MSA (MotorSport Auto) or Black Dragon often (not always) offer the squeegees and cat's whiskers for the 240Z.

On our Homepage, scroll down the left margin and click on those links. They have on-line catalogues which change from time to time, depending on what they have in stock at the moment.

BD is usually far more expensive than MSA.

The original optional exhaust for the American Z cars was the ANSA twin pipes with dual glasspacks. They are no longer made for the old Z cars (ANSA never actually made them ~ they were sub-contracted to a southern California firm which as since gone out of business).

The closest you can get to them today is the MSA Twice Pipes. However, the original ANSAs were 1.5" ID and the MSAs are 1.7"ID. They sound a bit deeper/louder than the ANSAs did back in the day, but there are so few Z nuts left alive, they don't recall accurately.

MIDAS muffler still has mandrels which will bend stainless steel down to 1.5"ID, and they offered to fabricate a pair of pipes for me if I could find an old set of ANSAs, which I couldn't. MIDAS estimated $1,000 for the job ~ abt twice what MSA Twice Pipes cost.

I'll look thru my junk and zee if I have any window squeegees you can have.
