Hey im in Fallston Md. Pretty much snowed in here too, have a little over 2 feet.

$1500 to $1800 I would guess

Which would be the better choice in 240z triple carb set ups, Mikuni 44's, or Weber DCOE's?

I have 2 1973's and they both have speedos that start at 10, did they ever start at 0?

Yea, from what i can see from your pictures, you car isnt really that bad, i would say that the front structural members of your car as well as the air tubes are about as bad as mine were, as for your interior though, those rats probably trashed it. Also, i had trouble with those damn acorn nuts in the tail lights too, i wound up just pulling them out of the plastic with vice grips.

Did you try to start your engine to see if it ran right before you started tearing her down, it would be shame to put those nice new webers on and then find out that it has a blown rear crank seal or something.

Yes, it does look a little to teal, and i did use primer, light gray primer though, im comparing it to this, i was under the impression that the original color looked like this:

Here is what it looked like on my water pump pulley, with primer: You cant tell from the picture, but it looks like a dark teal/ navy blue.

I purchased some engine block paint from classic datsun motorsports. I was wondering if anybody else has used the same stuff because the color i have is almost a teal blue, and it doesnt resemble the original datsun blue color.

Does anybody have a picture of, or a copy of the 110 persimmon red, or 905 red paint swatches, or at least a sample square picture of them? I'm trying to decide which i want to paint my car with, and the bodyshop guy needs something for reference. Thanks.

Isn't this a tragedy, possibly the ugliest Z ive ever seen. http://rides.streetfire.net/rides/1972-DATSUN-240Z_1045047.htm
