a factory service manual or maybe a haynes manual at the minimum

Bought this - devouring it now.

Look at vendors on my website http://fiddlingwithzcars.wordpress.com

Many of them have Christmas gift ideas (MotorSport Auto and ZCarDepot to name a couple). MSA has a fender cover with a Z emblem. A good timing light and a good multimeter are very useful. This multimeter can also be used as a tachometer https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U3HFFH. That can be useful for tuning. Also a carburetor synchrometer is a must for the old SU carburetors: https://www.google.com/search?q=dellorto+syncrometer&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjj4fnXu4_YAhVK4IMKHZVpDLwQ_AUICigB&biw=1920&bih=949.

Finally, videos from Z Therapy ( @Bruce Palmer) can help him keep his Z running in top shape.

Don't forget feeler gauges for valve adjustments.

 

Steve - thanks for the greatest advice - in addition to other things, I did get him the fender cover and the synchrometer.

I will chime in for Daves relay work and I have had my combo switches done by him for both my Z and my roadster. His work is unparalleled!  Quality, value, and better than OEM.  Dave has saved more Datsuns than anybody.
