Chrome trim a bit smaller not quite the same. But who would notice.

Line of stitching a little wider think it will look better when fitted

Seat back good match

I'll compare the covers and post a picture. It's tricky buying stuff over the internet, no idea of the quality you cant look before you buy. There are some more bits I need but have noted some price differences between Midwest and Classic Datsun Tool Box Lids 55.00 46.80 Hatch Vents 80.00 56.32 Plug Lead Retainers 10.00 6.00 Push Pin Rivets 1.40 .70 Hood Rubbers 24.00 8.60 I should find out if parts are geuine or reproduction but rivets are rivets? Any of these parts available in Aus? Classic Dat on left Nick

Took advantage of the strong $ a few months ago and bought some seat covers and a few other bits. Arrived today and they look great. Excellent service, packaging and price from Les at Classic Datsun Nick

Looks good, imagine it would go . Underneath a bit rough , who cares, looked solid if not used on track no problem. Posted on several sites I guess if you have a Z related business and have a project that is of interest to Z owners post (if moderators don't like they will delete) Nick

The early Australian cars didn't have the front repeaters. Nick

What is the name/code for the air cleaner orange? Cant match mine as it has been repainted. Nick

To achieve the same rolling diameter as the tyres originally fitted (175SR14) what size (would like a wider tyre) would I need to fit a 61/2x14 rim? Nick

Think you might have to pay that per wheel !. Nick

Hayden Take advantage of the strong $ a pair of covers from Classic Datsun will set you back about $370 Aus at the moment, postage inc. You also have to pay duty and gst. Not to hard to fit ,close to original by all accounts. Will be ordering some shortly plus some other bits and pieces. Nick

Hello Alan The circle at the bottom is a casting date. The Japanese safety mark is on the the front, so I guess made in Japan. The inside of the rim is painted bright blue. They weigh 12 lbs. Nick

Alan Thanks for the information on the wheels. heres a snap of the markinge on the unbranded wheel. Nick

To fit spacers(3/8) to the front hubs do you need to fit longer studs, can you use the rears as they appear to be longer? If not then possible to buy longer studs and from where? Nick

What is the difference between type A and B? also do the wheels allways have the logo ? I have 2 sets of wheels 1 with the logo and another set made in Japan but with no logo. To look at, the wheels look the same. Nick

I'm just in the process of getting a set (2 covers) from clasic datsun in the US $370 Aus inclusive of postage. Will have to pay duty and GST on arrival. But good value compared to getting re upholstered. From all accounts covers are very close to the original and not too hard to fit. nick

Yes the Classic Datsun , had some good reports on them $370 at todays exchange rates including postage. But you have to pay duty then GST on the purchase price, postage and duty,still a lot cheaper than a trimmer! Nick

Am in the process of getting some replacement seat covers and was wondering if I should replace the padding? I think this is horse hair? I guess it is original? Will this stuff fall off when covers are removed? Nick

Thanks Victor The "horse hair" is about 2" thick on the seat back and is combined with foam in the seat squab. Nick

Victor Thought I would take advantage of the stronger Aus $ and get a few bits and pieces. The Classic Datsun seat covers, I see you had no trouble fitting, how was the material match? Did you use the the original padding and horse hair?(the brown fibreous material) Its hard to make a decision without seeing the finished product. Nick
