Any Texas Z Club members on here?

I just got a 1972 240Z that AI am prepping for the road. All original and 103k miles. Maybe I need to get my brother that does puters for the military and is a puter nut to build a Z site for old Z's and builders. Or my son! He went to work for Microsoft and designed websites for the University of Texas main site and frat sites for extra cash. I am sure there are nice guys in that group. But my Z has a small dent here, faded paint(will buff out I hope), old school slots and I just got it. I HATE when someone in a newer car whether Chevy, Ford, or Mopar get snotty. I am a Chevy guy true and thru but took a venture though Ford because I wanted to do something different. This is my FIRST import non family car that I CHOSE to own and cruise. Kinda stoked about it at 45yrs old is cool to mess with something that has alot of cool factor, is old, and not alot of on the street.

I am SURE I have the only 240Z in this area that is a daily. I never see them.

... Maybe I need to ... build a Z site for old Z's and builders. ....

As opposed to using THIS site, which has been around for over a decade and is the #1 spot on the internet for information on the Z and is by many standards the best source of information for the Z's and probably has all the information you are thinking to include in your future site ....

And don't forget the other excellent builder sites out there...Hybrid Z, Z-Driver and others.

So, go ahead, invent the wheel again ....

Just my 2¢

Talking about for guys in areas of Texas to get togather. Good Lord relax, wasn't talking about another site like this or anything bad about this one. I have major sites I go to, but I have small local ones I go to for my local car shows, meet and greets, or to BBQ at a buddies house and invite a bunch of car guys over.

I was in NO way implying that I was going to build a be all know all Z site.

No worries, I was just referring to what your message implied, that this site did not have what you were looking for.

Look in the Forums under Regional and post all sorts of stuff for your local clubs etc., many guys use those to post local get togethers.

I'm not saying to NOT build a different site, just that this site offers so much that to try to replicate or match it IS a lot of work, hence my comment on re-inventing the wheel.

But even in building a local club members only website, it still involves a lot of time, money and work.
