I still haven't found my next Z resto project but while snooping around on craigslist, I found this old "vintage" hand wringer. I'd been looking for one of these for years and couldn't pass this one up despite it's rusted/nasty condition. (plus the $8 price was too good to pass! ;))

My dad had one for years while I was growing up and I remembered how great it was to wring out the chamois and towels after washing the family cars/boats.

So. after a run thru the bead blast cabinet and a little paint, here's the before and after pics.

Hi Moonpup,

You could buy my 78 280! Its the white one in the classified section. I'd love to sell it to someone who would restore it. Dallas isn't That far from Albuquerque!

CHeers, Chris

Thanks Chris, but it's the 240Z that has my heart and soul!

Those things are fun.

I remember when I had one with a 5 HP lawnmower hooked up to it.

That wringer was so cool.

It would ring just about anything.

Then one day ouch.

:eek: Your kidding,.... right.....? ? ? ?

Ya was just kidding. ROFL

Those wringers are the coolest to have around, if I still lived in Houston I would only head over to Mikes to wash the car.

PS looks great Mike
