new 1972 240z

[trevorgrubb]

I just got a new 1972 240z this past Christmas.  I am new to the forum and the car community in general as this is my first car.  My dad grubb240z has been on the forum for a while.

Welcome Trevor and your new best friend too.

nice looking 240z.

I still have my very first car which was a 240z and I have had it 35 years...

You're very fortunate to have a Dad like you do.  Mine cared more about working than doing nice things for his kids.  He's almost 80 now and come full circle though.  I followed your Dad's thread with nothing but smiles.  Treat that car good, it means a lot to two people. 

Maybe let your sister drive it someday!

Welcome to the group.  Many of us followed your dad's posts before Christmas and we're very glad to meet you and your "new" ride.  Speaking for myself and presumably others, I hope you'll make our forum a regular stopping point for your web surfing.  This is probably the most helpful group you will come across.  Enjoy the ride!

Enjoy the ride!

Welcome pal. Cool car but your Dad is way cooler!

[siteunseen]

I never thought I'd never hear that!  Give him a minute, he looks pretty cool.  We're jealous,  at least I am.

Keep up the good work!

 Cool much like respect has to be earned.

Congratulations on your acquisition and welcome to the club!  Your Z looks great, very period correct with the mags, spoiler, and headlight covers.  We look forward to your updates on it.

Welcome young man and congratulations. If you should ever be blessed enough to have your own children don't forget what goes into being a DAD, at least sometimes. And no it's not about material things but more about what your children mean to you. If you ever paint it PLEASE have them paint over the Pegasus! Enjoy the experience!

That reminds me I taught my sister to drive a stick with my first car, an Austin Healy. Thankfully the clutch held up. On that car you pull the motor to change the clutch.

I just had to have that car. My dad said no problem, you pay for it and I just only co-sign your loan. You miss any payments the bank owns it. Forget help from me he said.

That was incentive to always keep a job to pay for it. He was a hard nose Norwegian. Good learning experience.
