Mounting emblems
I purchased Nissan fenders when I replaced mine. They have holes in them already.

Mounting emblems
Well I don't know how popular it is, but what's wrong with putting them on like the factory did it?

Proud new 1970 240Z Owner!!
Rings??? How did the car ever run, with the old valves? Does this make sense to anyone?

Mounting emblems
Why would anyone not want to put the emblems on their car the way the factory did it?

Wiring harness questions - early '71 240Z (long)
Paypal is not the cause of identity theft anymore than any other secure site. Of course it's your privilege, but I think maybe you were a bit hastey.

What was originally in the 1970 240Z toolbins?
Yeah, he's talking about the plastic tool bins (covers) behind the seats in the early models. No doubt they got broken a lot from people sliding their seats back with stuff trapped behind the seats.

Luggage Straps
Dang this is your third or fourth post, you really are needy. J/K. The metal parts of the straps are about the cheapest things I've ever seen. I think Datsun could have done a lot better. They didn't even put chrome on them. Maybe you can buy nylon strapping and make some. There's no safety issue here, so I think homemade would work.

Eat your heart out......
I have my stated value policy with Nationwide. I have all my cars and my house with them. It can be done. With Hagerty, you car has to almost be a trailer queen, or you only drive to shows. They told me my car wasn't qualified.

Quality of various wheel brands
I'd like to get a consensus on the quality and appearance of a few of the various wheels brands such as Minilite, Panasport and Konig. Specifically those brands that make the Minilite knockoffs like the Panasport Formulas and Konig Rewinds. The Konig price difference is amazing; how can they do that and guarantee identical quality. I like the look of the Panasport Formula Gunmetal w/ polished lip. The Konig Rewinds are similar but not exactly like the Minilites. Panasport---------Konig----------Minilite
