SammyBuca Posted August 12, 2011 Share #193 Posted August 12, 2011 Got my headlights back on after following the link to clean the carbonization off the combo switch, started the car to go to work this morning, died on the road in front of my house. Lots of cranking, either spark or fuel issues. I guess I'll have to wait to drive in the evenings.......sigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted August 14, 2011 Author Share #194 Posted August 14, 2011 Turned over 74k miles today. Drove 288 miles through the Oregon Cascades with two other Zs. Some great roads and great scenery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyO Posted August 14, 2011 Share #197 Posted August 14, 2011 Thanks, and yes, I am hating it but it was the right thing to do. It is not perfect but in the right hands I know it will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travel'n Man Posted August 15, 2011 Share #198 Posted August 15, 2011 Installed an air horn - great sound - much louder and more brilliant than the stock horns. I left them installed (just dewired).

240260280z Posted August 15, 2011 Share #200 Posted August 15, 2011 Drove up to Boston and spent the afternoon with Baddog. It is always a pleasure to see his Rebello powered G-Nose. (I think it is the perfect Z). This time it was at the Lars Anderson museum. There was a Japanese import show with lots of Datuns from the ZCCNE including modern GT-R's. My fav. oldie was a silver 1600 roadster. I met a few folks from the club then we crated up a dash bound for California. Got to see a 65 Ferrari 275 too!

Bonzi Lon Posted August 15, 2011 Share #201 Posted August 15, 2011 I took my 13 year old granddaughter for a ride around town. She really liked the little blue car, but 'no air conditioning?' Kids... The engine is very close to 10K miles in 3 years, after rebuild, then sat for 28 years. Runs like a 'Singer Sewing Machine', or would that be a 'Swiss Watch?'
