I have a pair of front valences from my early 260Z for sale in the classifies. Interest has picked up in them. See link below. http://www.datsunclassifieds.com/showproduct.php/product/7161/title/front-valance-corners/cat/4 Regards, Fixitman

I have a 2 1/2" Borla exhaust system for sale in the classifieds. I'll give you a good deal on the muffler and any of the other stainless steel parts. Fixitman

QuickorBrochure.pdf This 1982 brochure may be of interest. It appears Quickor offered springs on an inquire basis only. I have their anti-sway bars on my early 260Z. Regards, Fixitman

The trimmer prefers to measure and install any trim item he makes. Sorry, but he has declined.

I'll ask if the pattern was saved and get a cost estimate. I believe a half hide is needed. Add a backing, insulation layer,binding plus labor and my customary markup and the headliner becomes very expensive.

Sorry I haven't responded sooner. I missed your post. Seats are Recaro LS's in matching leather. Dash will be stock. If it could be done, the cost would be prohibitive to cover the dash in leather. Fixitman

Can anyone identify whether the following horn information is for a hi or low frequency horn? Miymotohorn Japan Model ME 12V8A115dB Date X3 Thanks, Fixitman

Outside of Mount Holly, Burlington County. And yourself?

Thanks for the photos but I need choke cable photos for a 260Z. Fixitman

How does the cable run to the lever? Does it run along side the console wire bundle on the trans tunnel or behind the heater core? Thanks for the photo. Fixitman

There are two openings, one over the other I think, in the firewall between the heater connections and a relay. Which openings is for the choke cables? I haven't been able to find a clear photo of the firewall that the shows the choke cables and firewall grommet. Thanks, Fixitman

Thanks for the info. That solves the mystery. Fixitman

Can anyone tell me the purpose of the (3) forward and (2) aft screws around the shift boot opening? Thanks, Fixitman

You found it. Thanks for your help. Fixitman

I'm thinking it might be inside the upper reel.

Just bring this thread to your attention again.

Thanks for pointing out that the holes are covered. I'll see if the trimmer can punch them out. These photos show the detail of the rear carpet with an attached pad and hold down rings and the storage compartments lined with carpet. I'll upload more photos as they become available. Fixitman

Maybe next year. The interior should be completed by the end of May, then the glass goes back in. A little more mechanical work and maybe completion by the end of June. Fixitman

First photos of the headliner installation are attached. So far so good. Fixitman

I think these clips are for the seatbelts in an early 260Z. But it's been too long for me to remember exacty where they go. Can anyone help? Thanks, Fixitman

After seeing the attached article in Sports Car Graphic (May 1984), I purchased the air cleaner from Jim Cook Racing back in the 80's. It takes a K&N filter for a Lamborghini Countach S. There is even enough room inside for the short Mikuni air horns. The cover attaches with dzus fasteners. Jim had a subcontractor that fabricated the air cleaners. I remember sending him the hole pattern for 40 mm Mukuni's to make up the mounting plate. I have not come across another one in the last 25 years. Regards, Fixitman JimWolf-AirCleaner.pdf

After looking at a photo of the original plumbing, it appears that just the carb preheat line was eliminated. The heater valve controls coolant flow. Am I missing something? Fixitman

The heater hoses are not plugged. I'll have to look into how the shop didn't the plumbing. The car is not on the road yet. But the interior is about 80% complete. I hope to have it on the road in the next few months. Thanks for bringing this item to my attention. Fixitman

Attached are a few more photos. Fixitman

Since the original sound deadener is still in place, we decided not to add another layer.
