oldmates260z Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Well I have a nice set of leather covers fitted to a set of seats from a 1976 2+2 and then went to fit them to my 1975 2+2.....darn but they are different. Now am in need of a set rails or even whole seats if they are still attached....in Brisbane would be nice. The ones I have in my photo are the wrong ones Quote
zeds4ever Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 G'day mate, found these among'st my spare parts. They used to be in my 2+2 don't know what year tho. Yours for pstge cost plus a donation to the site. Regards:Alan. Quote
gilltech Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Those look rather different to my 260 2-seater - mine just have the vertical projecting bolts (with the plastic spacers) without those formed feet. I didn't realize the 2+2 seats are different, not to mention the floor frame. Quote
oldmates260z Posted August 16, 2015 Author Posted August 16, 2015 Thanks Alan, could you just post a photo of them first so I can check they are the same. The early ones (1975) have the rail bent down on both ends (bolt on a sloped section) and the 1976 have the front sloped and the rear flat. Quote
oldmates260z Posted August 16, 2015 Author Posted August 16, 2015 Darn again, thanks Alan but they are the same as the ones I have So still looking if you anyone has some Quote
zeds4ever Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 G'day mate, the rear section that the bolt passes thru has a rivet that secures it to the seat rail.Think that if you ground/drilled the rivet out enabling replacement with front units which I can grind/drill out for you from the seat rails I have. You can either weld or bolt ,or if you know some place that can re-rivet it for you if you wish to retain originality. If you want to go this way or as a temporary measure until you get the ones you desire I'm happy to help you out. Cost will be $25 donation to web site. Regards: Alan. Quote
oldmates260z Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 Thanks again Alan, would rather keep it all original and wait until I find the correct rails. I still have my RX8 seats in the car....cheers Quote
zeds4ever Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 No prob's mate, just a thought. Regards:Alan. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted August 26, 2015 Administrators Posted August 26, 2015 What do they look like? The ones you need? Quote
oldmates260z Posted August 27, 2015 Author Posted August 27, 2015 Sadly I do not have any to take a photo of and as much as I look around the net I cannot find any photos of my type. I can say the photo that Alan put above are the wrong ones They need a turned down bolt on section on both ends instead of one turned down and the other mounting on the top face of the rail on the floor...clear Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted August 27, 2015 Administrators Posted August 27, 2015 I was mainly asking so I could keep an eye out and let you know when my spidey sense was tingling haha. oldmates260z 1 Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted September 2, 2015 Administrators Posted September 2, 2015 Looks like Ben might have your required seat rails? http://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/13920-fs-240z-and-260z-parts-job-lot/ Quote
oldmates260z Posted September 2, 2015 Author Posted September 2, 2015 I did zoom in on the photos to check, was awaiting for someone to buy the lot so I could make an offer. Now I see he is splitting it so all good. Thanks Gav Quote
