  1. I'm a first time Z owner and getting this '73 240 soon.  It still needs a few things to complete the restoration, so I could use some help finding:  body scripts, hood emblem, rubber/plastic bumper trim pieces and bumper guard inserts.  

    I'm going to upgrade the sound starting from scratch so I'm looking to get smarter about that, too.  Fidelity at a level suitable for Deep Purple at 80 mph. would work.

    Looking forward to being on the forum.

      Useful information

       

      ·       Download a Factory Service Manual (FSM).  http://forums.hybridz.org/topic/48825-factory-manuals-some/?page=2&tab=comments#comment-1208329

      ·       Download electrical schematics for your car.  PDFs are easier to read than those found in books. Some are in color.

      ·       Buy the book How to Restore Your Datsun Z Car by Wick Humble. It will save you hours of searching for "how to" info.

      ·       Focus on searching Hybridz as 99% of questions have already been addressed.

      ·       Start bookmarking Z car parts suppliers - there are many!

      ·       For SU carbs, parts and instructions go to Ztherapy.  Buy the "Just SUs" video.

      ·       Remember these are 40 year old cars and will need restoration to be safe and drivable.

      ·       Join ClassicZCars.com website and search there as well.

      ·       Become well informed about modifications before asking questions. People will be more inclined to   answer informed questions.
