[240z heater core and fan box restoration]

Lucky. Thanks. 🙂

[why all the hate on sunroof's?]

Old post. But I am the new guy so oh well.

 

The sunroofs I have seen they seem to upset the lines on the roof. If you could have one that is flush and followed the natural curvature of the roof, then no problem.  I guess I can like them either way but my #1 preference, is no sunroof. 🙂

Ok. I would like a 4.11 R180 differential

Oh I just meant lower gears in the R180. 🙂

Is there any place that restores the fan box and heater core for a reasonable amount?  

 

Thanks,

Hello, old add, but I’ll so anyway...... does the clock work? How about the amp gauge?

I just ordered the JATCO shift kit from Tim in Australia.  Thinking some lower gears in the rear may compliment that. Comments?

Great idea! Thanks 🙂

Well, some owner before this last one, took apart some of the dash.  grrrrr!  lost the glove box door and the clock....gee thanks!

 

Looks like I will take the dash out to restore it and clean things up.  restore the ventilation system...up in the air over keeping this 1972 aftermarket A/C  comments?

 

So, not much, but I am glad to have gotten one while I still can!  I have a box full of stuff, like the radio face plate, horn button, etc.

Ok, so I bought it on eBay.  1972 Datsun 240Z Automatic.  White with red interior.

 

I paid more than I wanted to, but sometimes to get the one that you really want, that happens.

 

Original paint, no accidents, just a tad bit of rust.  Oh, and the interior is faded.  I can't decide to keep it red or go black.  I am afraid the vinyl paint will make it looks cheap and cheesy...too glossy, comments?

 

First order of business is tossing the sunroof and filling it in.  I will discuss my plans for that shortly

 

Anyhow, I will post the eBay pics of it, and hopefully the transporter will get it to me unscathed!

Hello all.

 

My name is Joe.  I live in Colorado Sprigns, Colorado.

 

I grew up on Datsun's.  My brothers had Roadsters and 510's, my Dad had a Roadster in addition to a '76 280Z 2+2 he bought new.  It ended up being mine for 7 years before he got it back, restored it, and kept it for many years before a family friend got it.

 

I sold my modified 1972 510 2-door.  I worked on about 25 years ago.  I screwed up more than I fixed....young and had to learn how to do things.

 

So, I just bought a 1972 240Z Automatic on eBay.  It is enroute to me.

 

I am also a big Mustang fan.  I have a 2001 Mustang GT I bought new that is a garage queen.  It is Supercharged and etc.  Real nice car.  This is my "classic" to keep with it.

 

If I can be of any help I will.  I appreciate in advance any help any of you can provide.

 

Thanks and God bless you.

 

Joe
