Another update - starting painting the car! some minor imperfectsions and will need to cut/buff but looks great right now. minor orange peel but for my first time doing a whole car im happy. Still need to paint the front fenders, doors and front valance.

- SOLD -

I highly doubt that website is legit people have bought from them and receive product

Looks like shipping for a ~45x ~45 box for a rear fender and hatch would be over $500. probably not worth shipping from arizona.

im parting out a 1973 240z, the passenger side rear quarter panel and hatch is in good condition. depending on location for shipping ill let it go for cheap. I'm in Gilbert Arizona

i went with BC coil overs and the control arms are from Apex Engineered. I kept the original crossmembers as I had some that were already restored. If i decide to put a non L series motor in i may swap that out.

I havent posted here in a bit, here are my updates, almost ready to paint. Did some updates, mods, etc.

Hello, I do have the tail lights themselves but sold the trim panels already. sorry.

F54 blocks that came with the P90 head came with dished pistons to lower compression. F54 blocks that came with the P79 head came with flat top pistons. if you try to turbo the flat top piston blocks you can only run low PSI, or blow up the motor.

Thanks but i would be looking for a turbo'd F54 block. I think ill stick with the N42 and maybe try to find a P90 head.

I have a recently running N42 with an N47 head. I might try to see if i can remove the exhaust liners, not 100% sure on that. If i find the funds i might try to source a P90 head if i can find a good deal on one. But long term i think im going to set up this engine as NA and start piecing it together to add a turbo.

after more research i am seeing the N42's came with dished pistons. for some reason i kept finding info about them having flat top.

I've been doing research about L28 and L28ET pistons to turbo my build. Possibly buying an F54 vs keeping my N42 block. Can someone identify if these pistons are considered flat top or dished. I'm assuming flat top because I have 3 N42 blocks and ALL 3 have these pistons which have an obvious bevel. However when I research flattop vs dished I only see similar pistons as dished from the turbo engine and completely flat pistons for non Turboed engines.

bump Still looking for fender mirrors for a 240z. please let me know if anyone has.

I have a full set of glass minus windshield of racing plexiglass for a 240z. I dont have any images but i will get them soon. Not sure of pricing but i will do some research. this was for a project car someone was working on in the late 90s/2000s and never completed.

Well i do have the original seat belts but i am restoring the car so they are in one of many boxes of parts. im not keeping the 240 all orginal so im not worried about keeping it as factory. One of my main concerns is structureal issues where i mount all this so thats why i ask. I'll need to see what i can do.

I am thinking about cutting a whole into the side rail to fit the mechanism from the 280z belt system. I'll also need to bolt the top mechanism to the strut pillar somewhere.

I am looking for options on what to do with my series 1 240z. i dont want to keep manual seatbelts. I have a set of automatic seatbelts from a 1977 280z i was planning on using but i just realized this 240z does not have the recessed cubby for the large bottom mechanism to be out of the way... Has anyone figured out how to still used these in a 240z or an aftermarket alternitive?

Hello, I am using the dash itself but i do have the wiring harness available.

Looking for Fender mirrors for a 240z. I dont want the cheap $50 ones i can get from Zcardepot and other places. I see them on ebay but i feel like they are way overprices. Located in Gilbert AZ

Thats a good question. im not sure. i can take a look. i know there are a few trim pieces in boxes that i dont know what they are used for. it could be them. I'll let you know.

I found the headlight housings, see photos. they look in okay shape. i can clean them up a little.
