I recorded just the segment that contains Ron's interview and car. It's about 1:40 in length. Now if I just knew how to convert it to something that can be posted here. I'll work on it in the morning if no one beats me to it.

The show will air again at 7:30am this morning (Oct. 30) and on Nov. 4 at 5:30am. That's PST.

Super job on the interview and on the car!!!

I caught the last of the interview, it was only 1:40 long? Guess I didn't miss much wish it was longer.

Missed it. Someone Youtube it.

Dennis, the guy that handles my website copied the segment and is going to put it up on my website.

I will let you know when it is up. As always they cut stuff out of the interview. But all in all, I was happy with what they put together. They used a bunch of photos from Ben Yount (V12Horse) from this forum and a couple of photos of mine with Pete Brock and my car.

Ron,

Watched the show last night and have to say.......you were marvelous! I think this small segment with you and the historic Z have done alot to bring our favorite Z cars to the attention of other car crazy folks! It's about time too. My quess is, that down the road....say maybe 10 years, the Z cars will become even more desirable and valued in the collector arena. Anyway, hat's off to Ron Carter!!!

I have most of the interview up on my webiste click on the photo of my Z at the top of the page. It take a few minutes to load, but is a good quality video.

Hey Guys!

Thanks for your kind words! it was an honor to be interviewed for the show, I hope I represented the Z community well.

The only thing I wish that they had kept in the interview that was not included was what I had said about PDK Fabrication and all the work they put into the car.

Ron, I enjoyed the Car Crazy program featuring your car. You did great job on the BRE/Morton Z Car. I too have a John Morton story, although it is not as exciting as yours. In 2004 the ZONC (Z Owners of Northern California) had their annual show at the Blackhawk Museum in Danville, CA. John Morton was the featured and special guest. He entertained us with stories of his career. As part of his participation, he was asked to select one car from the one-hundred or so that were on display and honor that car as his "Best Pick" award. He selected my original/unrestored '73 240Z. It was an honor to have him select the car and to have the award presented by him. He said he selected the car because it is so rare to find a stock Z Car, and to find one in such nice condition. He is a first-class guy. There are photos of the event on the ZONC site and in the photo gallery of this board. You must be quite proud (and rightfully so) to have your car featured on a national program. Maybe it will result in more interest in these cars. Take care - John

For the short amount of time alloted you gave an excellent portrayal of your car and the story behind it! I think it leaves the viewer wanting more. Congrats on a job well done!
