May 19, 201410 yr comment_448128 Great photo!The front plate looks like it is from Japan "2177" so it must be very early. Hard to tell month of year from vegetation.

May 19, 201410 yr comment_448129 Here's another picture of Mr.K This is when Mr K was a young man. Look at the 510 wagon with whitewall tires. My dad's 510 4 dr sedan had those bias ply tires. They really sucked. I think he got 10,000 out of them or something. Horrible tires. Sears Roadhandlers by Michelin went on after.....world of difference.

May 20, 201410 yr Author comment_448196 I'm going to miss you, Kats! Oh frustration! I think you should enter your PS30 in the stock class and expect to win a gold medallion. The judges can't take any points off for non-stock items because they have never seen a PS30 and don't have clue what is stock original and what is not!

May 20, 201410 yr Author comment_448205 No, sorry, I'm not going to make it - again. Sounds like you are going to have a great convention though. The left-coast conventions are great fun.

I wished I could see you there, too bad.About the replica yellow car, I was at the Las Vegas convention with my blue 240Z and the yellow car was also brought from Japan in June 2000.The yellow car was built by an journalist of the magazine and many people helped at the shop "Ultimate" where my blue 240Z was built too.My car was built by the owner Tetsu. Both cars were there almost at same time and so busy to be built not to miss the Nissan cargo ship to LA departed in Apr.Kats Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/48172-mr-ks-yellow-240z/?&page=3#findComment-448231 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to hurry up if I change the ones too.Kats Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/48172-mr-ks-yellow-240z/?&page=3#findComment-448232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
