Going to give the inner hatch seal the "old college try" today. When removing the old one, about half of it was tucked under the plastic panels, and the other half was over them. Over has a more "finished" look I guess. Which way should they be? 72 240 btw Thanks! Leonard

Hiya. I managed to remove the old and worn out fuzzy strips with sharp knife. I just straightened the staples and pull it out. I got the new strips from MSA. Should i glue them back to place or what? I'd rather use some "soft" method to install them rather than just stapling them. New strips have some removable stripe on the backside, first i tought that there is glue under it but there werent. What is the purpose of this? Cheerz

left only the a pillars and headliner because they are mint and didn't want to press my luck. a lot of the tar mat fell right off with just a plastic scraper. I need to find a place to buy dry ice at so i can get the rest off as painlessly as possible. one thing I noticed is that the PO had the wrong inner rubber shift boot(not the outer vinyl one but the one inside that that seals from the outside elements) the one they had was too small seems i need a bigger one.. I need to find where to get that and also the smaller rubber one over the gear bushings.cant wait to find more time to get rid of the rest of the tar mat then paint the interior with the SEM rust shield I bou…

after I apply sem rust shield to the interior of my gutted out car I plan on a layer of fatmat(sound deadening material). They sell it in 50mill and 80mill thickness. since I need to put my vinyl back over it I was thinking the thinner one but still want to cut down road noise as much as possible. also is 50 square feet enough to do entire floor hatch and firewall areas? or should I get 100 sqft and do the doors and roof also? thanks in advance

Hey guys I finally did the heater core on the Z. All the interior hoses were purchased at autozone and fit almost perfectly (one needed "some" trimming but it fit great). If anyone needs the part numbers or pictures or help with the install let me know. Jan P.S Oh lord is it nice to have heat when its cold outside. (and yes I know ~30 isn't cold for you individuals up north)

Has anyone tried a plastic welder? I am thinking about getting one to repair hairline cracks in the plastic panels. I was thinking that they would work like when welding cracks in metal and stop them from expanding by welding a little past the crack. I want to get some input from someone that has used them since I don't know anyone that has used one.

Hello everyone, I am not satisfied with the OEM Datsun Z car rearview mirrors that I have been finding and I was wondering if anyone has replaced their mirror with a domestic style windshield mount mirror? I have restored my Z and just hate it that I cannot find a clean OEM rearview mirror. Either the glass is messed up or the plastic is all toasty from years of heat and sunlight. Please let me know what you guys (& Gals) have done. :classic:

Hi there, I have been going through my boxes of parts in preparation for dash reassembly and have come across a couple of map light frames. I am referring to the black outer frame. One has a small lip across the top of the frame above the clear lens and the other one doesn't. Did the first years have plane frames? Thanks. Carl

I'm looking for someone in the DFW area who has a butterscotch interior, preferably from Les at Classic Datsun, so i can have a color reference for the rest of my vinyl. I'm going to buy seat covers from him in the near future, but i have to do the rest of my vinyl interior immediately and i don't think he's able to send me a sample.

So I'm not a big fan of the vinyl that was on the floor in my '72 240Z. Plus I want to change the interior color from burgandy to black. I've already ordered the plastic pieces, now I need to get carpet. I want to carpet the entire floor right up to the door sills, wheel wells, shock towers, transmission tunnel, etc. I still want access to my tool doors as well. I've looked at the various kits (and searched the previous carpet posts), but can't get a definitive answer on what to order. I'll call some of the carpet suppliers (MSA, C&H, Black Dragon), but I would like to know if anyone has done what I'm proposing? I've been told the 240 and 260 bodies are "essential…
