What is that, an ashtray?

Well, that's the best picture I've seen yet. It looks more like a figure 8 to me. I

The pictures are fantastic on this listing. As one of the commenters posted "I can zoom right in" and see the detail. One of the things I've only seen once before is the clip holding the two choke cables together: Anyone else have one on their car?

This is the first I've heard of these "s30world" door seals. I too have the Precision one's now. Looks like this is the way to go!

I did something similar on mine a few months ago but with a blow torch: Heat till red hot around the manifold, cool the threads a little with pb blaster, little pressure on the threads with wrench. Repeat for about two hours until all were loose. It caught fire several times, but I did this outside surrounded by snow.

Rarely do I see old z-cars in Idaho. let alone during snow. This was east of CdA on I90.

This one particular thread is what keeps me coming back almost daily. It's not the only reason I visit this site, but it is my favorite thread.

Nice find Siteunseen! I see '240 in OZ' even posted a picture of a full set of hooks. I'll have to save that one.

I've just started thinking about these as I near closer to completion of my old z. They weren't on when i bought the car in'93, but as I pour over pictures of original early z's, it appears they all still have them in place. Follow up question: Are the rear hooks the same dimensions as the front passenger one?

I think we are also missing one of the comments by the seller that was flagged as "not constructive". That missing comment might have something to do with the reply by craZee "i knew this auction was going to be weird when the seller wrote that he “raised the reserve”. Uh no. You don’t have that option." My guess is that he changed his mind about the 25k reserve.

This beautiful, nicely preserved, later model 1971z went 'reserve not met' @ $98,000 back in 2022. Well, it's back. $25,000 on day one. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-240z-295/#comments-anchor I'm wondering what BaT allowed the reserve to be this time? I cant imagine they'd let this happen twice.

I had another look at the photo's. Guess I missed those the first time through. Upon closer inspection, I also noticed the poor fitment of the rear quarter patch panel. The paint job and interior look pretty decent though.

Lack of comments/bids on this '73 is deafening: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1973-datsun-240z-253/
