If you can verify the 76 or 74 are the same (aside from the year of course), which I'm not sure they are, AND you can get me one to work from I can reproduce these for you. Not sure if that's much help, but it's an option if you can't find one elsewhere.
Just reproduced the spark plug decal for my build:

There was someone here recently who was looking for the emissions decal, as he couldn't pass smog without it.
Those are well within the scope of what I'm looking to provide, but I will need one to work from. If another year is same in every other aspect I can make it the year he needs easily enough.

I'm starting to reproduce some of the factory decals that are NLA and not available as reproductions already. First up is the valve cover's spark plug decal. Not what I would consider concours quality (finish and print thickness is slightly off), but good for my restomod.
Testing one under the hood of my daily driver to verify my suppliers materials are up to the task, after which I plan on offering these and others to the Datsun community.
Currently asking what other decals are people looking for that aren't already being reproduced? I'd like to also offer 'modernized' versions of factory decals to suit the restomod crowd (think carburetor decals with tripples, paint code decals with YOUR custom paint code, etc.).
Currently I'm offering one free replica for anyone who provides a usable factory decal to work off. These don't have to be perfect, but legible and intact enough to provide a good basis for redrawing it digitally to exact scale. I also must have enough interest in any particular decal to cover the production cost. This is actually the cheap part considering I'm essentially doing the design work for free.
Currently looking for:
Tire inflator decal
Glove box cards/decals
Air filter decals -
I'm hoping someone contacted law enforcement, and provided a location and VIN? Easy enough to track down the owner if it was reported stolen. Looks like it hasn't been stripped much, so probably not a total loss.

random question but does anyone know if this could find its way onto a 240z with a vintage air kit? currently just have my idle higher in the summer then lower it in winter but would love a better solution to this...
Shouldn't be too difficult to add this bracket to the carb linkage arm, and then mount the FIA.
...But where would you pull vacuum?

Couldn't find a way to attach photos to a PM, so here will have to work.
I'll pack up the clean(er) one for you and get that quote tomorrow.
...If anybody needs the second one, let me know.

I've got 1 or 2 in the spare parts bins. Shoot me a PM with your address and I'll get you shipped price.

Phar, you've got a PM.

What are ya looking to do? I might be able to help.
This. Sounds like you've got something specific in mind that you didn't mention in your first post. Kind of hard to help if we don't know what you're after...

Dapper lighting seems to be the gold standard.

+1 for Riley on Facebook.
Datsun Parts and Needs (DPAN) is a great group for sourcing parts, be it used, NOS, aftermarket, etc...

S30kid. He's on HybridZ, but doesn't seem terribly active. He's got a VQ in his Z now, but you might PM here or on Instagram to see if he has any observations to share from his time with the L.

Majority of members of HybridZ are going to be in the US, but NZ seems to have a good supply of LD motors/parts on TradeMe.
I've actually bought parts from NZ that I had no luck finding in the states...

Might have one on the spare engine, I'll check it's condition tomorrow.

Looking for a good cam core to send to rebello for re-grind. Must be in fairly decent shape with not too much pitting.
I've got a spare L28 that I can crack open for you this weekend. Should be in good shape, was running a few months ago.
-
Not sure if he still has it, but I forwarded your contact info to a guy who had one for sale locally. Good luck with the search.

Many oil filters have a bypass built in. Not all, so determining whether yours does or not falls to you.
The factory L28et oil cooler has a bypass built in. I believe the block bypass is plugged in these applications, but I'm not absolutely sure. Perhaps this is what you have?
-
Received mine as well. Thanks brother!

I would try to adapt 280z seat belt covers along with some butyl tape and vapor barrier sheet (the stuff inside modern car doors)?

Both, both is good.

I've got a 2011 Subaru STi. It is superior to the Z in almost every measurable way. It can haul a fair amount of junk, two kids fit comfortably in the back it's reliable, out handles the Z, is faster both in acceleration and top speed, it has air conditioning and zero fume issues.
Guess which car I'd rather drive? Guess which one the kids always want to be driven around in?
It may not be driven around much, but I look at the Z every day and wouldn't want to see the garage without it.

All that is currently required for registration is the safety inspection and even that will be getting phased out next year.
I've got straight through setup on my Z and a cat delete + cutout on my STi. Ive never had any issues getting them inspected.
Z will eventually be getting an L28ET with a cutout shooting through the fender. I doubt I'll have issues even with that.
-
I might have one for you.
I gave it to a friend who was planning an r200 conversion, but he decided to use a Subaru R180. I'll see if he has any plans for it. It has been modified with an outlet for an oil cooler and two bungs for sensors (gauge and pump switch). Not sure if this is overkill for your application.
