How does it pivot without leaking?

Pretty car. I like the clean engine bay

I used a big flat head screwdriver and put the edge of the blade in the slots

Pretty car! Aught to be fun

Get a respirator so you can ignore the fumes and avoid any unnecessary exposure

Maybe drill them and expoxy small sections of thin all thread? Then bolt them to the hubcaps

Nice looking car. Not perfect but a nice driver

Too funny! 😂 I routinely see cars with large rusted holes in them. They seem to work fine. Also in my state there are zero vehicle inspections! No smog, no emissions, no brake light check etc. It doesn't seem to create carnage on the roads. What does seem to create great issues is the invention of the smart phone!

Have you driven it yet with the new setup?

There is a spring upgrade, Japanese I believe, for coil overs that allows you to run softer feeling springs than their effective rate. A good solution to prevent harshness. I can't remember the name currently

Yeah, I'd be hot! 😡

I agree, I wouldn't touch it

I would think BaT with a healthy reserve. I wouldn't consider a no reserve auction, too easy to lose it cheap.

Well that's no fun!

I believe they're in North Carolina and Oklahoma. My last header was done in OK

I did this Z Car Depot IncCarburetor Return Spring Bracket Plate Custom 240ZStainless steel plate that mounts under the intake for attaching the carburetor return springs on Datsun 240Z. This plate bolts to the original intake and allows for 2 spring clips but offers mini...I also do not have coated headers. That may end up being an issue but I will deal with later if it is
