March 28, 200718 yr comment_203850 Good news Andy, Fingers crossed that you're right about the minimal rust. I sometimes think that rust in a Zed was a factory addition. Post some pics ASP mate, we'd all love to see your latest love affair.

April 3, 200718 yr comment_204668 Not a bad first zed to cut your teeth and by the looks of it, you could have plenty of nights ahead tinkering and tweaking. Whip that carpet out and have a good look at the pans and get a torch under the front and rear guards and look hard.Please sort that handbrake adjustment out first. It's not a WRC rally car.Interesting that this 73 comes with the slot for the hand throttle lever (next to the choke lever). Are 73's all like this or has it had a console transplant?Love those wheels, I want them!!!

April 3, 200718 yr comment_204670 That center console doesn't look like a 73 console. I might be wrong, but I haven't seen any with that type console. If you don't mind me asking, what was the purchase price. It is the same year as my Zed and seems to be in near the same condition. Nice car, your gonna have a lot of "fun" for the next few months... I know I did. I learned a lot of new things. Looks like you live in So-Cal, maybe you can take her to the West coast Nationals... If you decide to take her tell me so that I don't feel so bad about taking mine too!
