September 16, 20195 yr Author comment_584122 Does anyone have suggestions on where I could find 4 NOS hub caps? That's the one thing this car is missing.

I'd rather not have to spend the $1,300 - $1,500 I've been seeing on-line.  Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/62501-brand-new-280z/?&page=8#findComment-584137 Share on other sites More sharing options...

September 16, 20195 yr comment_584141 i was kidding. Never mind. Is that just shiny undercoating or oil in your previous pictures? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/62501-brand-new-280z/?&page=8#findComment-584141 Share on other sites More sharing options...

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

September 16, 20195 yr comment_584144 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.
