But you have two Z's  ::)

 

Yes two S30z's ;), but the 72 doesn't need 1. It appears that only the very first

Yeah and the worst part is that it's not actually a bad price when you consider what each of those items in the auction would sell for individually.....

 

I've seen that rear license plate globe holder go for $600-$700 au on it's own... Crazy.

really? thats the only thing im missing to do my 240z light conversion now........  a costly exercise even with repro lights.......let the bill continue to grow then........ knew the licence plat light was hard to find but not that hard! hang on....are you talking about the center piece or the light/housing itself?

No that is in km/h, 1970-73 AU delivered 240z's were all in MPH.

 

The Japanese market had KM/H from the start I believe so it could be an early S30z Japanese Market speedo. Hard to confirm without a photo of the rear of it.

Thanks Gav, something did seem strange about 20KPH start. It being an early Jap spec item makes sense.

Wonder how it came to be in Aus ?.

Am I missing something here? Wouldn't it just be a 260Z speedo from an Australian delivered car?

Hi Ian

 

Our speedos, with the exception of the very early cars, start at 0 KPH this one starts at 20KPH

Yes two S30z's ;), but the 72 doesn't need 1. It appears that only the very first < HS30 00100's got these covers. So technically #150 doesn't need 1 either. I do like them though.

 

Number 160 had a 2400cc rocker cover in my tenanture of it.
