Bulldog Z Posted February 20, 2008 Share #2 Posted February 20, 2008 I would consider adding some sound deadoning insulation. Second skin makes great insulation. I put some in my 73 240Z, and it really helped with noise, heat, and vibration. Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingZr0 Posted February 20, 2008 Share #3 Posted February 20, 2008 You thought about seats Nah jus kidding What Bulldog said. You might consider these seats here, only bad side is they don't recline :tapemouth Link ->http://www.zccjdm.com/ Theres a anothere style but I cant find it right now.

WingZr0 Posted February 20, 2008 Share #5 Posted February 20, 2008 Well your dash looks in better condition than most and steering wheel is NICE My suggestion is NOS Parts, start with center counsel for about $180 cheap, Shift leather boot, E-brake handle and boot (saw NOS set on ebay but don't know the part numbers) Dome light, and all new interrior vinyle should wrap up the inside cosmestics You can get NOS door panels on YJ for about $400 to $800 so at least you know they're out there. What color scheme and rims you going with? ~Z~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EScanlon Posted February 20, 2008 Share #6 Posted February 20, 2008 Remove the Dash, - remove instruments, open them up and paint the insides of the cases with a bright white paint (Polar White).- check the condition of the cowl drain tubes.- attach tar-mat insulation to the underside of the cowl bucket and the firewall.- wash out all the defroster tubes, fresh air tubes going to the eyeball vents.- clean out the fresh air vents, use a clothes dryer long cable brush to clean from the front of the car all the way out the vent.- inspect, lube, re-gasket if necessary the fresh air vent valves.Remove the Heater Plenum- Open it up, remove the heater core, get it checked for leaks.- clean, paint and refurbish all the soft sponge seals on all the doors / flaps- check the condition of the blower motor and it's squirrel cage- remove and replace the fresh air vent assembly from below the cowl- check the condition of the fresh air vent ductwork- don't forget to use clean plumber's putty when replacing the fresh air valve back.- wash the triangular/square tubing connector to the heater.- re-lube and check for smooth operation of all heater control cables- check condition of short hose from heater core to valve and also the other heater hosesSeal off all the round holes in the rocker panel inner wall after making sure there is no rust hiding in the rockerSeal off the holes in the rear quarter inner panel after shooting POR inside the fenderSeal off the space around the rear strutsTheres a bunch more items, these are just off the top of my head.HTHE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingZr0 Posted February 20, 2008 Share #7 Posted February 20, 2008 I just went through your photo bucket pics Mr. Fujistubo aka Fire Medic. Thats a great list you posted there EScanlon, thats one for the to do books for sure. Not sure if this was mentioned but get a shop to replace that inner hatch panel to shore up the structual integrity in the back. Not sure simply using POR will work as you need rigidity there. Thats about the only major rust I saw. Other than that it's looking solid :rambo:. ~Z~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
