dealer installed AC System parts value

    by Jaymanbikes

    I removed this system from my 72 240z. The compressor would start when turned on but it didn’t have any Freon. Didn’t care to have it in the car. My 280z is my summer car. Does anyone know what these parts might be worth? I’ve done some research but haven’t really found much.

    A "Fun Run" blast from the past. 1974

    by jayhawk

    While Motorman7 is restoring my '73 240Z, (thread titled: We're bringing back the flat tops!) I've started digitizing the slides I took of the car I've kept since I bought it new in 1973. I came across the pictures I took of a "fun run" in 1974 sponsored by Jack Gubrud, the owner of Gubrud's Valley Datsun in Mt. Vernon, Washingon. That was where I bought my car in April, 1973 after returning from a 10+ month deployment to Vietnam aboard the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk. This was on Sunday, August 4th, 1974 from Mt. Vernon WA (north of Seattle) over the North Cascade Highway through the Cascade mountains to the town of Winthrop, WA. I believe almost all of the Zs …

    fuel returned to tank

    by qz16

    I am in the process of restoring a 1973 240z. It is powered by an L28 (twin 3 screw round top SU) with a 5 speed gear box. The engine has been completely rebuilt and is now back in the car. I was in the process of refinishing various parts including the fuel filler and cap so I did not want to use the fuel tank as a source. Instead I supplied fuel from a 2 gallon jerry can, I do not know precisely how much fuel was in the can. Thankfully the engine started almost immediately. As you know there is some fiddling to be done when you don’t have an electrical harness and your remote starting while trying to adjust carbs and timing. Well, it was really a very short t…
