im in need of a center console for a late 1971 240z.

lots of 260 and 280 parts to trade.

Bill, when looking for this part, be sure to specify late 71 or early 71. As the later, mid year 71 cars had the 72 style console with the ash tray behind the shifter

thanks vic.

When you say behind...how do you mean that.\? My z is from build date of 8/71 and this is my stock console

True Bill! We got a mix of parts. I believe, if we broke it down to serial numbers, we'd still would not find a clear delinelation point. My last Z was most likely in the same group on the assembly line, yet it was built with the 72 console and the short pig tailed fuse box.

Billcapp:

That is the EARLY 71 Center Console.

There is a Series1 console on eBay:

It's newly listed, but I'm sure it will sell for some unreasonable price.
