John Greenslade Posted October 18, 2001 Share Posted October 18, 2001 I am restoring a 1970 240z. It was restored professionally in 1987 and when I started project was horrified to see that the Professional restoration shop had merely masked the floor board damage rather than repair. Also frame rails had some badly welded section but nothing had been done to arrest continued rusting. I now have installed new floor boards from Rust Doctors in New Jersey and am in the process of installing frame rails (again from rust doctors) once completed I have a rear fender and inner wheel well to replace - got perfect match with new USA steel from Tabco in Ohio - cost including shipping from Ohio to Vancouver canada -CDN$175 - great deal. I recently downloaded a schematic from Peter Paraska of the frame dimensions of a 1973 240Z. They were very helpful in determining reference points form datsun on the front rails and related components however in measuring my 1970 I believe the dimensions are slightly different. Does anyone have a comparable frame schematic for a 1970 240Z. John G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
