Challenger Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Just thought everyone would like to see this, If you need some RHD parts.

Stealth-Z Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 To bad it is on the East Coast. Almost looks like the twin to mine. But mine did not have anywhere near that much rust. Damn! I'm glad its there or it would probably be in my driveway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I just grabbed some parts from a guy who was parting out a 76 FairLady I picked up NOS: JDM front bumper, head light buckets, Fairlady badges. Also used horn pan, grill, turn signal assm, tail lights and a bunch of little things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 I thought about you Stealth when I saw it. I was pretty sure yours was RHD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the 76 have power windows to? Seems one can never have to much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth-Z Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I thought about you Stealth when I saw it. I was pretty sure yours was RHD. Interesting to note the 78 Fairlady Z's have full sized spare tire wells. They do not have the raised fiberboard floor pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Are they like the floors on US cars up till 76? Im going to put amps in the space between the floor and the fiberboard. Maybe Ill stash some other stuff in there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked under the fiberboard on my 78 coupe and the tool box spaces are there less the covers. What a waste of space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savageskaterkid Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Yeah no one bid! lol, I am trying to get him to part it out! You and me both, I just sent him a message. I'm looking in to a RHD conversion on mine, and I wouldn't mind the dash and steering rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also need the Clutch/brake pedal assembly, the bracket on the fire wall, The accelerator pedal, heater/AC blower motor housing, wiper motor assembly, cowl cover, turn signal/light switch assembly, cover pieces for steering column, wireing harness, and the battery tray. Those are parts I know for sure are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you really need this stuff, I can give the guy a call that a bought my parts from. He still has most of the car left. He is right in NC and I thought about you when I drove down there to meet him. I got off in your town to get gas and thought of your old thread talking about people working on your car. I might be able to purchase a 76 Fairlady come this spring that has been sitting for 19 years! So I am just buying the hard to find stuff when I can.

savageskaterkid Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I don't have any room for a parts car either, if not I wouldn't mind picking up a fairlady. But my parents have problems with one Z, that isn't a parts car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Looking at the car I'm assuming the intrest is ONLY in the fact that it is RHD for parts? The rest of it looks like a pile of ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
