Tips For Cleaning Up Surface Rust In Engine Bay
I've had good luck with S.EM's rust inhibator. It turns the rust black but stops it dead in it's tracks.

COVID-19
He was asymptomatic a month or so ago and quarantined for 2 weeks. They're saying he's actually sick and feeling it this time. I haven't had a chance to read the full article until now. Just got home from a hugely busy day at the restaurant. I'll let you know if it's a known path. Cliff

COVID-19
Alabama's Coach Saban has tested positive. He will not coach the Iron Bowl between Alabama and Auburn, the biggest game of our year here in the State. Never in my wildest imagination could this happen. Just imagine if Tom Brady wasn't the QB for the patriots, that sets the bar. Oh wait, he's in Tampa.

Help! SU carbs...(of course) idle is at 1800 can't bring it down....
I think you should find a good rebuild able set, buy the kit from ztherapy.com that comes with the DVD for general instructions. I love videos but the only way for me was the hands on approach. You clean them as you go, make sure and keep the parts separate to the front and rear, wipe them down with this stuff and you'll be happy. BTW, how deep have you already gone with the EFI? That's something to consider in my opinion. That's why I have a set of SUs mounted on the wall in my garage. I replaced my whole EFI system before I bought a 240 and fell in love with the carbs. I'm sure you seen this but I'll post it again.

Inexpensive Garage Lights From LED Strips
We use the LED "tape"? around cooler doors at the restaurant. Looks great too. Easy to apply.

I've quit worrying. My state is red one day and green the next. The testing yo-yos too much for me. I wonder how stringent the testing is in Alaska. Alabama, none.

Wow! That was a pita. I'm using my phone and forgot to lower the pics mb's. Anyhow I will get whatever you need tomorrow. I have to cook dinner then beat the dog. Cliff- Subfloor mounting method?

NippI'ma do a photo dump for now starting from the rear. This car is in a cocoon and of course the battery was dead so I had to get down in there. I can answer questions when this K4 kicks in. The 3 hinges are riveted on the foward peice and phillips head screws on the rear section. Those tool bins are not accessible on my raised deck 280 like my 240. You can see them under the board but I had to unscrew the cargo straps to lift the board to photograph them. There's a long piece of chrome trim that holds the carpet down above those bins.- Subfloor mounting method?
I'll get you loaded down with pics when I get home. About an hour?- COVID-19
Okay @Zed Head this is blatant sarcasm. No brains required. It's pretty funny. https://www.tmz.com/videos/2020-11-21-112120-brian-williams-4888195/- Subfloor mounting method?
I can add to your Hoover file. I remember the thread from @grantf in 2011. Here's his pictures that might help the OP. There's actually 3 hinges but a long piano hinge would also work. Any how here they are.- HELP!! 72 240Z + 280ZX CR TRANSMISSION + 88VLSD DIF = DRIVE SHAFT?
About half way down they talk about driveshafts and where to get one. https://www.datsunzgarage.us/borg/ Powertrain Industries Eh, that doesn't come up on mine. Too old I guess?- Subfloor mounting method?

Mine did that after I rebuilt the motor and put everything back together. I got the linkage flats beside the carbs in the wrong order. Shot up to 3K at start up. Here's a picture you can double check yours to. Good luck.- 1973 Rebuild

I used a black pvc glue on my console and was very happy with my results. I cannot say for sure for your problem but many have used the same. You have to stay on it as far as the texture and finish. I was happy with my work when finished. Hopefully you can get the same results.- 355-Mile 1976 Datsun 280Z Up for Auction on BaT!
I agree 100%. I just hope we can stay somewhat informed on this remarkable car. I don't know if Nissan has an American museum but this one deserves a spot for sure. - Subfloor mounting method?
