I was actually thinking of buying this to tinker with this winter.....Do I need it, errrrr no but it just seems like a good deal. What do ya think...... http://knoxville.craigslist.org/cto/2038101143.html

The crush method worked great, the caps are on. I can't believe I missed those threads, I did a search but must have missed them. Thanks fella's......

Hey guys, I just want to make sure I'm putting this on right (can't find my diagram). Does the pcv hose goes from the tube extending from the block to the pcv thats on the intake manifold? ....is that right.

Real quick question.......On the plastic tool covers does the large cover go on the drivers side or passenger. I can fit both on each side, but completely forgot where the small one and the big one go. Also, after installed do you still see a gap on each side. If anyone has a photo please post one. Thanks, Randy

Thanks Mike.

I put the Konig rewinds (15") on the car the other day and the wheel centers snapped right on the rear wheels, but the front will not go on at all. It seems the front centers are just barely being kept from snapping on by just a few mm's. Will I have to take the wheel off and find some type of spacer to go behind the wheel? Or is there another way that may be easier. Anyone ever have this problem? Thanks for any assistance.

Thanks Jim, Another member is sending me one. I will look around for any additional emblems and if I find some I'll shoot you a PM. Thanks again for the map light offer. Randy

Hey Wally, I have a lot of photos, however I haven't posted many yet as I was waiting to get finished. I don't have #3324, mine is #797, but it is white and blue like yours. Send me a PM with your email address and what photos you may need that might help with your car. Look forward to seeing your 240, here's a recent shot of mine but I still have a few weekends left........Please ignore the dirt, missing wheel center, missing rubber, etc. With a broken ankle my progress has been almost halted.

I really like the darker blue on the engine, it looks perfect with the CAD yellow pieces. Your "refreshtoration" is starting to looking like a "restoration".........

Sure Todd, You may to need to paint them to have them look 100%. Just PM me your address and I'll get them headed your way.

Thanks John, I sincerely appreaciate it. Please let me know if I can ever do anything for you. Kind regards, Randy

Thanks mgmoreau, This board, or I should say all these great folks here have helped me with so much I could never say thanks enough. My mechanical skills are some what lacking, and yet I can fix most of my issues (usually) because of the knowledge that this site provides, so in a way it's my way of giving back. To all those getting parts they went out today via Priority mail, no worries on postage. Also, most parts are gone but when I go through some more boxes I may find some more stuff. Cheers, Randy

I'm sorry, they went out yesterday.

Sorry olzed, Although if you send me a plane ticket I'll hand deliver new one's...... Take care, PARTS UPDATE ALSO.....Folks, add the brake master cyclinder to the gone list.

Thanks John, Just let me know what I owe you. Regards, Randy

They are yours Jim, just send me your address for shipping via pm. Take care,

Johnny P, datsun emblem is still here, shoot me a pm with your address and I'll get it on its way. Ivygreen, I will send you the window cranks and shift boot. The boot has a tear but you could use some silicon or other sealer, it would certainly be better than nothing. The other pieces are already gone from an earlier pm. Send me your address and i'll get them out. Ivy....just noticed your in Knoxville, feel free to drop by or I can mail them. Here's an update on whats gone. See the crossed out items in photo and add the outside door handles.

The door opener pieces are gone. Also found the rear hatch "datsun script" but the pins are broken off the back so you would have to tape/glue it on.

Thanks, I forgot about the 'pay it forward" thread. Well, here are a few items that I will never need (hopefully) and if they can help others just let me know. It will just be on a first come basis, if you want something first poster has first dibs. PS....A shameless plug, but I am still looking for a map light lens and cover. I have the white housing.

As the restoration of my 240 draws to a close I am left with numerous misc parts. I would love to trade for things I don't have or help other Z folks with something small but wasn't sure if the mod police allow that type of listing in the open forum. I'm not wanting to sell stuff or I would post in the classifieds, but would love to start a parts list of left over stuff for others if its deemed appropriate. EDIT...see below for some parts, if interested just let me know.

Does anyone have a lens for a 240 map light? My assembly is good but the lens broke. Would be happy to buy, or trade if I have anything you may need. Thanks, Randy

Gary, Here's a link to an old post of mine regarding my experience and cost with Maaco. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=30772&highlight=maaco I used the base/clear (which is their most expensive). Hope this is not considered a "thread jack" but thought you may find other info helpful if your considering Maaco. However remember they are all individually owned so quality may differ. Good luck, PS.......Motorman 7, the car looks GREAT!

Hey Jared, Great seeing you today at the Z car show, the 240 looks amazing (and sounds great). I had no idea you were selling it, if I had known I would have acted interested in hopes of a test drive........ j/k Looking forward to your article in Excellence, and the upcoming GT3 / Boxster Spyder showdown on the Dragon. See ya on the 6th, Randy

Here's a photo in case you need one for reference.

Thanks fella's I actually need both the rubber and the plate for fuel line also. (I forgot about the fuel line's) I'll check into the sources ya'll mentioned. Thanks again.
