I provided some info a while back to Carl Beck concerning availability of original brand (Koito) headlamps which he believed may have been unavailable. I thought it may be useful to share here for anyone seeking complete originality for their car, concors events etc I recently purchased a pair of lights for my car from a well known West Australian motor parts company called Marlows, the lights were marketed under the Bosch brand but are actually Koito manufactured parts. The Bosch brand of products is huge in Europe and Oz so anyone wanting these should'nt have too much trouble. Hope this is of help to some people. Regards Lee

Ok, this is being carried over from another thread for those that might be interested. Some of us have been using it to make new avatars. The link is to a license plate maker program. It's pretty cool, check it out. License plate maker

Hello All, FIRST let me say this is a temporary fix until I can hibernate the Z in the garage to pull the tank and fix it right and do the return hoses as well, presently they are not leaking, but we all know it's a matter o' time. That being said, who has had luck with patching a tank with something like JB Weld? It appears that a small pebble has gotten between the strap and tank (I can't figure out how either) and yesterday when I filled it, I think the extra weight worked a small hole into the tank. I plan on removing the strap, and yes, with the tank supported as Kmack and EScanlon already know about... (Sorry guys...) Once while out on a hill climb in a '72 4…

When I was looking for my one and only back in 1991, I came across a '72 with 4,500 miles on it that the owner wanted $14.000 for. It was a beautiful orange car with white interior, original tires, etc. I could not afford it but looked at it closely, keeping my drool under control of course, just to see what an original looked like. I continued my search and came up with a nice yellow car with 86,000 miles on with very lttle rust. Cost me $3,000. I can't say that I have put in $11,000 into my car but several thousand at least. And I still have a mediocre car that is still a project. What do they say about hindsight-- it is 20/20. I should have jumped on that $14,0…

OK.. here's a dumb question from a non-American: what do you mean by 'Bay Area'? This world of our has a lot of coastline with a lot of concave portions (bays) and lots of those have cities on them. Do you mean San Francisco Bay? (I'm guessing but there seem to be lot of Californian members). Enlighten us...

I just got a 71 240 that has a nice paint job and i'm looking for a car cover. i don't have a garage yet, so i need an all weather one. i live near Sacramento, CA. Does anyone have any suggestions? Also, i could use some info on the bulky-ness of the covers on the market. Most websites just measure bulk in relative terms, and i'd like to know if i can pack an overnight bag and the car cover in the back of the z. thanks.
