What would you charge to refurbish mine? I have a 72 240. Curious, as I had thought about taking this on, but may not have time. Appreciate your thoughts. I am on a budget, so your beautiful work might be out of my price range. BTW, they really are beautifully redone! Please p.m. Me, thanks! Kirak The lil z lady

Hi Stealth, I'm in need of the following parts for my 72 240 Z, can you let me know if you have any of the following: if so, please pm me with price. I'm in Vegas for shipping info. Looking for parts in good used working condition. Hope you can help! 1) Left front blinker full assembly (need lens in good shape) pigtail too if possible. 2) a/c control unit (interior) I have the functioning A/C unit, but would love the controls that mounts to left of the upper left console by the gear shift. 3) 240 horn pad and/ or the spring and mechanism behind it. 4) rubber grommets around inside of engine compartment, same for those inside the lower & upper rear hatch ( mine are really dried out) 5) Antenna assembly and motor working - Don't need the mast. 6) 1972 chrome wheels and/ or tires in good condition 7) Original SU carbs by chance? 8) White interior pieces ( rear area and the antenna access area... Don't want new, too white!) 9) rear hatch strut? Mine is ok, but kinda weak. 10) rear hatch louvers ( the no drill kind) i think that's it for now. If you happen to have any of those items please let me know. Have a persimmon 72 240 with white interior, so need to make sure that your 71 parts will work. Just let me know what you have, and I'll do the research. Appreciate any assistance! Kira The lil z lady

Parts needed to finish a beautiful project! Looking for parts in good used working condition. Hope you can help! If you are parting out your 1972 and can help with the list below, it would be much appreciated! This is a labor of love, as it started as a father/daughter project that wasn't quite finished, then the car sat for several years due to poor health. Now I'm back on the case, and trying to finish on budget that is already above and beyond! So any assistance you can give is greatly appreciated! 1) 240 horn pad and/ or the spring and mechanism behind it. 2) White interior pieces ( rear area and the side antenna access area... Don't want new, too white!) 3) rear hatch louvers ( the no drill kind) 4) antenna motor-working (mast needed) whole component. i think that's it for now. If you happen to have any of those items please let me know. Have a persimmon 72 240 with white interior that's in great shape, but trying to upgrade weak areas, and keep her as original as possible. i will check off and/or update this list as parts are found. I will also add any parts that may be needed as I finish my restoration, so please check back Thanks Z friends! Appreciate any assistance! To those who have either found parts for me, or have given thoughts or direction, Thanks a big Z bunch! Kira The lil z lady Below, my z in 2005 prior to the start of restoration.

Thanks much for your response! Yes, I am very interested! I just received a choke lever, so I'm good there, but I'm interested in the other items! im on a bit of a budget ( well I'm way over budget honestly! But you know how it goes, right!) Anything you can do to help is much appreciated! Pictures and price would be great! Kira The lil z lady

Hi fellow Zer's! I have white interior in my 1972 z, that is very yellow from sun fade. Will the cleaning suggestions on this thread work to get them back to a more white color? I also have two interior panels in the back that are cracked. One behind left rear tail light and one that covers the antenna assembly. All very brittle, and were cracked when an attempt was made to get behind those panels. Any options to try and repair? I am reluctant to replace with new panels as the new ones will be so much whiter than my old panels. I'd like to avoid a complete interior renew, as it would be expensive and the rest of my panels, dash are perfect.. Just old, yellow, and fragile. Thoughts on how to get my girls interior as white and as close to perfect as possible, without a complete overhaul? In closing, if anyone has original white interior panels (especially the ones I describe as cracked) that they want to part with, please let me know! Your advice and experience always amazes, thanks in advance for any assistance! Kira The lil z lady if there is an attachment, please disregard, I'm having trouble with posting. Thanks!

My 72 has a metal slider? Realized after I did a search that you said yours was plastic? What year is yours? Heres the metal one I found for you, but I don't think it will help now that I reread your post. https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/221956472402 If it's the fuse box cover, https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/291719532806 Ill keep a look out, sorry if this was not helpful.

Looking for these parts in good used working condition. Hope you can help! If you are parting out your1972 and can help with the list below, it would be much appreciated! Updated 4/15 Thanks to many forum members, I've been educated! Parts removed have either been found, advised to buy new, or found not to be needed! Forum members, You guys ROCK! Still needed, see below: 1) 240 horn pad and/ or the spring and mechanism behind it. 3) Antenna working ( including mast) -May have option here, but if you have one in good condition, send photos. 4) White interior pieces ( back panels and left side panel.) 5) R12 coolant refills i think that's it for now. If you happen to have any of those items please let me know, and p.m. me with photos and price. Have a persimmon (#101) 72 240 with white interior that's in great shape, but trying to upgrade weak areas, and keep her as original as possible. This was a father/daughter project that I'm trying to finish after it was derailed by life and health issues. Back on the case now, and ready to get the little lady rolling again! Thanks Z friends! Appreciate any assistance! Kira The lil z lady

Hi Captain I pm you
-
Boy guys do I appreciate your assistance on this, as I have been told otherwise! Can you tell me if it is the same for the rear bumper override? Anyone out there have dimensions on the proper front and the rear override for my 72 240? Classiczcar members rock! Thanks again! Kira The lil z lady
-
-
Hi Captain, I am still researching dimensions to help us identity your rear override. However I have learned that like the front override, there is no difference between the 1970 and 1973 overides, so if your override came from a 240z then we should be good! As for identifying marks, none known, so no luck there. I'll continue to see if I can find dimensions for you. In the meantime, can you send some photos? That might help me. ill let you know if I find those dimensions, otherwise, if you are able to send photos, it would be very appreciated! Many thanks! Kira The lil z lady

Hi Captain, My above won't help, as I was talking about the front override, which I'm also looking for. Oops, my bad.. let me do a little quick research and get right back to you! Thanks much! Kira
-
Hi there Captain! It seems the front override was the same for the 70-73 240's Looks to be approximately 38" inches in length end to end ( in a straight line, not accounting for the nose point.) Does that help? Let me know. Thanks much! Kira The lil z lady

Trying to complete my labor of love and bring a father/daughter project back to life on a 1972 240 z original persimmon and white interior. This started as a father daughter project and life and poor health got in the way! I'm back on the case and have finished the mechanics, just trying to complete the last of the bits and pieces. Would love to drive up to my dads house with her purring and beautiful! I have monitored all the regular sites, and either can't find, they are in poor shape, or are too expensive! (I'm already way over budget!) So, I'm hoping some fellow members may have some of these needed parts they are ready to "part" with at a reasonable price. (No pun intended!) The below parts needed: 1) Left front blinker full assembly (need lens in good shape) 2) a/c control unit (interior) I have the functioning A/C unit, but would love the controls that mounts to left of the upper left console by the gear shift. 3) 240 horn pad and/ or the spring and mechanism behind it. 4) rubber grommets around inside of engine compartment, same for those inside the lower rear hatch ( mine are really dried out) 5) choke handle ( interior) *** FOUND! Thanks to Grannyknot 6) 1972 chrome wheels and/ or tires in good condition 7) Original SU carbs by chance? 8) White interior pieces ( rear area and the antenna access area... Don't want new, too white!) 9) rear hatch strut? Mine is ok, but kinda weak. 10) rear hatch louvers ( the no drill kind) 11) Antenna motor-working (mast not needed) i think that's it for now. If you happen to have any of these items please let me know. i will check off and/or update this list as parts are found. I will also add any parts that may be needed as I finish my restoration, so please check back Ok my fellow Zer's, can you assist me in finishing this true labor of love! Thanks much for the help in advance! Kira The lil Z lady! you can reach me here or at kirareisch@gmail.com Below is my Z prior to restoration in 2005

Hi all! I know this post is old, but I'm hoping there is a member out there who can help! Im trying to locate a rear override bar for my 72 240 z, anyone have one they would be interested in letting go? I have found one through an after market place, but it's so expensive! I've had no luck on eBay or the other sites. I'm on a budget and just trying to get my girl all beautiful and back on the road! im happy to pay a reasonable amount including shipping for the bar and hardware to attach. Please feel free to contact me here or at Kirareisch@gmail.com Hope my fellow Zer's can help! Big Thanks! Kira The lil z lady!
