Who is the manufacturer / seller of the braided hoses you referenced above? Thanks, Keith

I just purchased some parts from UAE and Spain, pre-August 29 tariff effective date. Speedy delivery and low shipping costs via ebay. For obscure parts, identify a ebay seller based overseas who have extensive listings and ask if they have (or can locate) the parts. Keith

Does anyone recognize these Tow or Tie Down Hooks / Rings as being a Datsun part? Thanks, Keith

Terrapin Z, What was the process you used to "cleaned up the hazard switch"? Thanks, Keith

From my Jan 1970 240Z Keith

All, The mounted muffler appears to be silver. The unmounted muffler (photos 2 and 3 above) have a greenish tint. Any consensus on the correct color? Thanks, Keith

Bump Anyone have a comment? Keith

All, I have several NOS of this BMC: As you can see, it is missing the casting mark noted below: Can anyone identify the production period that my spare are applicable to? Thanks, Keith

Great! Any suggestion on how to duplicate the bolt head? Thanks, Keith

I am in the process of refurbishing a pair of original battery terminal cables. After removing the terminal clamp bolt on the negative cable, I noted that bolt (6.0 mm x 1.00 mm x 1-1/4") had a rounded “U” head to match the profile of the terminal clamp. As you can see from the attached photos, there is no indication that the bolt head was modified with added metal to reshape a square or hex head bolt to form the rounded edge. Has anyone else seen a terminal clamp bolt with this rounded “U” head? Thanks, Keith

Which of these reproduction hazard decals is more accurate? (Note, both their font and corner shape are different.). jdm-car-parts rendition: Zeddsaver rendition: Thanks, Keith

Does anyone have fastener specifications (size and grade)? Thanks, Keith
