If you would have asked this question last year, it would have been a lot longer.....

But here is the short of it:

1 - New tires (ordered, but not received yet)

2 - finish polishing '82 ZX 6-spoke wheels (for new tires)

3 - install new carpet set (ordered but not received)

4 - buy & install new stereo & speakers

5 - buy & install full dash cap

6 - refresh & install orig. engine & trans

7 - color sand and buff paint job (working on a glass like finish)

8 - take the car out on the track at least twice

9 - get the wife off my back for still having not finished the car

That last one is going to be the toughest of all. She's had almost 9 years of practice yelling at me about the car. It's almost a habit now.

[Victor Laury]

1. Headers and an exaust system that has a touch more volume.

2. More engine compartment detailing including heater hoses, all new gromets (especially the nasty wiper gromet!), even more replated hardware.

3. Replace the poorly installed 1/2 dashcap with a full cap or go all out and take my spare dash to JustDashes for the real thing.

4. Euro front and rear bumpers

[mar2c]

my To Do list for the Z -

1) get the Z out of California. my Uncle Sam should grant me this wish by the end of August.

2) redo the interior carpeting

3) fix the door locks so I can lock/unlock with the key !

4) steam clean the engine compartment. i'm curious to see what it looks like without all the dirt, grime and oil everywhere.

5) new exhaust system

There will be more, but this is what comes to mind for now.

[sjcurtis]

my list is short for this year

1. Move my Z cars home from Brisbane to Newcastle by 10 Jan 03 with minium loss or damage on the cars and parts.

3. make a car cover (read carport) for the 71

4. Meet as many Z enthusiasts as I can in Newcastle /Sydney area.

5. Get to Towoomba for the National Z meet at Easter.

as you can see just a short list but it starts heavy.
