Here's a scan from my 1970 240Z owners manual describing tach operation. I really like the part about normal driving being "in" the yellow sector (6500 to 7000 rpm). As for driving with the tach in the red zone, what would you call "unless otherwise really necessary"???

Another surviving GT2000. I guess I have always been a bit of a collector. I got this one for Christmas in the late '60s when I was 8 or 9. I think the movie came out in 1967.

The only thing that my daily driver and my Z have in common is that they are both orange and Japanese, oh yea and they both get a lot of looks. I just had my '88 Suzuki Samurai painted 350Z orange a couple of weeks ago. Here are a couple of pics of both at a local show n shine last weekend.

I also should have bought spares of common interior parts. My best score was buying a new set of four first year 'D' logo hubcaps for the outrageous price of $35.00 each. Definitely should have bought more. They are still in almost mint condition today.

My '70 Series I also reads: " NISSAN 2400 OHC "

Series 1 240z's did have one key for the ignition & one for the doors & hatch. I am still looking for reasonably priced key blanks as well.

The spare in my 7/70 is what I believe to be an original OEM. It is a Bridgestone and is in similar condition with same tread as 7T1240 and it is a 175-SR14. There is small number "K7001" would that be the date code?

Sounds good, and good luck with the repair. Regards Mike

Good idea. ddezso are you willing to give up (sell) your old switch parts if they will make mine work? if yes I will post pics showing what's wrong with mine.

I am also in need of the early unlit defroster switch for my 7'70. I was able to disassemble my switch but found that the small black pin on the underside of the rocker was broken off, so I don't thick it is fixable.

My 7'70 has similar items to Doug N's '72. Passenger side: jack, two orange (non folding) tire blocks. Driver's side: black toolkit containing lug wrench and the two red bars used to operate the jack. Pics attached.
