Do you want original style vinyl or leather? Keith

All, The breather grommet changed during 240z production. Caption is model (not production) year. Keith

I was on a similar search for the brake cable boot for my Datsun 520. My solution was a a bicycle cable boot. I recommend you expand your search to include bike and motorcycle components. Let us know your success and failures. Keith

Chase, Great solution. Please provide a link to muffler supplier. Thanks, Keith

Per the ad: https://dallas.craigslist.org/ndf/pts/d/dallas-1975-datsun-280-original-factory/7327618765.html 1975 Datsun 280 Z Original Factory Seats and seat belts from the 8,000 original mile car we built on the show and featured at SEMA offered by Gas Monkey Garage. This is a VERY Rare set of Original Factory OEM Seats and the correct date coded seat belts from the 1975 Datsun 280Z we built on the show and was displayed at SEMA in 2018. They are in near flawless condition ( there is one very small area on the drivers seat back, see all pics) we used a set of JDM seats in the build and these have been collecting dust on the shelf. If you are looking at this ad, you know how rare they are in this condition (see all pics). Sold as a set only for $995.00 OBO, this means if you only want 1 seat, the price is $995.00 OBO and I’ll give you the other one for free! “Badass Ain’t Cheap & Cheap Ain’t Badass”! located here at the shop where they can be picked up M-F 9-6 by appointment only, just message me to set up a time to come by, please do not just show up without an appointment, there may not be anyone to help you if you do. $995.00 OBO CASH ONLY! Keith

All, 1) Is the hook and loop (Velcro) sewn to the front (and rear???) carpet or is the stick on type of hook and loop? 2) Which part of the Velcro, the hook (rough side) or the loop (smooth side) is sewn to the carpet? The other side would be glued to the metal floor.) Thanks, Keith

Dennis, I prefer not to offer any negative comments in the setting of a public forum. (Unfortunately, my experience has had it's ups and downs, due greatly to suppliers of products.) I only extended an offer to personally share recent experiences with you. However, if you prefer a sanitized summary of my experience I can document that here. Keith

I am always ready to share the details of my recent conversations with Distinctive Industries, Seatz Manufacturing (Bryan), Motorsport Industries/The Z Store (Greg) and Classic Datsun Motorsports (Les). Keith

I have vast....I mean VAST experience with trying to recover 240Z seats... PM me with your phone number and I'll call you to share my challenges and successes! Keith

Since it is 520 Day the 240Z wanted a photo with his garage mate. Keith

Here is the closest material I have found: http://trf.zeni.net/webcatalog/specials9.35/38.php?s_wt=1133&s_ht=906 Unfortunately, it is light beige/cream natural color. I have found a supplier of natural dyes (https://www.jacquardproducts.com/procion-mx), who previously indicated he was too busy to take on the project of formulating a brown dye to match the original color. Hopefully, in the next few months I’ll have a quote of the pricing for the project. Keith

Esprist, Your website shows a set (https://jdm-car-parts.com/collections/interior-trim-nissan-datsun-fairlady-z-240z-260z-280z-280zx/products/datsun-240z-1969-1971-seat-cover-set?variant=1045889564). 1) Are these Distinctive Industries or Seatz manufactued set? 2) Can you provide a link to the "exact matching ones from Japan for a cost of $450 a set"? Thanks, Keith

Vent variations

Went out to the garage to look at the 240Z... Said a small prayer to offer thanks that friends and family are healthy... Said "Good Riddance" to 2020... Went back in the house to to greet 2021 with renewed energy!!!!

Contacted MSA/ZStore to inquire about an upholstery kit for delivery in 2021. Keith

Has anyone purchased and installed the ZStore/MSA Vinyl Seat Kit OEM Style Upholstery Restoration Kits (https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/CTGY/classic08f01) during 2020? If so, what is your opinion on the similarity of the vinyl grain pattern to the original vinyl that Nissan used? Thanks, Keith
