Yep...definitely a fan of this period look. Works perfectly with light coloured cars.

I'm expressing interested in the '71 wheels, pending a final price.

Thread updated. Also after some OEM wheels if anyone has any.

Pm sent.

Mines copped a decent ding...I think its probably worth replacing.

Cool. Thanks for the help and tips.

I'm after the following bits and pieces for my newly purchased 240Z #1280. It's a matching number car and at this stage I want to keep it fairly original. My aim at this stage is to reunite it with some of its original componentry. Thought I'd post up here before I scrounge on ebay. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks to those that have helped so far. - original gear stick knob - original gas strut for tail gate - original wiper blades - OEM period style wheels (I need these for RWC...interested in anything period...jelly beans, hotwires or old school jap) Anything with RWC tyres as well. - 1971 240Z Owner's Manual - 240Z horn pad

Hey all, Just purchased a '71 240Z. It's pretty original. Has had a respray at some point in original white, original engine and gearbox. Has a bit of rust on the door, hideously cracked dash, missing a few bits and general wear and tear that you have to expect from a 45 year old car. I've been a big fan of the 240Z for a long time now. I recall childhood memories of my uncle's rust ridden red 240 Car was recently advertised on ebay so bit the bullet...and just did it. I've previously played around a bit with VW's, had a Polo GTI, then a Golf R32. My dad's into vintage/classic cars so I guess it's in the blood. The car is currently awaiting some tidying up and tuning prior to roadworthy. So I'll soon be posting a long list of WTB items. My plan at this stage is to keep it fairly original and just enjoy it as it is...hopefully improving as time and money permits.
