I saw these a couple days ago and noticed that the seller said his reserve is $800 which he states as the retail price when they were available.

I would like to see the pix before I send money but I am interested in the console, complete ashtray, and fuse box. Do you know when you will have pix available? Also how about that valve cover?

If the right signal is not working but the left is would this be a fuse, a bulb, or a wire problem? It does not blink on the dash. I remember seeing something that may have been s tiny bit of smoke from the left side of the steering column several weeks ago when I had used the turn signals. Maybe a wire has melted. If this is the case are the signal switched the same from '70 on up at least to '73? I have a '70 car that this is not working in and a '73 parts car I can pull the signal switch from. On this note are the light/wiper combo switches the same also?

Update! I do have one now. Thank you to all who replied. For those who say that these do not exist they do and here's a pic to show one. They come from the front of a Datsun 720 4x4 truck from the production period 1/83 - 6/83. Tough to find, but not impossible. The numbers on the ring gear did not come out very clear but it reads 39:10.

If it's the early '71 then I need some parts!! The center console (if in very good shape with no cracks, breaks, etc) Heater/Radio panel (no controls, just the plastic cover panel)(if in very good shape with no cracks, breaks, etc) The ashtray The valve cover (if it is the same as mine, reads "NISSAN 2400 OHC") Rear license plate light assembly (if in very good shape with no cracks, breaks, etc) Fuse box and cover (if in very good shape with no melts and has long pigtail) [/list=1] Please provide prices, pix, and any other info you have on these parts.

Eric, I do not have any information for you but I do have a question. What does all the information you listed here mean??? Does it matter what time of day it is? JK Serioursly though, what does all the info you posted mean?

As I understand it you should be getting about 170 in all cyls. This is what I recall being told here a few months back. 100 is low.

So true. Hey! What time is it there? Aren't you like 17 hours different from us? It's 10:15pm on 10/29 here right now.

No biggie. Wanna buy it? :classic:

As I stated, it came with my parts car.

Here's the pic.

Here's the pic.

Most will want to see pix before making a serious offer. So keep working on getting them up here and if you need some help just ask us and someone will gladly assist you.

zcarman, I was not looking for an original 240Z unit; thank you though. I have found one from a junk yard that has 59000 original miles on it!! I had the guy pull the rear cover and the gears looked brand new he said. The best part, $105 including shipping to my house! :classic: :bandit:

A big "thank you" to 2many and Ben for helping identify the diff I asked about.

I need the two pieces for the rear license plate light. The outter piece which has the lenses in it and the white-ish inner piece that has the bulbs in it. This MUST fit a '70 model 240Z. Please post or contact me with price, condition, and pix.

Does this appear to be an R180? It is said to have come out of a '78 Fairlady Z and be a 4.11 ratio.

Ok, so all I got to this weekend was the hatch window seal. Not difficult just a bit of time (about 2-3 hours for someone who has never done one before and was working slowly and carefully). The tips about using the silicone spray were great, that stuff is slick and made getting the seal to seat much easier. I do, however, still need to know how to attack the inner and outter hatch seal. I see where they go but how are they held in place? Is it just by using that black goopy stuff in the tube that came with them or what?

Anyone...please??? I want to do this over the weekend.

I believe that I will be passing on these Bambi, I was already leaning that way since he could not confirm anything about the brand or style. Yes, patience is what got me the car I have for the great price I paid. I will just keep looking and if I do not find the right pair by the time I have other things done and am ready to start autoxing then I will have to pay out for the new set. Thank you and everyone for helping out. I may (most likely) be asking more about sway bars along the way.

I'm with Bambi, I too am flattered. However, there are many here that know FAR more then me. I've only been hanging around on this board since about 1/03 and just bought my first Z in 6/03 so I have a LOT to learn still. Anyhow, thank you for the compliment. As with others here I agree, read up on zhome.com and you will know about as much as the rest of us on this topic. That is where I gained most of my knowledge about what series is what. The rest you will pick up along the way. I have the following: HLS30-08215 8/70 1971 Model year My seats are the old style NOT flip Forward Gas Door latch Hatch vents Verticle defroster lines 240Z pillar emblems E31 head NISSAN 2400 - OHC valve cover Flapper style air cleaner (has Summer/Winter settings) NO pockets for seat belt retractors These are many/most, if not all, of the distingushing items on a Series I. I only wish my title said '70.

The pair in the last pic I have attached above is available to me for $100 so if they are the ST or Ground Control brand I will get them. The problem is that the seller does not know nor has he ever installed them so he does not know how they attach either. This is becoming painful.

Ok, I'm back and trying to determine the manufacturer of the sway bars in this pic. I found these for sale and the owner does not know anything about them. I'm trying to avoid drilling the chassis to install a rear sway bar, that's why I am asking. I'm also curious which one is the front and which is the rear? Finding the right sway bars should not be this hard! :stupid: :cross-eye

Anyone, anyone??? I have a couple that I have located and need to confirm that they are the right one. Is there a casting code on the diff case that would help at all?
