  1. I am removing the dash on my 1976 280z.  In the instructions I've read online, it says to disconnect the metal cables from the heater control.  One was obvious, I used a Philips screwdriver to loosen a screw and the rod slid out.  There are other rods and cables that aren't so obvious to me.  The end of the rod has an S bend and I can't get it out.  There is more than one.  Am I going about this wrong?

     

    Does the control mechanism come out with the dash?

  2. I am breaking down both doors on my 1976 280z as I prepare for media blasting.  The first part was this small roller connected to a bracket that was slid inside the outer stainless door trim.  There was only one on the passenger door, none on the driver's door:

    The other thing I was wondering about is these pieces that were on the outside corners of the doors.  I'm sure at one point they were pliable rubber, but now they are rock hard:

    Any help identifying these parts is appreciated.

     

    Thanks

  3. Hey guys,

    I am currently fitting up a Xenon urethane 3124 type 1 air dam on my 1976 280z.  When I have the air dam clamped in place, the outer edges of the dam are slightly past the fenders (see picture).  It's the same on both sides.  Is this normal and what do people do to correct this?

    Have you thought about keeping it and swapping it into your 280z?  LSD is lots of fun coming out of corners.

    I would have considered it, but I swapped in a Ford super 8.8 instead
