Hello everyone, 10 months later.... I have finished university finally and am now back in Auckland!!! Which means its finally time to crack the whip on the project and get it running by Christmas :lol: I've filled all the unnecessary holes in the firewall and repainted it.

240z dash boards are different to 260 or 280z dashboards. 3 guage cluster is slightly different, heater control panel is a different shape. A 260 or 280z dash will fit a 240z though you just need the matching centre console to what ever dash you go with and if you buy a 260 or 280z dash for a 240z y...
