Never loan a guy a starter.......

[Obewon]

A good friend at work has a son that bought a 80 280ZX for $800. He drove it for a week and then it wouldn't start. My buddy chased the problem down to the starter. Being the nice guy that I am, I loaned him a starter off a 78 and one from a 79. The 79 Z starter worked and fix his problem. His son drove it for two more weeks. During this time, he let me test drive the car. The car has a lot of rust but the engine, with a 5 speed, ran strong. It also had some really nice chrome wheels. Several days later the car had electrical problems and wouldn't start again. He left it parked and bought another junker. So, the son offered me the car. The good news is, I got my starter back. However, the rest of the car was attached to it. Hauled it off for $300. I really need to stop this. Five various Zs, four engines and five trannies. can you say "intervention"?

No, interventions are for people with dangerous addictions. There is nothing wrong with the addiction we all share to the Z car.

Would you please post some more photos-I am curious about the rear louvre.

Thanks, and Congratulations on the newest member of the family!
