Hi All,

I have show coming up in a couple of week. Need a couple of obscure parts to avoid getting deducted points, like last year. So, anybody with parts cars out there have the following parts that they could, ah, er, part with (no pun intended):

Towing hooks and mounting bolts for a '70 240Z

Red and silver "Bendix" label off the top of the brake booster

Let me know if you have these.

Thanks,

Marty

Marty,

Give these people a try they may have what you're looking for.

For the label you might try Banzai Motorworks in Maryland. Mike Mcginnis has had several of the original labels and underhood markings reproduced for the cars that he restores professionaly. He has also had many of the rubber parts and other things made up as well.

Contact info for him should be: http://www.zzxdatsun.com or (301) 420-4200. He is a good guy with alot of knowledge and has always come through for me.

Mike was the first guy I called. I bought all of his other decals, but he did not have this one. So, I am still looking. figured it would be easier to find one on a parts car then finding someone who made new ones.

Thanks for the ideas. Keep 'em coming! Still haven't located one yet.

Marty

Hi Marty,

Is this the one you need?

Don't get too excited 'cos they come from Japan ( not cheap! ).

Doesn't show up too well in the scan, but the background is mirror-silver with a red screen-print on top.

Regards,

Alan.

So there you go, print it, cut it out and stick it. They may not even notice and you've saved yourself some $$$.

I may do the same, where does it attach too?

Alan,

That's the one I am looking for. Can you forward the source it can be purchased from and the approximate cost? Thanks.

George, the decal goes on the top of the brake booster, right in the center.

Marty

Are the hooks different on the 71 or 72? If not, you pay shipping and you can have them off one of my cars.

Rick

Thanks Rick. I'll do some checking to see if they are the same and get back to you.

Marty

Rick,

I sent you an email to the address listed on your post. We can work out the details off-list.

thanks,

Marty

You might give the ZBarn folks a call for the towing hooks. They are in Tennesse, so shipping might be quick. 1-800-247-2795

Marty,

I'm going to send you a personal message about that Brake Booster decal situation.

Please take a look at my message.

Alan Thomas.
