January 28, 20241 yr Author comment_661482 Also I could use some pictures. I need some shots of the dash area, preferably without the dash to see how all the heater system mounts up. Factory AC would be a bonus. I don't have any of my original disassembly pictures...

January 30, 20241 yr Author comment_661512 So I worked on a few things today. I polished the headlight rings but can't find the screws for the headlight rings... 😞 Did some tinkering on the hatch. Put the rubber bumpers and the plugs in the hatch jambs. Then I started working on the hatch vents. Put the accordion boots into the hatch. Then test fit the scuppers and the gaskets. Is there something that goes in this hole in the corner So with the grills on you can see some yellow inside. So I will black this area out So I have these screws in a bag that say hatch hardware. Any ideas where they go? Here are the plates for under the hinge hatches. Any tips on the install for the hinge boots, plates and hinges?? I also don't know what the hatch hinge bolts to body look like... Also, do the hatch stoppers at the bottom use screws or bolts? Anyone have a picture?

January 30, 20241 yr comment_661514 The hole in the inner corner of the hatch is a drain and needs nothing. Picture of hatch hinges may be of help as my car is a total stock restoration.

January 30, 20241 yr comment_661517 Also, I have updated my 240z fastener information at this Google sheet. The hatch hinge hardware is in the body section. The other related hatch hardware is in the body exterior section.  I need to organize things a bit better in the sheet.  Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/55369-1971-hls30-14938-lily-build/?&page=74#findComment-661517 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 30, 20241 yr Author comment_661522 @inline6 I had thought about taking your spreasdsheet and adding thumbnail pictures of each fastener in my "spare time". Also in other news the Courtesy Nissan parts store is evidently now closed... Not closed, moved to a different website...

A very good friend for all of us - David House, has worked there for years, hope all is well for him. I heard a story that the dealership has changed owners to the Clay Cooley group.

January 30, 20241 yr Author comment_661534 Those are great pics Jim!! My concerns on Courtesy is a "There's just no money in it..." type business decision. They have been very supported of the classic cars for a long time...

They have been very supported of the classic cars for a long time... I think it may be a change in business priorities. I met Steve Richardson over 25 years ago. I believed he was the manager of the parts department & Z enthusiast, and that was the hey day of buying Z car parts from them. I noticed the inventory of unique parts faded after he left. Without a champion in the parts department to support the older cars, it can be a tough sell to continue the effort.
