No, the problem is not as serious but need some attention. Once in a while, screws become loose and fall down as heater control knobs or seat belt pillar post holders. Some suggestions to have these old screws to stay thight. The car is fully original, never restored and close to concours condition. Thanks, Richard

I sold these to a gentleman on ebay. Some of you may have seen the auction. I was told by the former owner of my Z that they were a dealer option. He is good friends with the original owner and knows a lot of history on the car. I didn't like them or need them, so I sold them. I was suprised by how many people watched the auction and made off-auction bids. Now that the buyer has them, he says they are not for the Z. This could be true, I suppose. They are not as long as factory thinner mats, but they are very thick rubber and could not make those bends. I have seen aftermarket rubber mats for the Z that are the same size and shape. I hope they aren't from a truck! :eek: …

i have a early z and im looking through the victoria british im looking at the interior pieces. i have a early 260 and it favors the 240 more with the pieces i pulled out. so my question is can i use the 240 Vinyl with the diamonds. i know the doors have different handles. my main concern is the rear quater panels. they only have them for the 240. the 260 and 280 parts list does not have it. but i pulled the panels out my 260 but they where kinda cracked.

I live in west los angeles. I just got two quotes for body work on my 1973 240z. The original color of the car is Datsun color code 115. It was repainted in red by the P.O. The car has a scratch like dent on the passenger door ( not deep at all) one ding on the rear tailight panel and one ding on the left corner edge of the hood. No rust. I love red 240Z's but the P.O replaced the dash with a crack free one and the engine compartment and wheel wheels are still looking good with the original blue metallic paint so I decided to go original. The interior is white ( aka beige or off-white). I need to have that restored as well. Any suggestions for body and interior shops in t…

I have wanted to start this thread for over a month now. This past summer I attended the National Z convention and while there I saw a Datsun competition seat in a 1970 1800sss. I was thinking that it was an option that the original owner chose, but the two sets of holes may be an indication that this seat has a few lives. Maybe one set matches up with a Z . I was very enthused not only about the seat, but the Bluebird as well. I could not believe that I even saw the seat in person. I talked with the owner of the car, who by the way is a very nice gentleman, and he said that he would sell me the seat when he replaced it with a Recaro. About 4 months later I bought…

Got sick of looking at my faded 'tan' vinyl on the strut towers (looked really bad after I had the seats retrimmed) so I did something about it. I took a sample of the best (read:unfaded) vinyl to a Vinyl and auto interior repair shop and asked them to match the colour and make me up a litre of whatever they would use to recolour faded vinyl. It wasn't cheap (A$88 for 1 litre). They also suggested preparing the surface by washing it down with Toluene( :eek: )...but I try to avoid keeping industrial strength carcenogens around the house... so Turpentine was the acceptable alternative. Anyway, I removed most of the read interior trim, washed down the vinyl with turps an…
