What's in YOUR garage?

[240kconvertible]

A side story as well - When Les called to tell me the car was for sale - and told me he'd put me in touch with the owner - I turned to my wife and said; " hey honey, do you have any cash?".. She said; "what for?"... I replied that Les had found the BRE Baja Z, and if I wanted it I needed to send a cashiers check to California the next day. She said; " yes, sure.. just tell me who to have it made out to and for now much, I'll stop by the bank in the morning":love:.

I still haven't given her cash backROFL.... so around here we refer to it as Vicki's Z.

Your wife is Awesome, does she have any sisters you could ship over to Australia?

Wow - great story, and a seriously great piece of automotive history. Your story gives me hope that I may one day have a "crown jewel" piece!

Much luck with it!

Great story Carl!!! And killer collection you have there. I love the design of your garage with doors on both sides. Think I may steal that idea when I build my next house

Currently there's a CSP311 and a Z31 2+2 Turbo. Hoping to get the Z31 done and back on the road in the next couple of weeks so I can get an S30 or C110 in its place.

Not quite a garage, but, near enough..

Finally took 3 days to sell off a bunch of wood working tools (huge drill press, Grizzly table saw, Ryobi router table and a B&D Radial arm saw) Cleaned everything up and built a few shelves, tossed a bunch of crap, gave away my 300ZX B/W T-5 tranny and 79' ZX 5-speed and a few other things and found enough room to slide the 260Z in the garage, FINALLY!!

There's just no way in Hell that I'm leaving the 70' outside this winter when I start working on the 74'. I'll pull the 70 out on nice days when I got body work on the 260Z but other than that, it'll sit in a corner.

As you can tell from the pictures, Anything that can fit on the wall is shelved, nailed and bolted to the wall and out of the way. Parts on one side and tools on the other. It's cramped but it works.

My garage construction project began in earnest last fall, continued with the electrical this past winter, and ended with interior / exterior trim etc. this summer. Finally got vehicles in late this summer. Pic 1 - '71 Z with '91 Miata in background. Pic 2 - '96 Nissan Pickup. Pic 3 - far right = '78 911SC (and 16' kayak dangling above :eek:).

Well, after spending all it's time in the garage, the 240 got moved to driveway, for the next week. I sold my X1/9 this past summer, for a "big" Fiat. Currently my Fiat 850 spyder and a new addition, a 1989 Ferrari 328. So that is what bumped the z outside. The Fiat goes to the warehouse next week, and the z goes back in the garage with the 328.

Daily drivers, 04 Grand Cherokee and 90 Cherokee remain out in the snow and weather all year, until I can build a shop behind the house.

By the way, after having the Ferrari for a bit, it has made me appreciate my 240z even more. I really thought I would start to lose interest, not true. I thought I would sell it, but I hope I don't have to.

Folks, keep those 240z's, they are very impressive sports car. If you don't have one yet......GET ONE NOW.

Enjoy,

RG

Daily drivers stay outside (why bother driving in and out of the garage everyday!?!)
