This is a refurbished OE rear marker set - not some of the cheap aftermarket crap! The housings are in excellent condition, not a spec of rust or corrosion, no damage to the wiring or connectors. The gaskets are fresh and flexible (look new), no aging or other deterioration. The IKI lenses have been cleaned and polished, no cracks or chips. The SS bezels are straight and have been polished. Included are the mounting screws and replated fender clips. $60 includes free shipping within CONUS. Payment via PayPal.

Thanks for the response, PM sent.

Refurbished 240Z bell crank, new yellow zinc plating. Replated accelerator-to-bell crank rod, used nylon bushings and C-clip. $20 includes shipping within CONUS. Payment via PayPal.

This was part of a poly bushing kit I bought from MSA a few years ago, fits all S30's and S130's. Never installed. $12 includes shipping within CONUS. Payment via PayPal.

This one is out of a '73, looks identical to my '71 so I don't think there were any changes due to the bumper changes. Thanks for checking.

Thanks.

Hey Jim @zKars or Philip @240260280, anything like this in your parts hoard?

New repro unit listed for $75 at http://www.240zrubberparts.com/

Thanks. Just checked them - they have a complete grill but not the components. No joy.

If I can't find replacements, I'll try that or consider bonding some sleeve material into the channel. Thanks.

Pretty sure they are aluminum - very light, the cracked one flexes too easily for steel.

I am refurbishing a 240Z grill and need replacement outboard vertical struts, both sides. On this grill, one is broken cleanly and the other is cracked. So... if anyone has parted out a grill, lets make a deal. Thanks.

I recently bought a Covercraft poly/cotton cover and well pleased with my choice. The fit is excellent and the construction looks to be the same. The finish on the material is a bit hard, should probably soften up a bit with a couple of washings. My intended use is strictly indoor storage, the cover will likely outlive me!

Try some mineral spirits on a Q-tip to gently work thru the overspray and not put a lot of pressure on the printed elements of the plate.

That is one fine looking car and you are doing an outstanding job on it. Congratulations on your find - Safari Gold rules! How about adding the VIN to your signature?

You're a couple of hundred miles from the D/FW area but we always have something going on. Check out the Cowtown Z Club (Fort Worth) and the Z Club of Texas (Dallas) on Facebook for our local events and meetings. New faces are always welcome. Hope to Z'ya soon!

Science Marches On!

Be sure to schedule a visit with Bruce in Philadelphia for the full anal-retentive approach to Z care and upgrades!

Mine is E3001, 8 3/4" from the shoulder of the stopper to the tip. I measured from the shoulder because that's what hits the tube and controls the depth into pan. Mine is original to the car.

You should have a second hard line down on the frame rail under the fuel pump with an end pointed up just like the fuel supply line. That's the return line to the tank. It is a smaller diameter than the supply line.

This is the best I can offer - taken while getting the handbrake installed.

On my first (and only) Z I went the budget route on all the lines several years ago and no regrets now. I cleaned and stripped them thoroughly with a Scotch Brite, cleaned again with degreaser followed by acid wash. Taped the threads on all nuts, primed with self-etching primer followed by a silver metallic paint and topped with a clear coat. Here's the results from back in 2011 when the car was being put together, everything is still just as bright. With no significant heat near any of the lines, there may be little benefit from using a caliper paint.

@Zedyone_kenobi Stephen - you owe no one an apology and no need to feel "survivor's guilt". There will always be some who are more fortunate than others. It sounds like you and your wife did your part as did so many others. We have a good friend in Fort Bend county whose home was saved by a levee that held. Her three adult children and their families also came thru OK - one also in Fort Bend, one in Friendswood, one in Brazoria County. Luck is where you find it, there is no other explanation required. I'm glad to hear you and yours are OK. You and others with no damage will be a major part of the foundation for Houston's recovery - be proud of that opportunity. Looking forward to the next time to see you and swap stories - yours will be the best. Jim
