Howdy y'all...New to the site, not to the carz. Thought I'd see if anyone could identify this early z part. It's approx. 7.5" tall and 9" wide. Same material used for handbrake cover. Answer will follow should no one answer correctly.

That wrapped around and covered the wiring harness, as it past from the fuse box area, under the dash support then disappeared again under the dash.

Way to go Victor, that was quick! I'll have to come up with something a tad more difficult next time. Adios

Good try there Mr. Dunham, but it's pretty tough to stump this crowd on Z stuff. However, welcome aboard! Please remember we have a search function on this site...very useful.

Long pig-tail fuse box wiring cover! Wanna sell it?

Great to be aboard. Thanks for the reminder about the search function. This however was more along the lines of a fun little test and not a personal search for an answer. Some of y'all might have seen my old car on the cover of Dr. Ben Millspaughs' book, ZCar-A Legend in it's Own Time. Have since sold that one and bought a Series1 for my next restoration. However it, a early71 parts car and 20yrs of parts I'd collected went up in flames 5 yrs ago. BUMMER! It wasn't all bad, I did manage to save all the NOS 240 parts that I'd bought out from a local dealership. YAHOOOO! Adios

Here's a picture of one being used as intended on this car currently listed on Ebay.(Well almost...doesn't quite cover the wiring as intended)

Just curious, did they come on the later year cars or were they only on the early ones?

I have a 1 owner '73 that's pretty much all original and I don't have one of those.

My early 72 had one. With the short pig tailed fuse box

:disappoin Damn, I'm about to cry over those Z's in that fire...........

Yup, it was a sad sight, especially watching your babies going up in flames and knowing there's nothing you can do to stop it.

On a side note: the car on the left was HLS30-03548, mfg.4/70 and has/had a somewhat famous sibling. It's twin was also shipped thru the Port of Houston, is also a Dark Green/Butterscotch car and is #03547.......the car Wick Humble restored in his book.

And that my friends is the rest of the story.
