Man - that was a very nice "donation" to say the least... Now you'll have to keep us Posted on the progress you are making on the restoration of your Z.

Maybe I need to raise the prices on some of the NOS Parts I'm putting on EBay..

Good luck,

Carl B.

Hey Carl,

What's your seller ID? Share it with us so we can all check out your auctions.

As smart as the guy who gave them to me looked, I don't think he realized what he actually had. Or maybe he did? I sure didn't, but I do know now thanks to this thread.

And now I feel like I left money on the table (damn greed.)

Who knows what would these have actually gone for if I didn't put a "buy it now" price?!

Only a few things on EBay right now - but I'll be adding stuff every day for the next few weeks.. mostly NOS stuff, but a few harder to find good used parts as well.

Some smaller stuff I may just group into Package Deals - as the packing and shipping costs are so high. I don't want to sell 4 hose clamps for $15.00 then charge $10.00 to pack & ship them. {if you know what I mean}.

thanks for asking..

Yep, we've already got a guy in Houston that cover that area only too well! I've got you in my watch list. Looks like I need to check out that Happy Rabbit.

Hi Jim:

The "Happy Rabbit" was just something to use as a trial run.. although it is pretty neat for a Kids room etc. Local Artist does them.. But it still hasn't sold... humm...

Nonetheless - An NOS combination Choke & Hand Throttle Assembly - sold in 2 minutes $595.00

Sold one of three - NOS Wood 4spd Shift Lever Knobs for $95.00 and a pair of NOS 240Z 1/4 Panel Emblems - METAL for $249.00 - all sold in 3 or 4 minutes of listing.

It would seem that if anyone wants to find something on EBay - they better have something set up to search the listings every few minutes - and notify them when whatever they want - is listed. Maybe that explains why we never see really rare items go to auction.. and why the headlight covers sold so quickly..

FWIW,

Carl B.

Carl, Do you have a 5 speed shift knob? can't seem to find one.

No - none that are for sale. Not wood anyway..

Where to find one brand new in the bag? Would you know Carl?

How much did those covers sell for? Someone here would have paid more.

Headlight covers sold for over $1500.

I would be too worried about rock chips and cracks with those headlight lenses. IMO they aren't worth using on a drivers car. Maybe a garage queen that u never drive. Otherwise no.

The one's that are original to my car have a few chips here and there, no major cracks. 41 years and counting!

I don't know where you would find another one - and I'm not giving yours back!!

I looked for years for one for the BRE Baja Z and Montezum wouldn't sell me his. He gave it to me!!

So 71Nissan240Z got a great deal on a Choke/Throttle Assembly...thanks to Montezuma.

I had offered a set for $1400.00 some time ago - but no one here was a buyer. I sold the set I had locally for $1400.00 {no EBay and PayPal fees, no shipping}.

Montezuma - if you need / want anything just let me know...
