  1. Very carefully. If you miss you'll have cracks on the front of the dash as well as the top.?
  2. So a '77 shell weighs 530lbs or there about. Nice to know that information but now do you happen to know a '72 shell? That'd be my two cars weight and I'd like to know except I couldn't do what you're doing! Amazing work Mr Knot.
  3. There's a multi-colored baseball bat on letgo for $35 that would be cool looking. Probably get a bunch of shift knobs out of it? https://gb.letgo.com/en/i/rawlings-multi-colored-baseball-bat_7c62a427-ff6c-47ae-83cd-c3180a35b7f2
  4. Being helpful also, I always do a quick google search for questions or images I'm needing answers for. Just remember to always put "classiczcars.com" at the end of you inquiry. https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-americamovil-us-revc&source=android-home&source=hp&ei=Oj14XNKTMuiOggeV2KGoBw&q=heat+and+cooling+hoses+240z+classiczcars.com&oq=&gs_l=mobile-gws-wiz-hp.1.0.41l5.0.0..4775...0.0..0.0.0.......0...........5.4xnS33twXto
  5. You might as well replace the seals 'while you're at it" Big thanks to @Chickenman for the p/ns. Read a bit further, Chickenman posted in another thread the only part still available from nissan was the seal below. I remember now, seems like i used a 10mm deep socket to push it down.
  6. My '72 was leaky so I went with a '78 radiator with a ZX full shroud. Runs nice and cool.
  7. Could this one be that early?
  8. O'Reilly's has low pressure fuel hose pretty cheap. That's who had the 5/8" for the top 180 vent hose I used.
  9. Bottomless bagless Hoover
  10. I took them to Mr Krafts spa and had them professionally blown.
  11. Try https://www.searchtempest.com It does all craigslist for you.
  12. Blew the dust off both cars! 75 degrees out today and sunny. WhupWhup Whuuuuuu! Back on my Z fix. Relapsed damn it.
  13. You're a nut Phillip! My belly laugh for the day, thanks.
  14. Strongly agree with Ferg! A good ZX motor will be great in whichnever you chose.
  15. Sale the Nikki and add an electric pump to your mechanical one. @Jarvo2 has a good write up on this. I hope to do mine soon.
  16. The remans are hit and miss from what I've read. Mine works perfect from amazon.com for a '79 ZX with a Pertronix 1.5 ohm Flamethrower coil. About 3 years now? There's a cool spreadsheet someone made that's on my laptop and of course I'm using my phone. Google "distributor excel spreadsheet classiczcars.com". Good luck.
  17. The on top looks OE to me. Here's mine that's definitely OE.
  18. https://okaloosa.craigslist.org/cto/d/valparaiso-1972-datsun-240z/6823452145.html North West Florida https://tricities.craigslist.org/cto/d/auburn-datsun-parts-cars/6801484973.html Georgia somewhere? https://cincinnati.craigslist.org/pts/d/cincinnati-1978-datsun-280z-parts/6805485322.html Ohio!!!
  19. https://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/d/huntsville-1971-datsun-240z/6821783188.html $12,500
  20. If this is what you are speaking of, from what I remember. Fast woman found one on ebay for a diesel, "sam the dieselman"
  21. My experiences with the straight 6 L motors, the 2.8 is easier and cheaper to rebuild. A 2.4 will be harder to get parts for and you'll pay higher prices. My $.02 after building both within a couple of years of each other.
  22. Someone closer will get it. People can hardly sale cylinder heads because of shipping. I'd get if I were nearby. Good luck.

    That was my first thought.

    It's an alternate spelling. Baulky/ balky, refusing to go. I've always heard about horses and cows being balky. Maybe a girl or two. Here you go... balk·y Dictionary result for balky /ˈbôkē/ adjective US adjective: baulky reluctant; uncooperative. "he was trying to get his balky horse to move"
  25. I got chill bumps when he came up on that bike to his left before going into a right turn. That guy is the best, most courteous driver I've ever seen. I only heard that car sputter one time on a long straight. I think he floated the valves!
