240Z: NOS splash panels / Mud guards arrived

I stumbled across some cool parts once again. This time in Germany (online, since borders are closed due to the COVID crisis). Luckily the parcel-services still work international 🙂
This time i found a set of NOS splash panels / Mud guards, for a nice price from a guy who knew my project. He got the panels with his car when he bought his personal Z from a Nissan-dealer a few years ago, but didn’t need them.

First i thought that i didn’t need those, but after looking for the original items from my car, i realized (and remembered) that those were completely missing on my car. I guess since they’re not really important for the car, and probably prone to rust at an area so exposed to water and salt, they’re something that people just used to remove when rusty back then. So i’m really glad i found a set of those.

Just another missing piece in the puzzle. And finding old treasures of NOS is just part of the whole fun of restoring an old car, i guess 🙂
