Congrats! What did you end up buying?

Have you found one? I keep meaning to check if I have a spare you can have but keep forgetting. Setting a reminder for tomorrow right now!

I don't get people. You're trying to charge a premium price for something and you get your two year old to take the photos.

This is what it looks like this morning. That red Mazda has been sacrificed...

But you drive it in the rain Pete.

Let's not kid ourselves. The forecast is for up to 80mm of rain. Stay in bed where it's warm and safe. Keen to reschedule ASAP.

As per above, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Datsun-240z-Right-hand-door-glass-/121999304488?fits=Model%3A240+Z&hash=item1c67b9a728:g:o2oAAOSwUfNXSRhC Says he will not post but maybe someone in Adelaide can pick up and post for you.

Is that installed? I got quoted around $400 at about the same time.

First strip starts 19 cm in from the edge and each one is 3 cm apart.

Hey, I can't help but just wanted to congratulate you and welcome you. Enjoy the resto! Pics are welcome too.

Here's my 240Z ones for reference.

Had a reminder pop up on my calendar about the opening. Looking forward to visiting soon!

Did they use that dating format on other parts Alan? The letter followed by year and then day? I would question why they needed to put a day on a part. Seems inefficient and totally unnecessary but who knows what kind of systems they had in place and if those systems required days to be used.

No, I meant try to make sense of why the front harness is dated July 1970 and the body one is dated July 1969. Just like the transition of early parts to later, there really is no sense to it and no point in trying to explain what happened over 45 years ago.

You'll be waiting a while Gav! haha Actually, I might test some wires just out of curiousity. Being all new wires though I expect no issues. If anything, there might be length problems due to either mistakes by them or routing mistakes by me.

That's a question best answered by Paul but it looks like they can source most terminals except a few, like the tail light bulb housings, that are required from your old harness.

There's also this on the body harness. Try and make sense of that...

They're not the fastest for turnaround but to be fair it is partly my fault for telling them I wasn't in a hurry... I sent my harnesses in to Vintage Wiring in August of 2014. The price quoted at the time was $700 for making a new harness and retaining some components where necessary. Almost two years later, and after many calls being told it would be ready in two weeks, it was returned to me. The price changed to $1,000 which I wasn't pleased with, especially considering the slow service, but grudgingly accepted after Paul explained the work involved. There were also delays in obtaining schematics. I have no qualms paying a fair price for professional service and after receiving the new harnesses I feel the money is well spent. The quality of the harnesses is exceptional (based on visual inspection only). The wires are all tagged and a document is provided with clear instructions which will be invaluable when it comes time to install them. For anyone considering using them, I'm told the price will be much higher than the $1,000 for all three harnesses. I don't recall what his current quote is but if I had to guess it's around $700 per harness. Best to speak with Paul. Below are some photos showing the old harnesses, new ones, tags, new connectors and reconditioned components.

I sent my harnesses in to Vintage Wiring almost two years ago. They were returned this week and the wait and price was worth it. Hopefully it won't take me two years to install them but I wouldn't be surprised based on the progress of this build. Below are some photos showing the old harnesses, new ones, tags, new connectors and reconditioned components.

Welcome aboard Chris. Let me be the first to ask for pics!

Mine came in last week. Handles aren't my favourite but the tips are good. Tested on some bike carbies and the fit between these and normal Phillips is night and day.

I'll get on it ASAP. Just had a wisdom tooth extracted a couple of hours ago so feeling a bit rough at the moment.

Yes. I missed out on it initially but whoever was buying it pulled out. Nice piece of glass and I'm a sucker for that vertical demister look.

Adam (Brown Hornet) imported one and it arrived safe and functional.

All subjective but I like your current wheels and would take them over the other options.
