Z's on BAT and other places collection
The steering wheel is later and the console as you mentioned. The post says he has some more duplicate extra parts. Not sure what parts.

Sunvisor variations
Oh great now I have to check all of mine. I thought the pockets were the change, but shape / length is another one. Interesting red and white are 1 month off the rest.

Good question, It too much for me, plus I don't have room ......😉 It is really impossible to say without going there and looking at what is there, or not there. On the surface in this economy, I think it is a little high too. I see a lot of later year pieces in the car. The seller says he has other parts. There are a lot of unseen parts that go with it. I really don't think the "Now" seller knows as much about these cars as the brother / mother / dad?. It has been collecting dust for 23 years.

Am I looking at a monster vacuum leak here?
I checked eBay and found no N42 Non EGR's currently for say or sold. I checked some other individual sites and they all said sold out. 2040-parts.com list one for $500 but the site looks shady to me. Another on Instagram, also $500. beware of scammers!!

Shameless plug 😎: I have a few manifolds if you end up needing another one.

Door glass bump stopper 280z
I checked the door I have from a 78 and there is no bracket in the door like the one's shown above. There is no glass in my door so I am uncertain if there is some bumper mounted to the glass frame / support. I would say the bumpers ZCD sells will not work in 77 - 78 doors.

Door glass bump stopper 280z
1976 and 1971 respectively, I think I have a 77 - 78 door I'll look again. I know those doors were different in a lot of way from the earlier cars. It was noted in the other thread that it might be a typo in ZCD's description.

Door glass bump stopper 280z
My mistake before. The pad sits in the rear portion of the door. Slightly forward of where the the lock cut out is. There is a raised bracket that has a rectangle hole in it for the spring clip. I hope these pic's help. Pardon the rust.

Door glass bump stopper 280z
Without it I expect the metal frame on the lower part of the window would hit metal to metal. I'll see if I can get some better pictures after work today.

Door glass bump stopper 280z
When the window is rolled down the bottom edge sits on the rubber bumper. there is one on each side towards the front. Often the metal clip rusts out and it falls away from the mount hole. I couldn't find a good pic online either.

Quarter panel new outer rubber ...not fitting in the channel!!!
I used a long wide, padded ratchet strap though the hatch. Soapy water, patients, and a helper to pull it back and get some screws in. It worked well and no scratches. Still not a fun job. (I did clean off all the old glue and debris off the frame.)

Smoke coming from head light switch
If you are still having issues with the blinkers, The wiring goes through the hazard switch. You might want to clean that one too. Perhaps you already have 😁

I’ll be a definite maybe on this. I am on vacation and can’t check at the moment. I am home next week if you have not found a set by then.

Brake booster push rod adjustment
Do you have the rear shoes adjusted to spec. If out, they will eat up all your pressure before the fronts engage fully. Just an issue I ran across in my brake system.

280z storage compartment inserts
A pretty simple pattern. The radius corners at the middle fold is .375" Here are the measurements. Looks like Roo has you covered on a set.

I'll get them out this afternoon and post the measurements.

280z storage compartment inserts
Someone is buying, there are 7 items in his sold listings. The padded inserts are just spray adhesive stuck in there. Kind of like the headliner. I have some out if you wanted measurements.

Thanks for the confidence vote, but it is not my sale. I was just sharing the pictures from the OfferUp site as Craigslist did not have any. The amusing comment was in both ad's though.
