I have a "B" 4sp that could be used for parts. I have yet to open it so I would be in new territory. Car was in flood waters so...???? who knows.

Scammers
Hopefully yes, as it look like they are back with a vengance.

Scammers
I was bombarded with the Spam ads as well, I reported a couple of them and it appears Mike has them banned for the moment.

Modified Su Carb linkage ?
That side hooks up to the emissions components that normally sit on top of the balance tube where the bolts are not holding anything. Most have been removed long ago.

Painting rear tail light housing (77 280z)
240's were metal, 280 went to plastic. I would not recommend putting them in the oven. I am not sure about reproductions, I seem to remember a FB ad for some made of metal but shady looking outfit and expensive. They come up on eBay from time to time.

A few 280Z parts needed
I'm coming up with about 5" diameter clamped. The side to side is 1" and the up/down is 1.75" Here are pics of the resistor too..... If you can find a pic of what you need for the linkage I can look for that too. I will PM a price based on what I'm shipping (weight and size)

A few 280Z parts needed
I have this canister bracket off my 82 ZX, funny the part numbers I looked up was a 14915-N3600 for ->78 and then the 82ZX was a 14951-N3600 They look the same, so I am thinking one is a typo. The canisters look the same, they just mount them in different spots. I have 4 wire (4 pin) and a 5 wire (6 pin connector) resistors. Untested but look intact. If you're interested....

I should have the clamp and possibly the resistor. I'll check and let you know tonight.

Z's on BAT and other places collection
Ha, I have enough motors, 2 F54's a few N42's and a bunch of 240's I usually get them in the cars, but I did buy one outright. A 240 with an auto trans on it for $30 The carbs on there look 3 screw? with 73-74 manifold, but they are sold separate.

What is painted body color?
I am no expert on this at all, but I remember seeing a post about parts of the front of the radiator core are black in some areas. Might only be on early cars. Something like this pic I stole from the web.

You are correct, I did not see the model listed in the signature line. Moot point, question answered.

240z Door Hinge Rebuild
I've not used either so I really can't say for sure, but my guess would be probably not. The sizing might be a little different.

240z Door Hinge Rebuild
The hinge on my parts car 280 is broken. There is a seller on eBay that offers a kit. They seem to be popular. I have seen him on FB too. The eBay link is strange but here is a clip of the item. Just search for the description.

Be careful with MIKEGREEN008
That is just the start, as with the case of this OP took the next step and sent money for the parts only to have the person not answer back and no parts shipped. I know we all started at one point with no post and no feedback, you have to build a reputation of be an honest seller, If you just start scamming people, you'll be called out (like this thread). Then you change you name and start over.

That is an interesting list of "pop up sellers" I have seen these kinds of scams a lot recently. When someone posts a want ad then these people all have one available. All new members with no posts. Glad to hear you are pursuing the money sent to the last "seller" Best of luck on that. Since it was a nice sunny weekend I went out and took some parts off the 76 280Z parts car, for future sales. I did pull the pedals, and seem to be missing 1 spring. You should have that same spring on your brake pedal. I will get some pictures this afternoon, as I am headed to work for the day. I will PM the pics and a price. I will also look into the shipping to Spain.

Front bumper fitment, 77 on a 76
I have a 76 with the front bumper on it. It is not in perfect shape most of the rubber is cracked, and there is a bent up part on the drivers side, so inexpensive. Let me know if there is any interest. I'm in WA too. Exit 82

As said above if you linked the funds through a credit card, ask the card company. I get the impression you linked your bank. I will confirm I have the whole set of pedals, and send pictures for you to decide you would like to proceed with another set. No rush, take the time to give @mikegreen008 the opportunity to make this right for you. Refund or the parts. 54 days on the forum and no posts. @Mike should also be aware of this activity in my opinion. Good luck, as well.
