February 15, 20169 yr Author comment_486555 Not yet. It is in the mail and I have a tracking number. I will post some shots of the inside and sending unit when it arrives. The fuel pump assy is a spare basically. Unknown condition but the car it came from only had 50,000 miles on it.

February 15, 20169 yr Author comment_486557 Just relieved to have found a good tank at a reasonable price. The previous owner sounds like a real nice guy too.

February 15, 20169 yr Author comment_486561 Almost forgot about the stuff I found a week ago too! I picked up a set of tail lights and two spare valve covers plus some of the tail light surround molding from local 280Z owner. Mostly just spares for the shelf but I will try and experiment a bit with the valve covers. I would like to TIG weld up the top valve case vent and relocate it to the back of the cover against the firewall, also remove the bossings for the spark plug wires and then either polish it or ceramic powder coat it. Maybe paint another valve core the same as the body colour with polished lettering on top. Will have to see!
