Up for grabs here is a truly rare item, a key with the word "Interpart" on it that I believe to be a louvre key. I put a Chastain shadow louvre on my car but this ket won't fit it. If this is something I need for my 1970 240Z someone please enlighten me to so I don't give it away but I can't imagine that I need the key. Yours free, I will even pay postage though I imagine it will be quite a bit for such a large, heavy unwieldy item.

I'd like to offer up help with providing hardware. I have parted out several Z's and have drawers of hardware. I have kept all the unique stuff and a lot I might never use. So drop me a line - I might have that specific bolt for your car.

I have a pair of after market plastic door mirrors that came with my Z that the previous owner had installed. They are the ones on my car in the avatar picture. They are available for shipping costs and include the four phillips screws (two for each mirror) that mounted them to the car. They have turn signal lights forward and rear facing which the original mirror did not have. These mirrors have two flaws.

1. The mirrors flop around and tightening the adjustment screw to make the mirror secure is only a temporary fix. A drastic, but possible solution might be to make sure they are pointed the way you like and then glue the hidden ball and socket mechanism in that position. Gluing in only one spot might make them re-doable if the glue could be cut off and re-done. This glued joint would not be visible with the mirrors on the car.

2. The rubber boot keeps popping off the mount on the car of where it is supposed to stay. It does stay on the mirror okay. There is a lip on the rubber boot that is supposed to keep it in position but it keeps coming off. A possible, fairly drastic solution would be to glue them on to the mounting base and then poke tiny slits right where the two screws are to allow removal with a phillips screwdriver.

This steering wheel is available for shipping costs. The weight for shipping will be 39 lbs plus at least 5 lbs for the box, figure a total of 45 lbs to be on the safe side. It was on my car when I bought it and did work until the horn button rubber deteriorated. I put an original steering wheel on the car. The Nissan emblem was in the middle of the rubber that deteriorated.

scrunch things up to make post smaller

I have an original to a 11/75 - 76 280Z rubber bushing that goes in the steering column to give away. I also have one I had made from a material called Fabreeka, it is a hard rubber impregnated layered cloth. I have one on my car now. I installed and had them made back around 1979.

If any one is interested let me know.

Here is a picture of both.

bunch of random stuff from my 78 280 - all are being offered for the whopping price of $0.00 to my forum buddies who have been so helpful in my (many) times of need...

Battery Tray

Bumpers & Body Panels, Bumper Shocks, OEM springs (the painted ones are shortened by 2 coils) aluminum hatch louvers, and the discerning eye will see a set of tire chains to fit the z - Never Used!! don't ask... it's beyond me, but they were in the back when i brought the car home... also some "cling-on" window shades

cold air intake & snorkel

center console - some damage, see below

hood louver rain pan

radio face plate + beautiful knobs (really, they are nice), a window crank, 2 door latch inserts, a courtesy dome light

Rossiz, good on you, nice stuff to give away.

Sawdust seems to be a reoccurring theme in your pics.

ah yes, sawdust...

can't seem to keep the shop clean - funny thing is whenever i'm in it, i seem to have a project to do that takes precedent.

happy to give this stuff away to the folks on this forum who have been so helpful and patient with all my questions and emergencies.

Does anyone know if the the door latch inserts from a 280Z fit a 240Z?? I am missing the driver's side on my car.

Marty, I think they will. You can also spraypaint them with plastic paint if you need them black.
