Anyway, about the Z. I am keeping receipts, taking photos, even recording videos of the progress of the rebuild. I think any buyer of a Z would, if I was honest about the rollback of the odometer, would understand why I did.

I agree completely.

Yeah, it went with Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman...

You gave me an idea! A movie starring an S30 (or two!) where guys dressed in straight-leg jeans and button-front shirts drive around the country looking for virtuous things to do while saving girls and being rewarded with a cold beer, electric guitars and cool Rock music. They always foil the attempts of politically-correct morons, get the trophy for road racing, and always drive off into the afternoon-sun. Like a cross between a "Herbie" movie, James Bond, and Clark Kent. :rambo: :cheeky:

Maybe call it something catchy, like "Route 66". Oh, wait a minute, somebody already did that with two guys named Buzz and Todd dressed in straight-leg jeans and button-front shirts driving a '60s era Corvette.

How about I-70 or route 70? It goes across most of the U.S.A. and it's still there, unlike route 66. It's just not a road like route 66 is.

You gotta work a Z into the title...

We should move the movie talk to another topic.

After trying, I think I killed the speedo in the disassembly. I have another one, and will just put the drill on it.

Woof. That's no fun.

How many miles do you have to go? I'll reset the odometer for you if you want to ship it to me. If you have to go only a couple miles, then no biggie, but if you've got to go halfway around the dial, that's a lot of drilling!

If you kill the next, I do have a spare 240Z speedometer.
