Good point. So I have decided to limit my search to Florida, where I can drive to inspect and potentially have a mechanic inspect. So, that limits my market quite a bit. There is 1 on BAT auction in Miami that is a time capsule. 31,000 miles 1970 240z! But the bidding is at 26k with 6 days left. Too rich for me. And we want a semi daily driver. Not a museum piece.

I would like to introduce another high quality new reproduction part from Japan. It is for 1969-1973 Emergency brake cable assembly. It even come with pins at the end. They are NLA from Nissan. I own few NOS ones, but these look just like original ones, and made by named brake company for a shop in Japan. It cost about $250 each. Esprist

It looks like you ground off the protective zinc plating on the steel, which will lead to the clip rusting rather quickly. Might me easiest to spray some clear coat over the assembly to help protect it. Otherwise, looks very nice under there.

No photos from underneath the car. No idea of engine health. Plenty of band-aid fixes under the hood. Most likely it's crack pipe pricing at $14K. Too many unknowns for someone to give you anything better than a swag. However, if you want a Z really bad, this might be a bad Z for you.

Considering none of the drawings are from Nissan, it doesn't matter too much what they look like. Unfortunately, Nissan doesn't produce a vehicle I would consider owning. The 370Z lacks the practicality of the S30, and the slave cylinder failures turned me off. The last Nissan product I considered owning was the 240SX.

Also I'd like to thank in advance again, I truly appreciate who have purchased my product in support to my son's #406 project Z-car.

The tags are ready and they look awesome. 7 available month/year. Please PM me those interested. Thank you for your support. Here are some photos of the final product.

Nice job on that stitch Charlie! Maybe we could work together

So as you might have figured out I am kind of STOKED about this. This happened pretty smoothly all things considered. I committed myself after selling the Mikunis, which forced me to make this happen or not be able to drive my car this season. I also had major home improvement projects going on , including building a Z shop behind my house. The ignition side of this install I have been using for a year or so and it's been very stable and tunable. This fuel part included a lot more changes because of fuel pressure requirements needed converting from my carbed car. So far no leaks and very quiet fuel pump has worked great. The beauty of this is the options for tuning you can never achieve with carbs. I drive my car everyday and every chance I get - so being able to get in and turn the key to a well running sports car to run to the store or a cruise is awesome. I have lost nothing in regards to the driving experience compared to when it was carbed with the Mikunis. I never had the induction noise experience since I ran a CAI, not sure if I would have heard it with my exhaust anyway, so nothing lost there. Admittling the view under the hood is not as classic or pretty as the triples, but OER makes FI triples!!! I do miss the punch of the accel pumps of the triples, but I'll get this dialed the same eventually. When I get to the point where I'm feeling confident on tuning I will take her to the dyno. Since I bumped CR, I hope to see a little gain . Right now with very little tuning and conservative timing it already feels as strong as before . I want to thank Richard- chicken man- for helping me out getting a baseline tune going on this. As usual , the Datsunguys are a class act . These big projects can get discouraging and frustrating , but hearing it light off for the first time after all the work makes it worth while. Richard got on line with me and I was tuning at 11pm that night in the garage. I was in the dog house after that with the Mrs. since I stunk up the house with exhaust fumes , but I cooked dinner the next night and all was good. The next morning after Richard put a tune on my car I drove it on its maiden voyage to C&C . It drove pretty damn well too!

Well I got some gas in the tank today and turned the key, I wasn't really expecting the engine to fire up the first time but it would have been nice, she's going to make me work a little more before she gives it up. Something to do with the Megasquirt no doubt, I'll give megasquirt Matt a call and see if he can help me out again. Got the the rear glass in today,all the rubber seals are in now, as well as the leather interior pieces,cleaned and dressed the tires,and installed the Mr.K rear view mirror,

Now we know who to contact for parts

You call that hoarding?
