Datsun260z Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Hi all- looking for a 75 260z 2+2 owners manual to add that finishing touch to my interior ! Even if you have one (not for sale) would really appreciate if someone could post a pic. of what I am searching for as I have yet to see one. Thanks - hope I have better luck than I did with the last items I was hoping to find Quote

Datsun260z Posted August 8, 2015 Author Posted August 8, 2015 You need the the Workshop Manual the Owners Manual is same as coupe. Lynton Thanks Lynton-appreciate your help. So when a 2+2 was purchased new buyer would receive 2 seater owners manual(with no reference to 4 seat model)? Quote
Lynton Posted August 8, 2015 Posted August 8, 2015 Reference is made on certain pages only eg see attachment Lynton Quote
Datsun260z Posted August 8, 2015 Author Posted August 8, 2015 Once again Lynton-many thanks for your help Quote
gilltech Posted August 9, 2015 Posted August 9, 2015 I have one with my '74 2-seat, & the handbook covers both 2-seat & 2+2 versions. Same as the one in the image posted above. There's no 'year' date on it. Interestingly, it also covers both RHD and LHD versions. Whereas both the American market '73 240Z and '74 260Z handbooks I have - ex a USA supplier many years ago - are LHD specific, and the content differs in other respects too, & the year is denoted on the cover. So you'll want to track down a 'local' market handbook. Despite being kept in a dark glovebox for the 30+ yrs I've owned it the cover on mine has faded very badly, unlike the one in the image posted above. So you might have to keep your eyes doubly peeled to recognize one. Quote
Datsun260z Posted August 9, 2015 Author Posted August 9, 2015 and thankyou gilltech - let the hunt begin ! Quote

gilltech Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Datsun260z, my apologies, I was wrong in saying that there is no date given on my owners manual, after comparing it to another it is indeed there in a corner on the back, in my case so badly faded that it is barely discernible at all. States month & year. Whereas the American handbooks I have here, LHD for various markets, denote their respective year in large numerals on their front covers. Good hunting! Someone is bound to have one tucked away somewhere. Quote
Lynton Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Why don't you contact the Z Capital of Oz in Victoria the NDSOC see if a member there has a spare or even Lindsay Drife at the Z Factory Glen Iris Victoria, Lynton Quote
