EVILC

I usually don't do this but you my friend are an idiot :stupid: I will wait to see if the admins delete your post and mine You have some reading to do before you post again....take care!

Is there anything here in the bay I should check for? I know about the early style clamps and the car does not come with the early style hood bumpers. Also, the car came with 12-69 seat belts: I am planning to sell the front fenders, hood (no supports on edge), and inspection lids. Replace them will the later style parts. If no one buys them, I will source some of the clips for the inspection lids and keep them. One of mine are broken....hmm.

Great info Carl! I have some NOS panels I am going to use back on the car. I will take a look at the holes. John, did you have to do anything special with the new panels? Funny, this entire time....I was thinking someone just screwed the panel to the door to make it fit. Carl, was this a mistake on Nissans part or just made that way. I am also gathering, looks like later in the build process.....Nissan change the hole patteren on the door itself? I also notice the window roller was in a different spot from where I thought it would be. I thought early Z cars had two on the drivers side near the mirror. My car had one and it was more near the middle of the door. I will check once I get the panel off to see if anything feel into the door.

Arne & Chris thanks. My 71 did not have those screws in the bottom of the door. So that makes sense that "most" of the 70 built cars had em. The panels do have the translucent plastic grommet that Chris speaks of. Mike, I will make notes here on this thread about "early" parts still used on my 2/70. As you said, it is kinda cool to know where the parts were stopped being used. Next few items I will look at is the speedo, radio (light color), and anything else you guys want me to take pics of. Thanks for all the feedback so far.

Tomorrow, I wil have to check to see if the emblem is solid on the backside....I don't think it is.

Mike my car does not have that ruber mat. Also, was this common on the early cars (factory)....two screws on the bottom of the door panel or common fix for door panels no staying on the door?

I have finally started to take #1905 apart. Just in the first day, I came across a few parts that I have not seen before and/or read about here on classic. So I guess I can add some kind of timeline or history on our Z cars. A recap, this car is a 2/1970 car all original down to the sparkplugs dated in 69. First item is a shield that is on both seats. I heard there is no part number for this part and I wasn't sure what we really call it? Also these hooks that are on the seats, are there two versions of these? Second item is a "solid chrome Z" on the pillar emblem. Top one is from my #1905 car and the bottom from a 6/70 car I parted a few months ago...both metal. Last item for now, spare tire. There a few other items I will post and comment about later.

Seat shields, definitely. Chris are you talking about a plastic shield at the bottom of the seats out toward the door side? Seat belt hooks I am looking for pics of this. I heard there are two versions of it. I have them both still on my 2/70 car.

For 5k, he is better off crushing them all. I hate to hear when people say...I don't need the money but look to get top dollar on their trash. Besides maybe a few good parts....that whole lot is junk. 8 four speeds....people give those away for free. Motors again, another part people give away or sell for $250 if running when pulled. This guy is a dreamer.....I remember him saying we are a cheap bunch of owners.

Thanks for sharing Carl. Looks like it was a good time and I will make it down next year. I see Rick made it down from up north.

My car isn't a barn find but rather Ebay. Seller listed the car wrong, a running 1979 280zx 5 speed and all complete! I placed a bid and won the car for $9.99 Got to love when people spell it like this: Datson

One here, 2/70.

Work bench: Walls: Left side of garage: I forgot to take pics of car #19 and his turbo roadstr. Had a great time and will make a trip down again soon....maybe next years x-mas party!

HLS30-00016: Vintage Z and HLS30-00042 Very clean Z - Burt Diamond if anyone knows who he is :flamedevi Me with Burt's old flame: Thinking about making an offer, it needs to come back to NY: 69 car too but forgot the vin, I do like this one:

Last week I went to Florida for a week or so and gave Jim, owner of all the cars below a call to stop by and check out his garage. If you are ever in the Tampa area or within driving distance I would say it is worth the trip. Jim is a stand up guy and knows his Z stuff. Enough of me, time for some pics: The man himself outside the garage: Bone dry 1/70 car waiting its turn: 1970 FairLady: HLS30-00058: Floors!

Nice to meet you, please be sure to join: nyzcc.org We are a local new Z club to you and have plenty of members in LI with early Z cars. Can't wait to meet you and see the car!

Thought someone would call up and find out what number it is: http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/1464972691.html

2/70 #1905

Ok....so there wasn't much left of the car. It was a clue int car and I tried removing the trans tunnel and got 3/4 of the way off and ripped it! >=( The car was filled of junk and 1/2 of it wasn't even for a Z. Did get: 2400 valve cover e31 head with intake and exhaust manis (SU carbs mia) head light buckets decent fenders ign lock and orginal keys steering wheel fuel door nob Other small things...metal emblems and stuff. The car was far far far from being saved. Firewall wasn't connected on the passenger side. No floors and car filled with water! None of the rubber strips were in good shape.

Hey, I am in contact with the owner of this car again....four small trees has fallen on the car since, busting out the glass and messing up the roof. At this point, may be able to get this one for a trade of a stock glass and a few parts....

Depends on what you ask over there on hybridz........90% of the questions have been answered twice already. What is your real question? You have said anything about what psi you plan to run at.....standard 5 speed will not hold up to the 550hp you are looking for. Search over on hbz and read through other turbo builds and what hp levels they got to. I am in the process of building a L30et motor. More reading than posting, honestly.

Paul, pm me your number so we can talk.

Very nice, few guys over there are waiting for your intro and pics. Excited to have another 240z from the island.

Ok spoke to the seller and I am heading up this weekend to pull everything I want and leave the shell. Then he will take it to the crusher....rip 70 z car. Going to be fun working in the rain!
