Found an " elephant " oil cap today on the junkyard, pretty cool. Will put it on my on Z. Searched a few hours still not found the 5 speed driveshaft, with the slide piece. If anyone has a lead to one, let me know..

I think it is

looks cool in the pictures but that things indeed needs a complete restoration

This also works to get the nut off

impact is quick but it destroys the threads eventually.

lol really looks like there is a cap on it ( shiny part ), because the lower part has a different color. Just grab a vice try pulling it of. If you don't have a welder stop messing around and go to a proper tire shop like suggested here above

Isnt that a cap you can remove maybe and there is a torx bolt OR something under it?

The brake caliper finally got stuck, I made it loose, but 2 orginal rebuild ones where ordered. I will keep it as a spare, because they will be hard to find in the future.

Air Horn or something lol. I ripped it of throwed in the trash bin.

Starter failed this year. Had it rebuild by a local business who did a great job. Touched up the engine bay a bit also.

Really hard to say. Classics are now worth more in the US strangely. I think it has to do because of all the liberal green deal agenda stuff going on here for 2030. The might even ban driving classics here, who knows ? I hope not.

Spark plug wires are not original. Germany stamp on them. Maybe the distributorcap is.

Make sure to treat the hollow spaces. Rust seems to have taken that z alot

@CanTechZ. I dont know about the spark plug wires if they are oem. Could have been changed in all those years. Will have a look if I see some labels

Picked up the spare L24 today. Casting code 056069 Also for my Friends 67 chevelle project a rare corvette C2 427 high performance casting code GM 3904351 4 bolt main. We checked the head numbers these are from a later 427 but we can het the early high compression cast iron heads from the US that combo it would make stock 435 HP.

I can't tell exactly, never taken one apart, but it looks heavily corroded. Check the motor and gear.

Went back to that yunkyard today. Took some flashlights with us to do a proper search. Did not find the propshaft for the 5 speed yet but did found a low vin 240z complete engine with E88 head. Going to pick that up Offcourse... Not much L24 to be found here in europe. Also a Laurel L24 with E30 head I saw.

Bearings prob failed or something Fun thing in classics is you can take everything apart. Take the time to take it apart. It's an easy fix usually
