Finally drove it!!!

[Weasel73240Z]

Well, I finally got all my stuff straightened out and, drove the Z today. Only on my small cul-de-sac because I'm not registered yet. But at least I can feel why I've done all this work.

Thanks to everyone here for their help.

Great looking car Paul! I'm looking at getting those wheels for my car too. What size are they? BTW, did those unregistered Z cars in the warehouse ever pan out?

[Weasel73240Z]

The wheels are 14 x 7 Cragars. Not original equip. but they look right, and I couldn't pass up the price ($100 w/ 4 new tires!!).

The "warehouse cars" are a bit of a mystery right now. I snooped around the warehouse, but all the windows are blacked out, which really got me thinking the story is true. I've been told that the cars are actually registered for some auction this Summer. I'm still hoping to see them before that happens, but no luck yet. May be just another urban legend, but my old man confirmed that their are definitely cars in there, he knew the owner before he died. My dad didn't know if there were any Z cars in there, but there are cars....

Thanks for the compliments on the car, it was to actually get behind the wheel after 6 months of staring at it in my garage.

I hate you. It's going to be at least three weeks, if not more, before mine is road ready.

Actually, congrats! That's what it's all about!
