New license plate lamp assembly
Here are some pics of a OE license light. Compare yours and how it is assembled to see if there is anything different. The OE light has a rubber gasket between the two pieces, light should only be visible thru the two lenses that face down towards the license plate. Hope this helps.

Big Mileage Event
We hit the big 100k miles yesterday. I was able to get before and after pics but I was on a busy tollway headed to a club meet-up at the time of the rollover so I could not capture the all 9's or all 0's. I know, poor planning on my part! One more month and we celebrate our 55th anniversary together.

We hope our Safari Gold 1971 Dattsun 240Z will finally go for sale next Monday
What an amazing restoration! I only wish I had this much reference material available when I redid my car 15 years ago (not that I could have approached this level of quality). I see what appears to be light reflected on the spokes of the steering wheel, suggesting the finsh is a semi-gloss or gloss. The original finish on the spokes and hub was a non-reflective satin black.

Z's on BAT and other places collection
First and foremost, WELCOME TO THE GROUP!!! Stick around long enough and you will find us a positive and supportive bunch, probably the best on the web. If your heart is set on a 240Z, expect to pay a premium price for a solid and well-sorted car. The one in your link seems to be very well done. Any 240Z under $15k is likely to be a project car to some degree and may require a serious commitment to complete it. If you are open to other model S30's, look into the more available 280Z's.

240z Airbox
FWIW, my 12/70 car came from the factory with 4-screw carbs, heat riser, and flapper airbox installed.

240z Airbox
@Patcon Charles, this style is a match for mine - original to my car. Pretty sure the heat riser was added several months prior to our builds. Jim
