I was thinking about freshening up the suspension!
I may do that. I have sourced a couple of sets but wouldn't mind a spare set

I won't be using any urethane bushings on my build. By the way take good care of that splash pan. They are hard to find in that kind of condition and priced accordingly

Motor never gets hot?
Lots of people think no thermostat is the way to go, but engineers are smarter than most people give them credit for... At least some are... By the looks of the color in the housing you could use some good antifreeze in it too, to prevent the block from rusting...

1972 Datsun 240Z $2500
The first car is gonna need frame work up front to go along with the rust repairs The second one is gonna have rust too but he wants a lot more, but I see cars like this or worse bring this kind of money on ebay all the time. I believe the days of the cheap 240z are gone... As a side note GA is a bill of sale state for cars of this vintage and they can be hard to title in other states. You should check with your DMV before you buy a car with a bill of sale only. SC use to not bat an eye at this but I believe we are starting to tighten up on this due to fraud issues

Yes, I am really surprised they are available. I wonder how limited their supply is. It might be time to finish some dies...

Series-1 Hatch Vent Duct Clips & Restoration Info Needed
Ok, So now I'm confused. Are there two sets of clips? Two on the "hoover" vent section (90829-E4100) and two on the hatch opening (08961-43210)? That's what Kats diagrams appear to show because they have different call numbers. If so what retains each? Do the Grill Assembly (90950-E4100) pins connect both clips to the hatch?

Series 1 Looking For Some Love
Yes, but hasn't been that way for a couple of years now. That car has a lot of rust to be a Texas car. You know there is a lot more you can't see...

79 280zx: 3 wires going into the EFI relay
A complete harness is probably worth a lot more on Ebay than what scrap is bringing these days...

That's interesting I tried to order some from just about every vendor six months to a year ago and all replied NLA. I ended up sourcing some out of Japan...

Rich, I believe Mike @ Banzai is the only source for wiper bags unless someone else started providing them too

So I assume you have spoken to MSA on this? I assume these are newly sourced not NOS parts?

I suspect Tabco didn't leave more metal in that area because it had a tendency to wad and wrinkle up. The original panels seem thinner than the tabco patch panels so it would have been easier to deal with the excess metal in the folds

I was thinking about freshening up the suspension!
Found it http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/classic22d06/10-2261 I wonder if they are repopping them? They were unobtainium for a while.. Can somebody bump one of the Z store guys?

Do you have a link to the stock mustache bar bushings at MSA or what page you saw it on? I am unable to find it...

Too Good to Be True? – 125 Amp Bolt in Alternator @ Datsun Store
ZH That was part of my point earlier. How long will 500 CCA's run what ever you exceed your 60 amp alternator for? A good while I would think if it's healthy... Also CO made my point also about being out in the rain. Most of these cars when reworked to this level tend to avoid rain for the most part...
