leftover z

I still have the heater control valves pictured earlier. Shoot me a PM regarding which one you need, with your price offer. They are both off a '78 280Z with factory air cond. I may decide to part with them if the price is right

That's an extremely tough question to answer accurately. If the previous owner(s) maintained the engine with proper oil & filter changes, and didn't drive the crap out of it, then I agree 300,000 miiles (or more) is possible. I've seen some cars that have major engine issues with only 100,000 miles. It all depends on maintenance and how hard they were driven. Just my two cents worth P.S. that is one sweet-looking 260 you have!

It will take some modification as the 240 & 280 grilles are different in width, and the mounting points are different. Even the 75-76 and the 77-78 280 grilles are a little different.

I can't believe there are 19 bids already...

The emblems on the hatch and the side marker lights are bass-ackwards.

Nice work Jonathon!

There have been tons of posts on all the Z websites regarding the heater control valve. They are no longer made or available. You can get yours rebuilt for about $180 plus a $100 core charge from datsunstore.com. Alot of S30 owners just remove the factory valve, and modify the setup with something else. I do happen to have a pair of good valves for sale. One is a vacuum setup for factory AC cars. The other is a manual valve wihich is used on both the AC & non-AC cars. Send me a PM if interested.

That is a beauty indeed. After you remove the license plate, I'd remove that steering wheel too

Does it look like this?

Yes, the hatches on 70-78's are interchangeable.

It's the flux capacitor...

Hard to tell from the pics. The first pic looks like it could be the antenna lead, which would plug into the back of the radio. The second pic doesn't look like a vaccum hose. It almost looks like a drain hose of some sort. Can you tell what the other end is hooked to?
