Whenever I do body work on a panel that has holes in it to accommodate the pins on the back of the emblems, I usually cover over then with body filler. Often times these holes are a starting point for rust. I usually cut the pins off the back of the badge and attach them to the body using 3M autobody trim tape. With the holes covered and the pins removed it's hard to determine the exact location of the badge. Attached is a template I made for proper location of the emblems on the rear hatch . You can print it off, cut it out, place it on the right rear corner of the hatch and mark the exact location of the badges. The dots on the template are the exact location of where the pins were on the badge. These were for the rear hatch on my 73 240Z, not sure if it's the same on other model years 240Z hatch badges.pdf -
Hey guys. I know I haven't been on a awhile but its because I have been busy restoring my Z. I finally got all my body work and painting done but I've ran into a problem. I cant find any 10th anniversary wreath decals for my car. I was hoping some of you guys knew where i can find some, or if i can get a good picture of them with the dimensions. I think i could find someone that could make me some if i could just get a good picture and the dimensions. i will post pictures soon of the whole restore process. Thanks in advance. -
I am having body work and a complete repaint done in my 1970 240z. I have purchased all new trim, weatherstripping and emblems. However, the emblems (which are all from Nissan) are all plastic, but the originals are metal. Will I decrease the value of my restoration by putting these plastic replacement emblems on the car? The original emblems are not damaged, but are missing some paint and the chrome is faded. Any thoughts? Keith
