  1. You can use an aerial from a 280Z, they fit nicely and are still a Nissan item. Cost around US$220.00 landed, readily available. See image attached.

    I agree, Hemco is the place to go. Ph. no. is 03 5334 1213. Lokk at there www.hemco.com.au first as you need to research a few things before you order. Stalk length, mounting point angle etc.
  3. Photo's of the NOS horns that arrived from Japan the other day, these were the last set in stock at the Nissan warehouse.
  4. Thanks Gav, I have sent Alan an email re: glass. The problem with the UK RHD mirror is they are slightly different to what we had in OZ (99% sure), do you have a parts catalog you can refer too? Mine is at home.
  5. This post is to gav240z. I am only new to the forum and cannot figure out how to reply individually to messages when a few posts come through. Anyway, I to have been looking for a RHD mirror for 3 years with a number of contacts and received unanimous confirmation form Japan that they are NLA. I have tried using a LHD mirror on the right and it looks odd. I will let you know the outcome from a new plater in Queanbeyan that says he can fix the pitting on old mirrors and re-chrome them. The only problem with this is that you must smash the original glass to separate the mirror, no glaziers I can find can then put a mirror back in to retain the factory look. Any glaziers out there want to have go??
  6. Thanks for the positive feedback. I have to admit the parking issue has already crossed my mind. I am happy to buy any decent 2nd hand glass but this is also hard to find. I have already had my glass polished and is very poor, can you recommend anyone who is good. The guy I used was the man who started polishing in Oz back in the 70's.
  7. I ment to say 2+2.....
  8. Do you have a coupe or 2+2 as I do have a new filler for a @+@ I do not need.
  9. Thanks for the positive comments, it is hard to know if you are achieving a good result. Re-plating is definitely an option, if you're sick like me, you get the new parts and then have them re-plated so all the zinc finish on the car matches.... You may also need to have a few parts redone to get the best result. Cheers.
  10. Over the past 4 years of the resto I have established a lot of good contacts around the world, I have a standing list of parts with all of them and they notify me when parts appear. Just received from Japan a brand new pair of horns. I have used almost all NOS parts in the resto which is why the glass is important. I will ask my contacts if they can source more fuel fillers. Cheers
  11. Thanks Loui, Keep me posted. Cheers.
  12. Hello, I am looking for glass to finish off a full resto on my '73 z. I have tried many options but have come up with nothing. Does anyone have or know anyone who would have NOS or perfect second hand glass (front screen glass is covered)??? This would finish off a perfect example of a 240z, I have not registered the car yet as I am hoping for glass before I install the new door trims. PLEASE HELP...... I will be posting images in the resto pages soon, I have attached a few so you can see the detail I have gone to and why the glass is so important. Cheers.
