clean them and polish them and sell them. they are worth at least $150 for the set.

They look just like mine, mine are original to the car, I got them from the dealer back in 1976. They are Appliance wheels, the centers are no longer available, you can get the Eagle centers and lugs from a place called Masseys in Ok (405) 239-2010).Mine are 14 x 6.The tires are Goodrich TA as you can see and are 205-70-14's.

Original owner, 34 years on February 8th. Car was repainted in the summer of 1983. Car now has head light covers, everything else is the same.

Here is my car, hope to see the green ones represented.

Go here "Exterior & Int. Color List 240-Z /280Z" from http://zhome.com Looks like first one non black interior is in 1972 with red.

Mine is Green, to be exact 302 Green Leaf Metallic, seems to be one of the least popular and rear original color. I have never seen another one in person.

I have some here:http://photographictrends.com/zcar/closeup/index.htm Look more than half way down.

My latest fooling around with photoshop.

Here are two pictures of the piece installed on my car. Inside the red circle. They do let the RPM drop more slowly down to around 2k from what ever.

I would check the outer race on the outer front wheel bearings. I had one go bad, slop and it caused me to have a shimmy starting at 35 mph. The z dealer many years ago missed it and replaced the whole strut and that did not work. I finally found it by accident when checking the bearings.

I live in the south hills of Pittsburgh.

Not too many like a green car, but here is mine it's 302 metallic green, original color. This was taken at the Cleveland Z car show this past September. It was the only one of this color. I like the color because I chose it and I have never seen one like it.

It's a shame that an original owner car like that gets wrecked, I hope he gets well soon and I hope he fixes it up. Because being a original owner of a car that old is special and he can registers it on my original owner 280Z site. We have 6 cars registered so far. http://michaelgoodweddings.com/datsun/index.html
