seems as tho I remember reading a post about someone with a lose and sloppy turn signal, this is what worked for me. I first ran a #31 drill thru the signal mount running it thru with the arm in place, then I ran a 6/48 tapper tap thru the first part thru the arm and most of the way thru the bottom,I do that so it tightens down without compressing the arm so it will move freally.Worked like new when done.You may have to substitute another small tap, size 6/48 are used mostly for gunsmithing

The vinal on my doors are in very good condition, but the pressed cardboard backing is very poor, is there a vender that reproduces them? If not has anyone tried to use them as a mold with plenty of release agent and a couple of layers of glass, seams as tho it would work, but thaught id cheack here first Thanks matt B.

Just wanted to let you know that you were right,My father in law dug up the original paperwork from the dealer,and along with the dealer mags they had installed a rear sway bar aftermarket option, sure wish he had them install the ac.Thought maybe I had something rare o well its still a nice car

Your right about the vin HLS30-05491. He was the original and only owner and he said that he never had that mod done,maybe it was a dealer upgrade? He had the slotted dish mags as a dealer option. thanks for your input guys, you guys seem to really know your facts Im sure I'll be back for more advice. starting to take alot of pictures of the process, once I figure out this site a little more Ill star posting them,I have two pictures posted with my info for now

there is definetly a sway bar it has to be factory my father inlaw bought it in 1970 when he was stationed in okinawa flying for the airforce he had it shipped home, its been his everyday driver ever sence,he finaly got tired of no A/C so he gave it to me,I took some pictures of the parts laying kind of how the go, one end attached at the control arm in what appears to be a factory location, the other end was clamped to the hanger for the back inner control arm mount, the bar is 18 MM

My early 1970 240z is in bad need of bushings all around, I'v been searching the net for kits but none of the kits list sway bars for the rear of the 240, just 260 and 280Z's did most 240's not come with them? Mine was shipped from Okinawa in 1971 Also anyone no a good online source for bushing etc. Thanks Matt

I have a early 69-70 240z, I bought what appear to be a good bushinf kit for the shifter that had a little extra play in it. When I took it apart cleaned and inspected, found theirs no way theses parts could be right, My ? is did they come with a diffrent transmission in the very Early models or am I just stupid

Just had a 70 240 Z given to me by my father inlaw, he baught it new when he was stationed in okinawa where he was flying transport planes out of veitnam,he had it shipped home, it was his daily driver.It's in pretty good shape I think, been painted a couple of times never a rust problem he just wanted to change the color.The motor is all there and original, frame seames to be rust free, little rust on driver floor , interior has seen better days . thinking about doing a rebuild strip it down and put it back together replacing cosmetec and mecanical parts as needed, not a (as new )restore but a really clean good drivng car vin # is 5491 so I guess that makes it a fairly early car
