I've decided to rebuild the carb heating system and I'm in need of a few items. The PO had left both ends of the tubes unprotected for many years and they were completely blocked with years of gunk. Does anyone know where I can get replacement nuts and o rings for the tube that runs between the two halves of the intake manifold. Thanks

I will admit I am not three brightest bolt in the pile but after doing restore to my antique Asus TF700t table I found out the Z car forum on Google play station is no longer compatible.

Great forum and thank you in advance for any input. Sent from my [device_name] using http://Classic Zcar Club mobile

It'd be fun to get together sometime - even if it's a few of us showing up for Cars & Coffee down in San Clemente to park together or something. Always fun to hook up with owners and we don't really know any here in the area. There have got to be some on here from Orange County, L.A. or the Inland Empire, right?

Hello everyone. I saw this Z being sold locally, but the lowest the seller is willing is 16.5k. What do you guys think? Pics: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nigts04cjxu43zk/AADcHCcK_GI7OftYcYA_Apkra?dl=0 Vids: https://youtu.be/XQtXRAXpH4Q https://youtu.be/pMOAHuQgjy8

I'm new to the Datsun 240z scene I just rescued a 71 240z out of a Ridgecrest junk yard The car is complete and almost perfect besides the half asked paint job and rocker rust. The car was originally red then blue and now silver. From the looks of it, it was worked on in 2007 ish from recipets found in the car. No paperwork no plates just a vin number Vin number is hls30-37893 Car has 280zx wheels with an autopower cage Car has a rebuilt engine with a 5 speed I'm guessing it's rebuilt because of how clean an fresh it looks with it new parts such as dist. Electronic ignition, plug wires gaskets, electric fan, block has fresh looking paint and the overall condition j…

I had a friend tip me off that he found a 240z in the junkyard with bumpers still on it. He saw 240z badges so I know it's the skinny bumpers. I plan to grab the bumpers, maybe the blinkers and tail light panels and the steering wheel. What else should I get? I have a 280z, wondering if I should get the hood or any other parts, I don't need much for my car as it's pretty complete.

I will be painting a 1970 car soon and would like to bring it back to factory appearance as much as my knowledge and memory will allow but I cant remember which bolts were painted from the factory. The body shop wants to paint all of them if they are visible. But I don't think Nissan did that back then. The bolts that run along the inside of the fender that fasten the top of the fender to the chassis (between the fender and the hood). Where those painted or left unpainted? I seem to recall they were unpainted. Correct? The inspection lid bolts were painted. The hood hinges bolts were painted (the hood torsion springs were black) The door hinges and bol…

They've been like this for quite some time now. I just look away when I go under to change the oil. Of course the right thing would be to replace them correct? Do you think they are beyond repair or the consideration of repair? Both sides pretty much look this way. Some of you are probably shaking your head right now. Saying "repair?!" I know some of you have replaced them but I see nothing on how pricey it was. Taking suggestions here. I'm assuming it's a lot of work--remove carpet on the inside so they don't catch on fire, etc, etc. And if better pics are needed I can get her up in the air to take some.

Hey guys, I have been trying to find a decent stock 240z in my area, and think I have stumbled upon one. However, I think the seller is asking a bit high. How much would you guys pay for this vehicle? https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/d/1971-datsun-240z/6427971903.html Appreciate all your help!
