Z Car Airplane Hangar Tech Day

[thebluez]

Sunday, June 26th at 10am.

Hey everyone...

Chris and Paul Shakalis are generously donating space for a Z Car Tech Day

at their airplane hangar at Republic airport. How cool is that?

They can accomodate roughly 10 cars in the hangar itself, and then maybe 10 more outside of the hangar.

There is more than ample parking for any others in the regular lots and on the street. If you want to work on your car in the hangar, you must reserve a time spot so we can give everyone a chance.

Email me at void@interzonestudios.com to reserve a time slot.

They have cool tools but we suggest bringing and using your own tools as

much as possible. Please be aware that we will be working around precision

tools and aircraft. Everyone is expected to be respectful of the property in

the hangar. We want everyone to have a fun time while making certain everything is left like it was before we arrived.

We'll be barbecuing and it'll be a BYOB & F situation but I'll make sure we have enough plates, cups, napkins, bibs, charcoal, lighter fluid,

emergency contacts, crash helmets and firehoses.

Figure we'll finish up around 5-6pm or so.

Finally, we'll talk about the next meet in June possibly at Alley Pond Park

and hopefully plan some caravans up to the National Z Convention in Syracuse.

It'll be great to have a rough headcount prior to the event so we can more

finely tune the plans so let us know if you plan to make it.

Anyone can feel free to call me if they get lost,

need more info or have any questions, thoughts, ideas...etc.

Location: Shakalis Aviation: Hangar 8 at Republic Airport, enter off of rte. 109 (between rte 110 and Southern State Parkway) and we will post signs directing you to the hangar.

PS There are also plans to organize an event (possibly a parts swap meet?)

with some upstate NY folks perhaps somewhere around the Wassaic, Hyde Park or Kingston area in the near future.

I have research old archives for an answer, but came up empty.

Does anyone know the shade of black used on factory early metal fan shrouds? The radiator is gloss black, but is the shroud matt, semi, or gloss black? 26th-Z, if you see this, you may have an answer, as your research is always pretty accurate. I am going for as close to 100% original as possible on a series 1 that I bought new, but without a shroud. Thanks in advance for your thoughts on this.

Not sure I understand. You want "as close to 100% original as possible on a series 1", yet you add a shroud that was never, ever available on a Series 1.

PS, Also, This subject would be better suited to a different forum than REGIONAL FORUMS > USA: Eastern in a thread about a completely different subject. Perhaps HELP ME!, or Open Discussion, or one in the 240z, 260z, 280z sections would be more suitable?
