76Datsun280z

Stephen (Sblake01) put a link to it in the first post. Click on the blue "here". It's mounted on the left side on the kick panel right under the dash on the drivers side with two large connectors. Here's a picture of it.

It's mounted right under the dash on the drivers side. It has two large connections plugged into it.

Congrads, sounds like a heck of a deal!

Looks like somebody else got it and is now listing it, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Incredible-1978-Datsun-280Z-California-Survivor_W0QQitemZ360030885037QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item360030885037 Anybody know by chance what that thing is that is sticking up on the side of the bumper?,

You may also want to give the underside a nice pressure wash and clean it up a bit. Otherwise, what a nice example of an original!

That's what I've always thought too.

I wonder what the performance is like after they add all their equipment on to it vs. what it was when it was stock.

I've been enjoying reading about the history of these cars, very informative. Alan, you should write a book!

Nice to see some more people joining in on this!

This would be great! When I first got my car, both were missing and I found out that they can't be purchased from Nissan, so I had to buy a couple off Ebay. Since it's not one of those independent parts you can, it would make a great part to have produced for just this situation.

Those guys are great!

I don't mean to stray the topic off topic, but I'm curious as to why the Fairlady pictured has one yellow front bulb and one clear?

And the front of it looks a little wide.

Revolution Wheels might look nice,

As Dave knows, I'll be attending too, I think my dad is going to try and come too. Hopefully we can get a few other people to meet up so we could all drive in together.:classic:

Congrads on your new car! They are a lot of fun!

I'm sorry about that guys, that came across a little racist. When it happened, my dad and I tried to speak to the mechanic about what he did and we really couldn't do to his English. I wasn't trying to imply that people from an ethnic backround are bad mechanics, but rather from my experience you can't speak to the mechanic about the work he is doing on your car which in opinion is pretty important I guess.

On a side note, don't take it to sears for your Z's sake, they don't know what they are doing, nor do their "mechanics" speak English!! I took my Z there about a year ago to have them install a new battery and they reversed the battery cables when installing the new one all which caused a big ordeal and we had to take it to an electrical shop to have the electrical damage fixed all of which Sears payed for of coarse. I'm not ever letting them touch it again, or any car for that matter.:nervous:

Good deal, sounds like she's going to get fixed up!! I know you mean! I've haven't been driving my Z for a little over a week npw because I'm getting the rear bumper rechrome. I sure miss driving her, but the GTI is fun too.
