Where are the girls??.
You know, I'm just glad that this isn't a politically correct forum, because then it would be too boring. While I was in the Navy, we had to be careful of what we said, especially when there was a woman in the same room or an officer. It sucked. Every once in a while, we would get a lady in that was "one of the guys," and it made it fun and easier to work. However, not every woman is like this, so please keep that in mind. And especially here in America to where right now, in this current day and time, all a woman has to do is make a false accusation against a man, and that man goes to jail 9 times out of 10 in most states. I could spout off the while history of that, which I have been learning about the past few months, but it would be too long of a write up. Even though I'm a new member of this forum, I'd like to see it remain fun, but just keep in mind to be respectful for others, please. Justin

To our friends in Oz
Aye, and here I am, I don't watch the news because all they really report over here in the states is mainly negative or false to have the network ratings go up, and I missed this. My prayers to everyone there in the troubled areas, and may you and your family be safe on your travels Rick.

Well, anyhow, not worth beating this dead horse anymore. At least I'm getting a refund. But when I get the belts from MSA, I will start a new thread on seat belts.

Stay away from...
Ok, I was LIED to when I called them and was told that this was a suitable replacement for the lap belt portion of the 3 point system. I asked the right questions and everything else. The fact that I was lied to s what got me. When the mistake was the company's fault, and not the consumer's, then it is a different story. That is what I got when I talked to them today. They even said that the belt will not work in my car at all. I was lied to when I called them the first time in this case. I don't mind paying for S&H both ways if its something I ordered, and then don't need it because I found something else to use, but not in the case to where I was lied to to begin with. I asked all the right questions, and got something that is only suitable to be used in a back seat, middle of the back seat at that. At least I'm getting the money for the part back. And I will be reporting this to the BBB. In the mean time, I found a suitable replacement belt from a 1971 240z, and I also talked to MSA today, and they have somene that is making a 3 point retractable system that is going to replace the seat belts for the 240z's from 1970 on up. When taxes come in, I will get a set of these and see how they work, and post the results when done. By the way, I have a hard time articulating what I'm trying to say, so it does get frustrating for me sometimes when trying to communicate what I mean.

I don't have any problem paying for shipping for one way, especially when I was told the it was suppose to be a replacement over the phone. But not both ways. I will be reporting this to the BBB also, especially after I was lied to. And also, mine just needs new spirng assemblies for both sides, in which I haven't been able to come up with something to work, yet... However, I spoke with MSA today, and there is a company that is making a 3 point retractable system that will work with the 70 and up 240 Z's that's suppose to bolt right in. I'll wait for taxes to come in and see for myself, and post on here the results of the system. Justin

Stay away from...
Well, upon ordering a new driver's side seat belt for my 1972 240z through this website: http://www.carbodyparts.net They are actually US Auto Parts Network, and I even called them to make sure that the seat belt I ordered was the right one. Received it today, and it wasn't even close. It was a universal 2pc retractable belt. Well, I gave them a call, and they are going to give me a refund, but not on the shipping and handling, when the S&H is half of the item itself. I will be going to the BBB website later and putting in a complaint in hopes of getting the refund on the S&H itself. And believe me, I tried to get that refunded also. Stay away from these people. Any others to stay away from, please post here for us all.

I've been in an accident!
Besides the pain, thankfully you're ok, and thankfully it wasn't the Z. Get well soon, and take that lady for all she's worth so you hove more money for your Z.

JC Whitney door seals
A lot of good info in this thread, now its making me think of what I should go with my 2.1972 240z. I do need an entire kit though, so I just might go with the MSA precision kit. Any other suggestions?

Series I Steering Wheel Going for Record Price!
I've been keeping an eye on this one, for when I replace my steering wheel with one I like, I'm selling mine. It is in no way in the same condition as that one, however, I still have the horn pad, and the wheel itself needs to be sanded and painted and refinished. And my horn, well, I need to touch the wire to ground to get it to beep at the moment....

Redoing fuel system..
Well, I decided to do some of my major structural stuff, (like the hole under my battery tray and in my firewall, and the rocker panels and dog legs, as well as start getting the interior prepped and ready for carpet), that needs done first before I get the hoses for my fuel system.
