Tokico Rear Strut Spacer Tubing for 240z
I would think the thing to do is make the new struts the same length over all as the strut that comes out. Make the spacer what ever it needs to be to accomplish this

Very Original 1973 240Z in San Diego, 69K miles
69,000 miles. Looks like a pretty nice survivor. It's a little expensive but for the shape seems pretty reasonable

Exciting news: I just got a 240Z race car!
I figure with a race car interior then the roof color will have a bigger impact. No headliner, no door panels, nothing but painted metal between you and the great outdoors

My first Z was black and you knew it, even with the windows down. The dark blue will have the same basic effect...

I don't car for Type 4 Type 1 is ok but I believe 2 and 3 would be easier to see when lapping traffic. I also like that 2 and 3 are a little different and they have lighter color roofs so the car will be cooler inside

510 SSS parts number
We have the car parts manuals web pages that show the exploded view of the 510 and the 240z and give the parts numbers. Is there something like this for the 510 SSS? I am looking for some of the carb parts numbers but can't locate a diagram or break down. Thanks, C

Do you have a European independent mechanic that works on old cars. Most of the high performance European cars from the 60's & 70's had Webers

Fuse box missing a connector
The purple box is probably a fuse that was added to deal with the lost fuse location

1971 HLS30-14938 "Lily" build
I got one side assembled about 11:00 last night. Domes in gives enough room with a little effort to get the nut started. I will have to add another washer but I bet one they are initially compressed it will be easier to add the washer...

Starting problem
I agree with ZH start at the fuel pump. Bad pump, bad power or obstruction...

1971 HLS30-14938 "Lily" build
No worries on the ugly welding commentary. I'm a function over form guy on most things... So the large washers go with the dome side in???? That seems counter intuitive but it would probably give me the room I need to get the nut started. The car is upside down on the rotisserie so no loading and very easy to manipulate... Is there a smaller washer on both ends? I thought there was only a washer on the bar end not the nut end?

Worked on the front suspension some more. Tried to assemble the Tension Rods. There must be a trick to it. I searched through some old threads but couldn't find anything. How do you compress the new rubber to get the nut started? Also which side of the bushing faces which way. there is a flat side and a rounded side. I have the flat sides in right now. Trying to find some knuckle bolts right now. I think I have some in my parts car stash. I also worked on the front fender today. Welded in the patch panel and use the shrinking disc to try to make it right. It's not perfect but it will work... - 280z parts for sale
