Lol

Does anyone know the actual quality of these filters you can find on eBay and a couple other sites? How do they compare to other popular brands?

Yikes. Not sure if this was posted or not. This car was stolen. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-datsun-240z-125/

I forgot to add these, lol. Hard to judge things by picture.

I'm pretty certain its single stage. If you've ever seen the really fine checking that happens to it, this is what's going on. Zero orange peel.

The paint has fine checks. It looks to like it's original. Thanks for heads-up on the interior. I didn't notice any tape lines. It's a fantastic car.

1975 280Z 2+2. 52,000 miles all original. It has a couple flaws in paint, nothing major, a couple dings here and there. A/C works is what I was told From what I can tell it seems the interior is all original, and that's what I'm being told. I'm a 240Z man, not super familiar with originality with later models, but I was convinced it's all original. $29,000 In Jacksonville Florida If interested, pm me. Not my car, I just know who's selling.

I own a 1/71 car "Series 1", and I had someone approach the car and start pointing at all the incorrect things on my car. The fun part is , my car is all original and unrestored. I just said thank you.

But it hurts so good.

A friend about 30 years ago did this with his pickup, worked pretty good.

No ECU. 71 240 JC Whitney, the good ole days, some the stuff in there was just so horrible. Good memories. I figured there was a GPS sensor that could be included with some units, I'm just starting to the search.

Anyone have a good suggestion to what after market cruise control to install? So many on the market. My first concern would be not so intrusive on the dash.
-
My comment was simply you never know what things will value for in the future. I've sold some really nice 280ZXs over the years that today would sell for $25K, and it wasn't that many years ago. They are really fun cars.
-
I'm hanging on to mine. When did anyone ever think a 280zx sell for 30K.
-
Not familiar with his work on them. I was to understand that there were no adjustments to get them tuned correctly. They either ran really good at operating temp, but suffered hard starting, or they ran terrible but was easy to start.

Flat tops, boat anchors. That's what the nomenclature on Z Therapy website is

I like your car, looks like mine.

1970 240Z Works Rally - the road to restoration
DC871F replied to xs10shl's topic in Open Discussions
I've watched so many videos, over and over I might add of these races on YT. They drove these cars with such precision. I especially like the one in Scotland where they flagged down a passerby to "borrow" the transaxle on the side of the road. -
It's a nice car, I'm lucky to have it. It waited its entire life for me to drive it, and I do.

I'm a professional pilot flying Boeings, but spent many years as an A&P mechanic on the DC-8 and DC-9s for a couple different airlines. I used to fly DC-9s, which was another fantastic Douglas product. That's one tough airplane to work on, but have fixed many with a Leatherman.
-
I'm happy to say this car is an unrestored example, other than a respray several years ago. Well documented 50,000 mile car. Sat in storage most of its life.

Never worked in a corporate setting, but I think I've heard my wife who does work in a corporate setting say many times over the years to (Take it offline). Zed tried to by offering a pertinent discussion on the thread "Z's on Bat and other places", but that trial balloon got popped as soon as it was floated. I really enjoy this thread, I really dont want to unsub. I havnt looked, but is there a specific 240z thread discussing the topic at hand, which I think began with someone calling a car a series 1 or something. BTW, I own a 1/71 car, that was one of the last few made in the image of a 1970, I wont dare call it that forbidden name though.

How much for the Astro Van?
