You leave the car outdoors?

That's what I was thinking.......

I think the fact that you have to worry about the neighbors screwing with your stuff is more of an issue than the car living outside. My neighbors and I watch each others backs like hawks, if anything happens at the ranch while I'm not around my phone will be ringing off the preverbal hook. Likewise, if I see something strange going on in the hood, I put my boots on and go check it out. Must be in an apartment complex where everyone "minds their own business" a pity really.

I suspect other reasons for mentioning "roar of my Chevy 350 V8 I run with duel ('dual'?) Supertrapps" besides the concern about vandalism but...I'll be nice....

Muffle the thing better, and try to get on with neighbors.

My Z has only a 10 inch glass pack at the end of the 2 inch pipe that starts at the header, it is loud. But I drive with respect in populated areas. Perhaps respect is the key.

traveling man, if he dies not bite on that, let me know. Does it have that purdy cadmium finish on it? Mine is quite dull and ugly now.

PM me and I can take a pic of it and email it to you. Make sure this is the style that you want.

Wait , I'll add the next line .... shouldn't cost more than 3 dollars , and he'll do it right away......

I could do away with the '' gives a damn '' idea too - as a locksmith , I find that this trade gets

more goofballs stuck in the '70's phoning at ALL hours , lookin' for a deal to '' refresh the mechanisms ''

of my '70's locking gas caps or whatever . Please don't take it to an ''old time locksmith '' .

He'd rather not see or hear about it , trust me .

I have had to use locksmiths on more than one occassion. No offence to you but I had one that changed out my car lock tumblers to one key when the ignition, doors and hatch all were different. I figured if he could do that a gas cap would be a piece of cake. $3 that would be a deal but I suspect you would have to pay more.

Sounds like you only vaguely got the point..............

Great news for those who love locking gas caps: I have 10 plus caps brand new in the plastic with keys. I will sell them for $25 per cap plus a modest shipping cost. The shipping will be cheap because I will use an envelope. Fire me a PM if you want one. All I need is your address and you can send me a check or cash, if you perfer PayPal I will ask for $30 plus shipping. Paypal fees tick me off.

Cool! Could you post a pic of a cap for a 240? Thanks for all your suggestions.

And yes, unfortunately I must keep the Z outside. Wish I could keep them all inside for sure as the weather is taking its toll.

I'll buy one for 3 dollars, shipped to my door .

I live in a small hood w/ mostly good neighbors but a few bad apples. I just had my mailbox bashed a couple months ago for no good reason. I haven't knowingly ticked anyone off but feel I need to take precautions & do simple things to keep my cars safe.
