I am restoring a 71' 240 at the moment. My car has had a pretty good smack to the front end at some point in its life. To save a lot of time and effort at the body shop I am wanting to hunt down a donor car for the front end work. I have found various options that hopefully will work. I have located several 260's i can get my hands on to chop up. My question is would any of the S30's work for the body parts in this picture? I do not know if there were major differences between the years with the main shell of the cars.

I dismantled my distributor in hopes of cleaning it up and getting it ready to go back on my shiny rebuilt engine. I probably went further than I should have and removed the points plate. I found only 1 governor spring on the weights below the plate?? Is this correct. I didnt find any broken springs in the housing. The car seemed to be running fine before the tear down. Any diagrams I have found all show 2 springs. Also think I will just order another points plate since I may have screwed this one up taking it apart. Going back with the Petronix Ignition.

Thanks Patcon, I’ll keep my fingers crossed.

Also thanks to all of you for the information. This was my first post on this site and i appreciate everyone jumping in with the advice....Now does anyone know how to get teenage daughters to act right??

I am the buyer. Blue Loctite for the bolt loosening? I’ll get my other one fixed if the smart money is on that....I don’t care to do either but I did buy that bar.

I think I’ll pull the trigger on it. I’ll let everyone know later if it all goes south!

Does anyone who knows more than me (which would be most) see anything wrong with this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/240z-oil-cam-spray-bar/283790259940?hash=item421337b6e4:g:0ccAAOSwcABeA7Cz My original is a little bent as I have seen in older posts. I could fix it I guess but would go this route in a heartbeat.
