Welcome to the club. Your profile indicates that you've got an early 240Z. Feel free to tell us all about and and upload some pictures to your gallery.

Thanks Mike ! I will upload pictures when I figure it out.

Former member Steve sold me the car, and I bought it Robin Leach style

not wanting to "build" a car from parts off ebay!

He must have invested over $30,000 Canadian in the tastefully modified

restoration. After driving this midlife crisis for a few sunny weekends,

I know now what a rare few enjoy! That being said, this car #00538

is for sale. I feel like a pimp :disappoin The car will be properly advertised in the spring, unless someone wants it for a Christmas present for their spouse :laugh: . Original motor goes with it.

Hey there Unkle!

[Unkle]

Hi ! I see your sig- wow twins! And early! What do you do about the exaust smell coming in the cab? If my fan isn't on, our eyes will water and clothes smell like we've

been at Indy!

[Bambikiller240]

Been discussed a lot. try a search on "fumes". There are several causes and solutions.

G'Day there Unkle, and welcome to the club.

Well, ........there ya go.

You asked your first question and received an immediate answer from Carl. That's what this club is all about mate, mutual interest, co-operation and advice from those more knowledgeable.

Welcome and ENJOY.

Rick.

I avoid the fumes by not driving the cars!

But seriously, the back end has to be sealed. If you are smelling fumes, its not sealed. Fuel line vents, tail light gaskets, deck vents and deck lid gaskets are all suspect. This is a common problem and takes quite the effort to resolve.

[Unkle]

Thanks ! All seals are new, but I'll check the deck lid grommets.

Question - after reading some banter about the first shipment

of series 1 cars to North America, do we know for sure which

were the serial numbers ? Wait, it gets better! From what Carl B.

writes, about 537 zcars were pruduced in '69, which includes that

first shipment of 500 cars. My car's vin is # 538. Did it ''miss the

boat'' , or make it? I'm not including the right hand drive cars in

this case. Question 2 - were any shipped to Canada, and if so

when? Not including those 2 ''test'' cars I've seen in pictures.

Thanks for any info, the more the better! Cheers.
