@Barnfind if u happen to know the new owner, ask him to post some pics to the forum.

madkaw, you still have that wheel well? Never heard from you.Please let me know. dreamscape289

No worries Zman525. I just found out that I actually have round top SUs on mine, which then begs another question: How old is this motor?! Runs fine, but had a lot of valve noise, even more than usual. Runs strong, doesn't burn oil, just noisy.

Madkaw, if you still have that well, I'll take it off your hands. Let me know the cost to ship it to Memphis, TN, and I'll get the money to you. Did you get the PM I sent you?

Would it be better to try and find a used FI system and go back original? Not sure if I want to spend the time or effort on this car..... Intended to just be a daily driver for better mileage than my truck.

Arne, I'd be willing to ship it if it is in good enough condition. I and my wife both work for shipping companies, so our costs are minimal. Can you send some pictures? dreamscape289@yahoo.com LanceM, sorry about the PM. Go ahead and ignore. I mistakenly thought you were webdawg1.

I'm new to the site, so how do I pm you? I cruised the zbarn.com website from previous postings and didn't see the wheel well, but left a message on their 800 number. Send me PM instructions and I'll do it.

Just bought a 76 280Z with two ?Weber? carbs on it. Is this right? All the write ups I've see indicate that Datsun/Nissan went to FI effective in 1975. How would I be able to tell if the car originally had FI and someone switched over to Carbs? Would the VIN have this information?

Greetings! I'm new to the forum and from the various threads I've perused, most people here really know their stuff. I have a 1976 280Z car that is a very strange egg. Background story: Bought it off ebay for a "cheap" price. Drove it from Seattle, WA, to Memphis, TN and was almost killed by the exhaust fumes. After looking around, found a rust hole in the back hatch AND the spare tire wheel well was totaly rusted through. I've looked all over for replacement wheel well sheet metal, but cannot find one. Any suggestions? this is the well in which the actual spare tire resides. (Called on place today and they didn't have a clue what I was talking about) Any help would be appreciated. Also, I'd like to just replace the back hatch completely. anyone with a spare/parts car they would be willing to part with?
