Posted January 21, 20205 yr comment_591236 Can someone tell me what model years are represented by hubcaps with "Z" in the centre, vs "D" Thanks Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/63447-240-hub-caps/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 21, 20205 yr comment_591239 70 and early 71 are D. The rest up until 77 had Zs. Iirc The ones referred to as series 1. The 69 was D I suppose. I'm not familiar with the early cars.

January 26, 20205 yr comment_591447 @CanTechZ found about the closest paint I've seen for the hubcaps and the rear finisher panel. Much easier than the paint match in the "how to restore 240Z" book.

January 26, 20205 yr comment_591463 +1 on the @siteunseen comment. That color is also used for restoring the grill and rear finisher. The secret is the use of the matte clearcoat to eliminate the gloss in the color coat. Here's a close-up of the color on a grill resto.
