Do you know if these louvers are from a Z car? I've been told they look like they came off of a Z car, but I don't know. I thoght they were for a Mustang f Fastback, but there too long. I have a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 and they are about 8 inches too long for the back window.

At first glance, those are not factory. :disappoin Allthough, I'm not sure, but I will research it. I had a couple of Z cars with them, and they had pull pins (fingertip type), to completely remove them from the car(mounted at the basic 4 corners, but inset). I could be wrong, yet those look like they are for Toyota's. Of course there is the off chance that both cars were from the same area, that they had the same aftermarket brands installed.:classic:

Hey you know what? If you click on Bambikiller240"s gallery, I believe his are stock pullpin type. It's not the first row of pics, but the second. Oh and there is this DEFINATE DISRACTION PHOTO next to it!:love:ROFL:love:ROFL

They look the same, but on Bambikiller240's, it only has 7 fins, where as on mine has 8 fins.

I think he had it right the first guess.... looks a lot like the louvers seen on the early Supra's.... most of the Z louvers were shorter, or closer to the window.

Supra could be it. Hey by the way, One SWEET VEIW at the end of that race! (gallery):classic:

I have only 6 fins on my 240's louvers mine are the flat screw down kind if that makes sense , I pulled up a pic of my 82 supra and gotta day they have 8 fins and look very similar to those :geek:

My Louvers are dealer add-on's. There were/are no "factory" louvers for 240Z's. The ones on my car do have a funky "pull-pin" kind of latch at the bottom two corners.

I wonder if there is a "factory image"/option list that would show? Yours do not have the pins up top?:classic:

No pins up top, just hinges.

FWIW, ther were no options available on 240Z's from the factory to my knowledge. True you could get a car with either an Auto or Manual trans, but everthing else was standard from Nissan.

Dealers added stuff to the car as "Factory Authorized" options, but they were sourced in the US from aftermarket manufacturers. Wheels, Stripe kits, A/C, Sun Roofs, and Louvers, etc.

That makes sense. Perhaps what I'm remembering, is a hinge up top, as a matter of fact, thats right! (brain fart)I used to clean the back glass and would lay the lovours(or how ever it's spelled), on the roof top:classic: :

Could be for Honda's too...

those Accords and Early Civics had louvers
