    Well i tried to redo the chrome paint like substance around my AT plate in my 1978. I used some Testors model paint which was supposedly "chrome" color. Unfortunately, it looked like an off white when it dried but it looks OK. At least it's better than chipped off chrome like substance!!!!!

    My door locks lock OK but then they wont open with the key from the outside. I'm told they are worn bushings inside the mechanism. But i have bigger to fish to fry and they are low on my priority list. I'll fix them someday
  3. This is a very hard piece to get out and not ruin it. Both mine were ruined and I had to buy two new spindle pins. 22 bucks apiece not including the nuts, bushings and new washers.

    Yeah the discount is for any of the above recognized clubs as Bambikiller listed. The only catch is you CANNOT use it on their sale priced items such as the ones in the Spring catalog/brochure. But it sure does come in handy when you have to order 150 bucks or so worth of parts!

    of living in Southern California, It's great WALKING into MSa and ordering parts and paying NO shipping costs, plus i get 10 percent off for being a Group Z member!

    stock, but thats just me. I know what you mean when you say interior parts are VERy expensive. just do little by little and it wont be so bad. It might take a year or two to finish the interior, but it wont be such a financial crunch for you. Ebay is an awesome place to find new or used parts. but you miust be diligent in scanning Ebay each day or every other day and set it on new listings

    Stereo place, I paid 100 bucks and that inlcuded installation. It works great and it's automatic! I would go to a mom and pop place rather than a big chain store, It'll likely be cheaper plus you'll have a better warranty

    oil sending unit. I just replaced mine last week and it now reads constant peressure whether im idling or not. Mine was also leaking oil profusely as the insides go bad in it. It's a very easy replacement. I bought the new one at my local parts store for 39 bucks rather than pay Nissan 50 plus, I just wanted it to stop leaking!!!! I always check my oil anyway!
  17. I had on my 240Z when I owned it from 1981-92. When i sold my 240 i turned the license plate back into the DMV, secretly hoping one day i would own it again! Lo and behold, when i applied for it in January, it was still available so i can put it on my 280Z! This what you'll see everytime you see me drive down the street! "See Nick's Z Go!"

    and this is amazingly clean inside. I would say the price is a tad high , but as has been said before I would really verify that mileage! I'm kinda worried what his resrve is, it might be 6500 or so. Any higher and I would prob pass simply because A) cant afford it and I would like to restore SOME of it myself. Thats most of the fun. But if you have the funds, i would say go for it. Since your so close i would definitelty drive down and check it out in person. The carpet will need replacing but no big thing. This mustve been garaged all the time because the SEAT BELT light and the other one are bright red and blue. Even mine are a little faded! That dash is awesome!

    go without the overrider bar. IMHO I like the look of the 240 z without the big bar. I had a 73 240 when i was in college, had to sell it, and i just got a 280z in Nov. to get back into the game, enjoy!

    Beandip: I think that's how I will do mine. I'll need to polish them up real good first (they aren't that bad now). I think i will mask them off and then paint them black. I was going to use the metallic blue color to match the body but (A) I think it'll be too hard and expensive to match up that color and ( I think the black won't show the dirt and grime so much as the metallic blue will. Beandip, what kind of spray paint did you use? I saw Auto Zone has some wheel spray paint. I think a nice metallic black will look great! Nick
