   Here's one for all the sparypainters out there. I'm stripping my 240 back to bare metal. Should I prime it with etch primer (you know the brown/red primer, that seems to be what it was painted with origionally), or should I use the normal grey primer?

   I need to take off the decorative side moulding strips to paint the 240. How are they attached and are there preferred removal and reattachment techniques? Same question for the emblems. Thanks, Victor.

   I took my rear lens appart, and found that it was far from hi-end tech in there! No wonder it does not shine like the Christmas tree it should be. Only a dull semi-gloss reflecting surface and a lot of air… I will see if I can improve the beast, and I will let you know…

   Installing Air Dam... problems

   Not so much a problem, as a pain in the a$$ I've removed the front bumper on my 77. I'm now staring at the 2 strut-like apparatus' (apparati?). These are held by 3 bolts on a bracket. These are a COMPLETE bitc& to even begin to deal with. I can't tell whether the nuts (17mm) are welded to the brackets(?). I can't get these, or the 14mm bolts to friggin budge (I'm speaking of the ONE that I can even get a wrench on.) I'm half tempted to torch 'em off. Being a 77, I'm wondering: 1) Are these strut looking things readily available from MSA or VicBrit? 2) If it even matters, since 77's likely won't ever be THAT valuable as a collector. In the unlikely event that I …

    Hi people, I just joined this forum, this is my first post. I just bought a 73 240z last week to tinker with. I had a 78 280z when i was in highschool and regreted getting rid of it since. So I finally got around to getting another Z. My question is: I'm not sure if these are stock bumpers or not correctly installed or what, but i can't open the hood all the way. about half way up the hood hits the top peice of the bumper. It's like the bumper is to close. There is a pic below anyone know why this is? TIA Steve
