Obsolete HTF Parts for Prototyping
Yes, the round harness one that is behind the headlight bucket and connects the headlight. This would allow Dave Irwin's harness to be plug n play for the 280.

Stock 280z in Oklahoma
It is my favorite color! Cliff's tough to out do, (especially in beverages per hour) but I'm tied with him with the silver 240, this would put me over the top. My beloved 280 got lots of love at the local car show last weekend, Zup's beautiful car also took home a trophy. A great day for Datsun's in NW Arkansas!

280zx 5 speed going into 75 280z
Hey Dave, when you put the 5 speed back in, be sure to replace the clutch pivot ball. Had one break once with no warning. Cheap insurance, MSA has it.

Grant Signature Leather Steering Wheel
Did have it installed on my 77 280z for a while. (fits all z cars 70 thru 83) All is included, including working working horn button. You need to reuse your nut & washer from the steering shaft. Will look for some pictures of it on the car.

Looking for l28 owners
Nice mostly original car. The oil pressure issue is likely the sender - easy fix. Fuel also the sender - not easy to find for the 280's. The fusible link covers have seen better days... still available. A very good oil for the old z cars is Valvoline VR1 10/30 or 20/50. Looks like 110 red, my personal favorite.

P79 Head Stuck to Block, Please Help!
Noah, welcome to the site. Usually in your case, assuming you are correct and all fasteners are removed, the leverage from a long bar in the head ports & the rubber mallet method works well. When all else fails, some have used a engine hoist to lift the head off the block. the cars weight will overcome the stiction of the head & block. Patience is the key... best of luck.

Proper Wiper Blade and Arm Color?
jerz is correct. I liked the raw stainless look & converted mine a few years ago to the 240 style. Purchased new nuts & blades and put the 240 arms on. If I remember correctly, the blade mount was also changed from bayonet to pin style.
