Please correct me, and I am greatful for your knowledge. I am trying to keep this Baby as close to stock as I can. Is this something that is not time correct on my Z? Her Vin is 12/70.... 16365 Could this be wrong?

I totally envy you. BRAT!

I just did, as you said to do... Looks to be okay with her frame rails. Looks like she needs some removal and cleaning up of some parts. What would you recommend to keep the rust from stopping on her? Like I said, I am all ears open.... Thank you for your advice. I would love to bring her back up to specs and to stop any rust on her.

Sad to say, It is missing some of the plastic ring around it. I will keep an eye out for a better replacement, and you guys are great for making some parts... do for now... until it can be fixed correctly.

You're awesome! Thank you! I did search to find out how to restore the steering wheel. Looks like I will be having fun for the next several of days.

Replace/fixed? It's off the steering wheel.... Horn button keeps falling on my lap.:tapemouth

For this 240Z Sweetheart, I would love to refresh her and that link helped a lot! Thank you

, You Guys ROCK! Now I don't feel guilty today.

Thank you, Is it bad to take the day off to play with a Z to clean her up?

You are correct about washing her. My bad. You know what... She has the vented rear deck lid but the Vin is throwing me off. Is she a later model? HLS3O16365? I'm sorry but this is kinda of new to me.

Thank you for the warm welcome. I have owned Z's in the past from 83zxt's to Z32's and it's how I came across this wonderful website. But I have never owned my dream come true 240Z to refresh her. I love racing them tho. I refreshed this 73 for almost 2 years to get him ready to go have some fun.

HI, My name is Donna and I have been doing the happy Z dance. I have been in love with the Z cars ever since I was a little girl. I fell in love with this 12/70 Z Baby at first sight, and I just had to buy her. I have looked for a long time for a decent stock factory 240Z, and I would like to clean her up and keep her as stock as can be... While cleaning her up. Any advice for her? I'm all ears open! I would love to bring her back to her shiny bright days. I adore this Z!!!! What a blast to drive her! Yeah, as I am typing this out, I'm still wearing the smile she gives me. So far, while exploring at her. She's with her matching engine number, along with her stock dash stuff, but looks to be repainted. Looks like I will be cleaning up her engine bay with a tooth brush too. Her seats are fine, thanks to the seat covers, but the back carpet needs to be replaced from the CA sun damage.... Her first bath

XRay is correct. Fiju Blue is a Honda color. There isn't any metallic in it. Only a new type of pearl. (It's a little more expensive then most every day pearls.) It does flop in the shade to a slight blue/purple. It's actually a little more blue pearly then the 350Z blue and cost a bit more the Nissan's paint color. When the sun hits it. The color really jumps out BRIGHT blue. I've had my last Z painted that color. Donna

I love it when you guys post your video's! Keep them coming. Donna

This shifter might be really boring to you all. But, I like it.

Nice looking Z! While attaining my license thru POC on the short track. I witness two nasty rollovers on the big track. It is a fun track tho. Donna

Wow Looks great! I see there is hope for my new little ITS car that needs attention too. Donna
