I found 2 240z's. They were found by a friend, he took the pictures. I haven't been up to see them, but he checked for rust, and according to him there is some surface rust, nothing that goes through. The owner told him they are both 73's. The picture of the emissions tag has a 1972 date on it, so one or both may be different than 72. The owner said he drove both of them to where they are parked. He had the seat out of the red one, and they caught on fire, so he has an insurance claim. I told him I'd look for a couple seats online so he can complete his claim. I told my friend that I'd offer the guy $6500 for both of them, and I'd check online to see how clos…

My body man is finally getting around to starting my Z car wall sculpture. Thanks to Zup for going out his way in getting the driver’s door. I don’t think he needed to apply the parking brake on his parts car that he got the door from to keep it from rolling away. No one will steal it either. I’ll update as it progresses. ?

I have about 2k ohm resistance and no heat being generated (a few ma at best flow). Don't like the idea of a grid replacement kit that sticks on, and the minute amounts of conductive repair kit only allow for a very limited fix. With my VOM is seems like most of the grids are simply non conductive even though they seem intact. I was thinking of using an air brush and masking tape to mask off and reapply some kind of conductive paint. see link for a decent amount of paint to work with. https://www.amazon.com/Caswell-Copper-Conductive-Paint-4oz/dp/B00A6FO6G8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1536694226&sr=8-1&keywords=caswell+copper+conductive+paint I was ho…

Good afternoon everyone not sure where to post this but i am just curious to what you guys think my 71 240z series 1 value would be? i see prices all over the place and contemplating selling it because we might be moving in the next 6 months or so and i don’t have a truck or trailer to haul it anywhere and i could use the money. original L24 4 speed runs and drives but i think the carbs need tuning or rebuilt as it sputters a bit. brakes need bled but the car was previously restored. minimal surface rust on the body, the car still looks fairly good at least to me. interior is in nice shape other then the common dash being cracked. Thank you guys for everything and i …

Does anyone know of a source for White diamond vinyl interior kit...? I hired a "professional" to install the kit I bought almost 2 years ago and he butchered all 5 pieces. I ordered a kit on December 1, 2020 and have yet to receive it...nor have any of my inquiries as to a delivery date been answered. I am wondering if anyone knows of a set that might be for sale. Thanks...Ryals

During one of my question threads, someone recommended that I provide my car information with VIN #. Do I just provide that information with every post, or is there somewhere in my profile that I can enter it? I looked at others' posts and don't see it in their profile. I'm good either way, but I'd like to be consistent with what you more experienced folks are doing. thanks

I thought that our CZCC members might like to contribute their thoughts here. Who knows? We might inspire someone out there to start making some of these items. My nomination would be: Differential Mount Insulator for the early-design cars with angled rear halfshafts (Nissan PN 55415 E4102) This part was used up until 71-06, so it was installed on about 30,000 Z's. If 5% of those cars are still in running or restorable condition, that would mean there's a ready market for perhaps 1,000 of these early-style diff mounts. To the best of my knowledge, there's no way that any of the later-style mounts can be modified to fit. Typical owner solutions seem to…
