    What exactly is a re-VIN? Does that occur when the original VIN plate (this one looks pretty legit to me) is suspected of being tampered with?

    Beautiful car, but shouldn't the radio be AM only?

    Check out this beauty. Talk about data-plate mischief. It even comes standard with a passenger 260z door. https://www.ebay.com/itm/144147657944?hash=item218fdeb4d8:g:uXcAAOSwzR9hEY4e

    I have not delved into the world of plating (yet), but have had excellent luck using naval jelly to remove rust from hardware. It works best if the hardware is degreased first. I have soaked hardware in naval jelly for 48 hours and after rinsing was rust free. Low effort with high yield.

    The radio appears to be the original Hitachi AM, too. It's pretty rare to see a console lid on a car anymore, either.

    There's an orange '71 now on ebay, very original condition and only 15k miles. Why do suppose they would have no reserve?

    Z Car Source also sells the rubber moulding by the foot. It's a pretty good match to the original. I replaced all of mine on my '71 Z because I didn't want to have to fill the rivet holes if the moulding was removed. You will need a drill and a pop-rivet tool. Wasn't too hard a job, the trickiest part was getting the length of each rubber segment correct. Cut them a little long, they can always be trimmed but if they're too short you're SOL. I just noticed that the rubber in your picture looks like it has a slightly lower profile than the one on my car. Not sure if the various dealers used more than one source for the rubber trim.

    Thanks, was just curious.

    What the heck is that mounted over the data plate? Never seen that before.

    Be sure to check the starter solenoid for a short, they also draw a lot of current.

    Thanks everyone for the input. By the way, my car is an automatic. Curiosity is a good thing.

    This glovebox just came out of my '71 Z. Any idea what it translates to?
