I spoke to the owner last week, there is a problem with Google. Give them a call tomorrow. (They have 3 240Zs in the shop right now!) Their facbook page (https://www.facebook.com/texasretrosports/?eid=ARDxbiUNJ7CmAvESqCnPKjm5tiz6fa6gcbQrJLtMsZaviUMD4MxeDesDIUCZ6ugGhICE2qJoXW8ZK4Bx&timeline_context_item_type=intro_card_work&timeline_context_item_source=100000172742483&fref=tag) has my 1970 240Z on the first photo and my blue 1966 520 down the page.

You should consider the paint work first. Prepping the car for paint should uncover any prior body damage. At that time, you can assess whether the car is worthy of your investment of time and money. If you decide the car is worth the investment, complete the paint work then move on to the interior. Are you planning to change the exterior color? If so, then a thorough repaint requires doors, hood, hatch and engine removal. Good luck (and add photos to your postings to let us know how the project progresses). Keith

Logical explanation! Thanks, Keith

I am interested in creating the clear vinyl seat protectors for the later model seats. Per my research, the Type 2 seat was used for the post-1971 240Z, 260Z, and 280Z. I have attached a photo of the protectors that I believe are appropriate for the 1972 240Z. According to the parts manual, the reclining bracket part numbers 86470-E8800 (left) 87470-E8800 (right) - outboard and 87480-N4500 (left) and 86480-N4500 (right) - inboard were used for post-1971 240Z thru June 1976. I need confirmation what location(s) the seat protectors show below are configured to fit. Thanks for your help. Keith
