   Early Inner Shift Boot

   I am gutting the interior of my early '71 and find the transmission tunnel has a very small hole for the stick and no provision for a hold down ring for the inner shift boot. I have no idea whether or not the boot that was in there is even out of a Z, I suspect not. My question is: What does an early boot look like and how is it held down? Glue down or does it rim in the hole itself like a fire wall grommet? Any help appreciated. Best Regards, H Houghton

   I just bought a 73 240Z and have doubts as to if it has the original (or correct) speedometer in it. What years came with the speedo that starts at 10MPH? Thanks

   Hi, this is Jim from Osoyoos in British Columbia,Canada. I was wondering if any one knows where I can get information about the rear molded panels in my car.They have cracked a bit. Can I just cover them with fabric for now to customize my interior? I'm redoing my interior and I would also like some information on rug kits and floor mats. Thank you for the input about my decision to put in a sun-roof. I think that I will hold off on that choice.You all have convinced me.thanks for now,Jim.

   Did 280Z Center console have 2 ashtrays?

   My 280Z (11/78) center console has a rectangular hole at the back. Is there supposed to be an ashtray there too? There already is one just ahead of the armrest, between it and the shifter? I don't mind having another ashtray; it's a good place to stash coins. But would it be correct? thx

   Different Armrest?

   Does anybody have any knowledge of this armrest? I can't say for sure it came with my car (#1321) or was something the previous owner added. It's actually kind of nice, but if it isn't original, I'll start looking for a replacement. Thanks, Bob P.S. My first time trying to attach a picture, so if it doesn't work, my apologies! armrest.bmp

   quick help with seat vinyl removal...

   Hey all, I have been trying to remove the vinyl seat covers for the past few days, and cannot for the life of me get the four large Phillips screws loose which hold the seat back/reclining mechanism to the seat base. There's no rust or corrosion, but those guys just won't budge! Humble's book says to use an impact driver, and shows a photo of a guy hitting the screwdriver with a hammer while trying to unscrew them, which I've tried without success. I don't have access to air tools, so that's out. Any other ideas? I'd really like to avoid the upholstery shop, but only for pride and pocketbook reasons. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Steve

    Too Intense Restoration

    has anyone ever used any of the interior reproduction pieces that too intense restoration sells? I was looking at their carpet kits, seat re-upholstery kits, and sunvisor kit. I really like the original design of the interior pieces, and want an exact reproduction. Also, I noticed that TIR only has the full black door skins, and I have black interior with grey diamond vinyl, so I need to get the door skins that are grey in the middle and have black as trim. Anyone know where to get reproduction diamond vinyl as well?
