240jetjoc Posted June 9, 2006 Share #1 Posted June 9, 2006 This is my first post since becoming a member, but I have spent countless hours reading and learning from all of your posts. Thank you. Tara and I live just west of Portland in Hillsboro, and we're both members of NorthWest Z car club. We courted in a highly modified 1972 240Z over 29 years ago, and we're still hooked on Z's. Tara wants a 1995-96, very low mileage, Z32 convertible with tilt steering to add to our Z stable. We currently own three 1971 240's. Two of them are series 1's, and the other is a series 2 parts car. One is undergoing a modified restoration - a few custom bodywork touches, F54 with triple Webers, mn47 head by Paul Ruschman, historic Electramotive cam, T5, R200, CenterForce II clutch, turbo driveline and half shafts, poly bushings, etc., etc. Another will be a winter project and will remain mostly stock.Best wishes to all of you. Are there any other Oregonians out there? Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwcubsman Posted June 9, 2006 Share #2 Posted June 9, 2006 Roger,Welcome to the club. I am anxious to see your 240s. Are you going to Canby this weekend? Please say hello. Was at the ferry cruise, were you? Best regards from Gresham,Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beandip Posted June 9, 2006 Share #3 Posted June 9, 2006 jetjoc , Welcome to the club . Since you already have the Z virus there is no point in warning you. Sounds like you have a handle on Zs but if there is any way we can be of help give us a shout. I was on the ferry boat cruse , were you ? Canby bound on Sunday .

240jetjoc Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share #4 Posted June 9, 2006 nwcubsman and beandip -Hi guys and thanks for the welcome. Yup, I was on the ferry cruise riding shotgun in Rich Ekers yellow 1973. He was the fellow taking video of the cruise. Rich let me ride with him since none of our Z's are running at the moment. I'll see you both in Canby - I'll be there bright and early.Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted June 9, 2006 Share #5 Posted June 9, 2006 I look forward to bumping into you at Canby as well, Roger. My Series 1 '71 lives with me here in Springfield.Actually, there's quite a few Oregonians here, and a few from across the river in Vancouver too.
