Considering complete restore 1970 240z

So that can easily belong on a 1970?

The car can be of the 9th month I suppose, or maybe 10th

I’ve decided to do the work myself. I’m going to enjoy the car long term and learn some things. Thank you.

Is that webbing material available to rebuild my seats?

Here's a good thread to read on seats.

Thank you. I’m all over that thread. The seats in that thread don’t have the webbing like mine. The rest of the thread dies apply.

Yeah, sorry I didn't notice the webbing of your early car vs the metal on hardways seats.

Is $350 a reasonable price for a series 1 clutch assembly.

I don't think that there is such a thing.  If the parts are Nissan new old stock, they might have added value.  But "series 1 clutch assembly" doesn't really mean anything and doesn't say anything about the brand or what the parts are.  How about more details?

Rockauto.com an Excedy clutch kit is $112.00. I believe Cliff @siteunseen has an Excedy clutch in one of his Zs and likes it.

It’s off a series 1 car being parted out! Sorry for the poor communications

Makes more sense.  The odds of it being original are slim, and if it is it's probably worn out.

It looks like you're doing a restoration so maybe even original mechanical parts are important.  But $350 for a worn out clutch disc and pressure plate seems a bit much.  If that's what you're looking for, original parts, make sure you check the markings and labels.  I can't believe that somebody would even ask that amount for those parts.

Get pictures, post them, and we'll tear them apart.
