where can i purchase these seals?

Hi all. Does anyone run 7x15 et20 wheels, if so any issues or pics of how they look. I'm thinking of swapping my 8x15 et0 wheels for something thats not as wide.

I'm going to leave it LHD, it means if I do sell it the 'other' Europeans would be interested in it, also i'd prefer to keep it as it started off! Driving a LHD car isn't too bad, it just means overtakes have to be planned a little further in advance. My plans are to restore the interior, fit new suspension/brakes, a lumpy cam and a little headwork. Basically just a good refresh. A few bits of surface rust to sort out but nothing major, just surface and 1 dogleg. Its wearing its original panels and you can still see the factory spot welds everywhere. The only rust free UK cars are American cars that have been converted. I think there's about 5 240's for sale at any one time, a few more that have made it over from your shores. I've currently got the dash out to sort some wiring niggles and fit a full dash cover..... this could be a long journey!

Prices do seem to be going up a little, I struggled to find a decent car here in the UK, ended up with a 1970 car that made its way over from Arizona... There must be about 100 cars a year making their way over here, They tend to be at the upper end condition wise(body I mean), with tired interiors etc. Seems strange to think I had to get a car that lived thousands of miles away

I've submitted an offer on one of them. I also found a copy of the manual you mention on the net, its got some great diagrams/pictures in it which should help me get it back together the way it should be. Being in the UK doesn't help when it comes to sourcing parts! Thanks again.

Cheers for the reply. Strange thing is that all my lights/indicators were working fine, just the hazards. I'm currently checking wires for continuity to see what wires go where and where they should go. I'll have a look for the manual

Hi all. I've recently got my hands on a 1970 240z 10/70 build date. Its missing the hazard flasher switch. Does anyone know the wiring for the flasher switch so I can try and make one or know if I can adapt a later one to fit? Also trying to work out the heater blower wiring, mines been slightly butchered when fitting a stereo at some point and A/C, has anyone a decent wiring diagram for the above? I've looked through haynes but it doesn't seem to line up. Thanks all.

A solid car, don't mind if its tatty or has running issues, mainly a decent body. Anything above and beyond that is most welcome too!

Thanks, i'll look around there

I've tried contacting a few off craigslist but they don't want to 'deal' with a foreign buyer....

Shipping isn't too bad. there's no UK cars that are worth buying left.

As above, has anyone got an unfinished project languishing about!? Or a complete car?
