Online Z Car registry

[MikeW]

Many of you have already noticed that I started an online Z car registry using a public spreadsheet called EditGrid. It can be found here:

The good news is that anyone can add or update this list at any time. The bad news is that anyone can update this list at any time. I just had to roll it back to an older revision; it looks like someone might have tried to sort the list and it didn't work properly. I knew there was a problem because my VIN no longer was right; it had shifted in the list. I just added instructions at the top to help prevent that problem in the future.

I apologize for any inconvenience this will cause; some recent entries may be lost. Those who have already entered data may want to verify that it is still correct. All previous revisions should be available so it's always possible to view old data.

Thanks Mike! It will be interesting to see if anyone has a VIN consecutive with anyone else once more members enter their information.

BTW - you planning to go to the Z-club show on the 25th?

Yes, that will be interesting to me as well.

I don't think I'll make it, at least not with my car. I'll be on vacation until the 24th and won't have time to prepare.

Mike - You can always prepare before you go on vacation :classic: You definately need to come, hope to see you there!

Mike, do you want just our cars, or would you like us to post cars that we know of (i.e. parted out cars/shells, etc.), assuming we have a good amount of info?

[MikeW]

I say the more the better. The only question would be how to differentiate such cars. I suppose for now just use "reported by zbane" for the "Member" field. We could always create a separate sheet for them in the future.

Ok,

I reported my deceased parts car

[zbane]

I added a couple cars that I know of that should be considered DOA or Parts cars, including the city located, in the comment/misc area. This might help people search for parts in their area.

I added my 280 to the list

Mike, In the future when a separate sheet is made for parts cars and such, it would be nice to include a column for engines. I have a few spares and I'm sure many others do also. It would be interesting to see if a matching engine turns up for someone's car. Just a thought.

Done. I just added an extra tab called "Spare Engines" and columns for Block, Block Serial #, and Head, i.e.,

L24, 058003, E88

Any other columns you can think of?

On a side note, thanks to everyone who's entered data. Someone even managed to hide the first rows on the 240Z page. I'm not sure if that was intended so I undid it and "froze" them instead so that you'll always be able to see the instructions and column headers.
