I bought an early 240 a few years ago (a 6/70). One thing led to another and much of the underneath side needed replaced. Both frame rails and both floor pans. It is still at the body shop. The underneath side of the car looks fantastic. I think it will look factory after painting. My car is in the final stages of metal work and priming will begin by the end of the week. The early cars did not have any undercoating. My body shop is strongly encouraging me to have them apply "raptor". Apparently, it is clear and they would add color tint to match the paint work.

My Z seems to be running rich. I have swapped in the SU rebuilt carb set and adjusted as best I know how with the unisyn tool and mixer adjustment on the bottom.

Converting my car from FI to triple 47mm OER carburetors for my Datsun Spirit motor. The canister and anything associated with the FI has been removed permanently, mounting brackets etc. Looking for some ideas at this time on venting the tank once that line has been removed. Appreciate all the help.

Part of a multipart project. This is a N42/MN47 NA engine. I just finished it up and hope to do a longer test drive tomorrow.

Can anyone tell me the bolt size that goes through the lower joint of the steering shaft where it attaches to the steering rack? Is it supposed to be a shoulder bolt or just a standard bolt? Also, what size and thread? Car is a 76 280z if that matters. Thanks

Quick question - I know I read this in someone's post, but now it's not coming in a search. Do I want the more compliant rubber on the leading or trailing side of the frame mount? TIA

For anyone like me looking for a nice set of original D hubcaps, there’s a set on eBay for sale. For the tidy sum of $6495.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/325649533956?hash=item4bd2398c04:g:J~EAAOSwD59kWrp5 I think for that price a set of early rims should be included.. Guess I’ll stick with my slots..

Hey folks, I am in the process of changing my gear oil at diff and trans. when I opened the diff fill plug, probably a 1/2 cup or so of fluid poured out. Either the car was tilted to fill, or a fill point was used i'm not aware of. Is there an advantage to this? or should i fill it in the standard manner, fill at fill plug til it drips, and stop?
