I see them on ebay from time to time. I'm looking too.

Your's are the Scallops right, '71 to '76?

That's right. I need four. I'd rather not have to spend the $1,300 - $1,500 I've been seeing on-line.

Confused. That site says: We do not carry any parts for the Datsun ZCar.

i was kidding.  Never mind.

Is that just shiny undercoating or oil in your previous pictures?

That's all shiny undercoating just like it looked in 1976. The engine only has 360 miles on it.

I've mentioned this in other threads not sure I did here,  But check those fuel injection hoses for cracks on the ends.  They crack lengthwise and let fuel leak.  I had raw fuel squirting all over my hot engine one day soon after I got my car.  Luckily, no ignition occurred.  Not real visible without a good eye and bright light.  Age alone might make them weak, like tires.  You might have to change those to modern hoses if you want to run the engine, even though the originals add to the time capsule feel.
