I'm just curious if anyone has bought a car from the Atlantic Z car club, or know anythign about the cars they sell? I've talked to them a couple of times, and they seem pretty straight foward about everything. I keep thinking back to the last time I bought a car(Firebird), and the guy seem really nice, and the car seemed great from all the pictures he sent me, and i ended up buying the thing, andgetting ripped off bigtime, which i didnt realize until i had the car for a couple months. It cost me a fortune to restore, and finally i just got fed up and sold it when it was finished. Sorry for the rant. haha. Any info on atlantic z? As alwalys, Any and all help offered is g…

Driving the other night I hit one of those steel plates road crews put down after digging a hole. It was sticking out pretty far and I didn't have time to slow down by the time I saw it, hit it, and the car bottomed out really hard. Right after the car started running terribly and a huge cloud of white smoke ( steam mostly ) was billowing out from behind me. Checking things out, at first I thought the headers had hit the thermostat housing because I was missing a manifold stud right there. After re-sealing the thermostat housing water was still gushing out, soaking the intake/exhaust gasket and making a huge hole. Obviously I was going to have to replace the gasket now,…

Sorry to be an idiot, but I didn't mark the small gauge wires when I removed them from my starter solenoid and now I don't remember where they went. I've included a picture of the mystery wires. I think that I can assume that the blue female spade connector goes to the S terminal, but I'm not sure if the ring connector goes to the B (+) or M terminal. This is a '73 240z with an L28 engine and a 5-speed 280zx transmission. Thanks for any help in this moron rescue.

I noticed the plastic cowl on steering wheel was warm the other day. I removed it to find that the short harness with the module secured to top of the iginition switch was heating up with the lights on. More specifically the green and white to the left rear of it. This wire has also been glued, repaired at the plastic connection plug. I know I need to trace the wiring to figure out where the short is, but still think this short harness should be replaced if possible. It is obvious from the solder connections on the module that it has been hot before. Still wondering if this was part of the cause, or result of the melt down a couple of weeks ago. Thanx in advance for…

My car hals been leaking some kind of fluid on the inside of my car for a while now, and I thought it was power steering fluid, and I thought I had fixed it with some stop-leak fluid. But it is still leaking. And I just caught it dripping, and its bright green. Its leaking under the dash on the passengers side. How can I fix this?

This is the power relay from my '72 Datsun 240Z found on the passenger side kick panel. It somehow burnt out and caused several wires to burn out or those wires grounded out and then burnt out this relay. Either way, it's bad and I need another one. I can't find it anywhere! I'd prefer a new one, but if anyone has a used one that's good, it'd be happy to purchase it from you. Please let me know where I can get one... soon!!!

Hey guys, I'm new to the classic Z forum and I'm currently researching to find a good condition early 70's Z. One thing I've decided is that I really like the one's without the side door protector molding. As I've never had one of these cars, I'm not too familiar with which models did and didn't have this molding. Is the molding something that can be easily removed? And if so, how hard is it to make it look like it was never there? I would appreciate any advice someone might have. Jonathan
