    You can always just hook a +12V wire to the horn directly just to check that they work at all. One side is grounded so you need to pull both wires (if they are there) and ground one connector and put the voltage on the other connector. Check fuses also. Possibly the center cap has lost its metal ring. You can pull off the center horn button by rocking it to remove it.
  3. Have you considered returning the kit?....or at least talking to them about the problem. They seem to want to help. Bill\ PS You won't know unless you try...maybe at least they will remove them from the catalog if they are not suitable.
  4. You can't use the 240 retractor...the 70 model doesn't have one.
  5. What kind of shot exactly are you asking for...meaning do you want a shot of the insides of the receptacles or just of the outsides of the buckles. I don't have retractors if that is what you want. What year are we talking about?
  6. I thought I did use my name....isn't that it without a space:stupid:

    "I need to take off the decorative side moulding strips to paint the 240. How are they attached and are there preferred removal and reattachment techniques? Same question for the emblems." The side molding is attached with double sided tape. Heat it a little with a heat gun and pull it off. Just buy new strips to replace with; it is available at parts stores and is cheap. Some of the emblems are attached thru holes in the metal work with clips holding them on the backside. Just access them where you can and carefully squeeze the clips to remove them. (especially if you plan to reuse them...the pins are plastic and can break easily)

    I guess then it was you in the "other" catagory!

    Where is the one "other" from?

    Right you are Laddie! Just in a hurry as you must have been with Americca.:stupid:

    How about a poll about which state/ country you live in to see where the spread is....
  12. I would think the timing needs to be set to the 280 specs with the FI and elec. Ign. Just a guess...
  13. There are excellent articles written about the early Zs on this site...do a search on history. The 70-72 are the best of the early Zs. The 260 was a poor attempt at smog requirements. They are underpowered and had a "bad carb". The 280s were much heavier to meet newer regulations and were kind of ugly with the larger bumpers. That's just a little info from my book of knowledge (which is little as far as history). They can all be relatively easy to mod for more HP and better handling depending on the type of use you have in mind. Paul Newman used to race them, so that is some indication of someone with money thinking they were a pretty good car. I love mine...that's for sure. Mine has been relatively trouble free for the past 22 years I've owned it.:classic:
  14. Heads or tails and you lose....I'll bet it's the front and rear; both of which have lights normally.
  15. Leave Enrique alone.... can't you see it was late for him!

  20. Enrique, Are you starting some new slang? What is a dizzy?
  21. billcapp replied to tanny's topic in Body & Paint
    This is the only one I've seen.
  22. Even though I'm on a modem now (56K) my connections are only at 26K but this Z site is one of the fastest loading sites that I frequent. I'd say I like it the way it is.
  23. Where are you located just in case someone doesn't want to take the time to go to EBay?
