I see that you have had a lot of 1973 240Z parts for sale that you have removed from a parts donor car and refurbished. I'm looking for a 1973 240Z engine wiring harness complete because we had a battery tip over and arc out melting the wires in the engine bay harness and in the dash harness. We have already obtained and installed a dash harness but still need the engine bay harness with the proper connectors to the interior/dash harness. Call me at 509-885-8377, TJ, if you can be of assistance please. Thank you.

Came across this via youtube. https://www.carbody.com/product/240z-parts/replacement-complete-car-body-assembly-for-nissan-datsun-240z-260z.html

How much are you asking for the parts car, and/or is it still available to bring a trailer and load it up? My name is TJ and I live in Washington state.

While I do have the special tool to open the booster, I also used Powerbrakeexchange. I live in WA and just dropped it off there. Traded in some of my cores for a discount as well. Call and ask then if he still has my cores, he can rebuild that and would likely just charge more for you not sending in a core. If that works for you.

I had thought about putting the engine and tranny back in. Then the remainder of the parts would probably fit in the car and it would haul easily on a trailer.

The link works. Not obvious how to get in to the pictures though. Clcik on the Google Drive link, a new page will open > double click on a folder name > double click on the first picture > then you can scroll through all of the pictures in the folder using the arrows on the sides. It's pretty well deconstructed. A box truck would probably be best for transport, or a trailer with room for parts.

Did the link for about 100 pics not come through in the post? I included pics of about everything and they are organized by category. I'll add more history. Thanks!

past history, pics of the underside and engine bay. Thanks, Good luck on the sale.

Belmetric and Bolt Depot are my go-to vendors if the local Ace Hardware, Lowe's or Home Despot fail me. As for color, I have a complete collection of black spray paint cans in various states of gloss 😁

Many years ago I started converting the wiring diagram from the service manual into something I could actually read with color coded lines. I scanned the original and then placed it behind the drawing and that is what you see in the pic. If someone would like to pick up where I left off I will send the Visio drawing. If you want to monetize it I would like some compensation. It is probably 90% or more complete but it was sideline project while I was working and I have no time to finish it. If someone thinks the non-complete version is useful I can post it as a .pdf without the original scan in the background.

I have used Belmetric for lots of fasteners but black might be a problem

I bought this about 35 years ago with the plan to restore it after finishing another resto but I'm moving and cannot take it with me. It has been sitting on blocks in my backyard since I bought it. My plan was to use it as a parts car for my 71 restoration but that car was running so about the only part I used was the right front fender since it was in better shape. It was invaluable as a guide for assembly of the 71 since I could just walk outside and take a look at this guy. The engine ran before I pulled it from the car but that was many years ago. Pretty much everything was degreased as it was disassembled. I think $3,800 is reasonable but I'm open to offers since I am moving in about a month. The rear quarter panels are rusted through but it appears the rest of the body has nothing more than surface rust. Other typical rust areas like battery rest, spare wheel well are very solid. Car is located in the north area of Phoenix, AZ and has clear AZ title. I placed many pics on Google Drive but recently found trim parts that were not photographed.

Thanks for that info, zKars. It's been so long since I removed the ICF from my car for this restomod that the OEM screws are long vanished.

You will need special tools to do a brake booster; outlined in the service manual, which should tell you what a rebuild entails. I sent mine to https://www.powerbrakebooster.com/ Power Brake Booster exchange in Washington. They did a nice job for me.

They are black M4 x.7 yes. Oval head is what I believe they are called, not flat, slightly curved face. Phillips or JIS equivalent driver. Fairly long, like 25mm?

Thanks ever so much, Patcon. I've order some of the 2 mm material. Because it's foam, the extra thickness shouldn't pose a great problem.

I believe this is what I ordered https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YGXQM2X?ref_=ppx_hzod_title_mob_b_fed_asin_title_1_0

Yes, I believe they are available for purchase

Thanks. I live outside the US. Getting such booster into the US will pay an import tax.isnt there any shop that can sell me one instead of doing the exchange?

It might be more cost effective to send it to Power Brake Exchange.

That looks like it might be 1/8" thick material. Is it, or do my eyes deceive me? Is it really soft or does it have some compressive resistance? In any case, who's the supplier and, ideally, what's the part number?

I bought a kit from Harmon Brakes in Georgia. You need some specialize tools to get the booster disassembled and reassembled

Here are some pictures of my vents The foam I used The finished product

Hi all - I am re-doing the carpet in my '78 280z which entails sanding some rust, POR15 sealer, dynamat, etc. When I took off the carpet and sound deadener, I found these two holes that look like they're supposed to have body plugs, but don't. Any idea if these are supposed to stay open, or if there are plugs that are supposed to be in here, are they're available at a local parts store? These are in the passenger side footwell to the left of the fuse box. The one on the left is at the beginning of the transmission tunnel and the one on the right is through the firewall. NOTE: I've boxed both holes in blue with arrows pointing to them. The gray shown on the left side is just the lighting - that is a hole.

It is just a hole, normally has a rubber plug in it. I have used it to mount seat belt retractors with proper re-enforcement underneath where it exits through a frame box member.
