Well, I'm now the proud owner of a 1974 Datsun 260Z.  It's in pretty
darn good shape overall and I'm dreading my wife's impending decree
that I must be rid of either it or the Roadster.  I bought it under the
guise that its rims will fit my Roadster (which is true).

It has six hole MOMO rims.  I haven't seen them before, not that
they're anything special, but they're different than my stock Roadster
hubcaps.

Anywhoo, you can see a picture of it at
<http://www.ofoto.com/I.jsp?m=34716549103&n=902800546>  (it needs new
paint, which you can't tell in the picture, but the body is pretty
nice)

I need to find a few odds & ends, not the least of which is how a few
hoses need to be routed.  It has 240z style SU carbs (dome top, not
flat top) and the water passage through the intake manifold is just
sitting, disconnected, as is one water connection on the passenger side
(where it goes into the heater core in the passenger compartment).

Also, I believe it should have a smog pump (the manual shows a picture
and there's a mount for it above the AC compressor) but I can't find
any plugged holes in the head!  Where did it all go?  Does someone have
pictures of a "correct" 260z?  Anyone familiar with the car, in/near
Sacramento, wanna come by and take a look at it/help me out?
