should all 240's have rear sway bars
Only the 73 model was had the bracketry installed. The earlier models had nothing, except the holes in the rear control arms.

Yet another good looking eBay Z - 240 this time
I'll bet that car has more problems than appears to be in the photos. Of course maybe this is the new lowest mileage 240Z, my or my what will a certain person do?

saw a 1970 240z in the junk yard
You took the damn thing home didn't you? You didn't just leave it there for the vultures to circle overhead did you?

Doesn't enlarging the ducts, lower the velocity?

OEM rear muffler reproduction
Can you get a 2-1/4" exhaust system in stock form? I've read that 2-1/4" is the optimal exhaust diameter for a stock Z.

K&N Filter
I just installed a new K&N filter, and I think my car run a bit better now. SU's are certainly not winter carbs, but I think it's running noticeably better then before.

OK....I'm slow....somebody explain this.
Yes, in the beginning the manuals were separate.

OK....I'm slow....somebody explain this.
You're going to have to be more specific than that. Are you concerned about the initial bidding price or what?

Which job is better???
The condition/configuration of the car, when you get, may also have an effect.

Forged wheels, probably twice the cost I'll bet.

heater valve change .. drain Antifreeze???
Hey, change the two hoses and firewall grommets while you're doing this. Don't do this job twice. Sometimes the screws holding the valve in place are rusted from leaking antifreeze. Check this out before you loosen the hoseclamps.

Choke Knobs
After 1971, Datsun moved the ashtray and had to make a whimpy choke mechanism that everyone is having problems with; I mean a real POS. The 1970 and 1971 choke mechanism is beefy as hell and almost never breaks. In 1972 and after, they moved the choke knob to the side of the console, causing it to crack the console all the time. Install lots of steel and epoxy to fix it. Make those choke knobs out of aluminum, no kidding.

how can you tell a 240Z from a 280Z?
Look at the frame rails. They are long on the 280Z. The 280Z bumpers are completely different.

Mounting emblems
Well I don't know how popular it is, but what's wrong with putting them on like the factory did it?

Proud new 1970 240Z Owner!!
Rings??? How did the car ever run, with the old valves? Does this make sense to anyone?
-
Mounting emblems
Why would anyone not want to put the emblems on their car the way the factory did it?

Wiring harness questions - early '71 240Z (long)
Paypal is not the cause of identity theft anymore than any other secure site. Of course it's your privilege, but I think maybe you were a bit hastey.
