James Bond 007 That looks to be a 350Z dash and console transplant. Whoever built this car spent a lot of time and money on it and did a very good job.

Beautiful find there Patrick. I'd say your wait was well worth it. Nice pics too. Are you going to treat us to more?

Hi Stephen, Interesting color scheme ya got there! I went to see a better picture of it in your photo gallery, but you don't have one. Give us all a treat and post some good pics, including interior and mechanicals!

Ya, and here's what the guys do at the park out here in Ca.

According to my 1975 280z owners manual, the gear oil weight you specified is good for ambient temperatures from about -10 deg. F to 100 deg. F. It also specifies using 3 1/8 pints of oil. Hope this helps. thehelix, he stated: Also, I've heard good things about Redline products as well.

That's why you use THEIR stuff instead of yours. :classic:

Here's one for sale from a club member. I don't know if it's the same as kinfish is refering to. http://www.classiczcars.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=268&sort=1&cat=4&page=3

Ahhhh...use their jack that came with their car to change their tire on their car?

Thanks Ed. My friend nows them from past experience. They don't ship and it's about 300 miles away from us.

I appologize in advance for posting this here, but this is time sensitive and I don't know if an entry in the classified section would show up on the front page or not. I'm looking for someone in the So. Cal. area who has a '77 - '78 gas tank for sale ASAP! The tank is for a good friend of mine here in Ventura, Ca. that has no access to the internet and needs a tank now. Any and all help is appreciated.

I'll second that, and don't be strangers! We all look forward to your participation.

I lived in Titusville once.

Don't let it bother you Dave. The guy probably thinks Dan Gurney invented beds with wheels and that a Stingray is a fish.

Will, your PM box is full. Please empty.

Ya, Vanna White is quite talented!

Yep, you guessed right.

Just an update to let you all know that I haven't forgotten about all of you who are waiting to get a price for the seat mechanism covers. The guy that's going to manufacture them told me today he will have a figure to me by tomorrow, so I'll have a price by then. I'll be in touch!

Mrcow Hang in there. You'll find the car thats "right" for you. Just don't get too anxious and keep learning all you can about these cars. Information is your best defense against fraud. You certainly made the right choice in asking questions here and taking everyones advice! If feel this is the best place to learn all there is to know about the car of your dreams. :cheeky: Have patience and you'll be fine.

Thanks for the tip Carl. Is that a picture of you? I want some of what you got!!!

Maybe I'll just buy one of every screw that looks like it'll fit and try 'em all!

Man, I'm learning alot about metric fasteners here. I talked to a hardware salesman at Green Thumb. They have an extensive selection of metric screws and the closest he could find was what you found at Ace, M3, 4 or 6 mm long, 0.50 pitch. I think I'll pick up one of these to see how it fits, just for grins. I sure do want to include screws with these covers if for nothing else but convenience. I KNOW some people are going to need them.

I should know something tomorrow on the price.

Thanks Mike. I looked at your pic and I think your evaluation is right on target. I'll have to pull one of mine to see if it's the same. I appreciate all your help. Update: I pulled one off my 280z and it's almost the same as you described in your post (5mm head dia., 5mm long, thread size m3 [3mm dia.], 8 threads total=0.6 threads per mm [5mm divided by 8 threads=0.6]). Mike I found this at McMaster. It's the closest I could find to what I measured. What do you think?
