Two Z's sold today.  The white one looks like a clean start for somebody.

I don't know how that white one sold for 16 grand. Far better ones have sold for the same price.

Those are used on the 81-83 280ZX F54 block and 5 speed transmission.  Earlier doesn't have the holes.  Apparently it's an NVH reducing device.  Somebody must have identified some flex between the transmission and engine block.

They do look cool.

I must have missed you reply ^ . Forgive me mighty Z-en master. Carry on with Seinfeld it was quite a funny show.

So a later block would be needed to go with them, right? The earlier blocks don’t have a larger boss cast there with the two holes.

Those are the F54 blocks.

I won't even put stickers on my cars for that reason. The Zs are well known around town but that Camry and my D21 pickup are getaway cars.

No reserve 71.  $16,250 is not enough.

Red calipers and low profile tires.  Do they really work on any car?  I wonder what the new owner will do when he gets this.

$143,000, even with silly wheels and tires!  I'll bet Buzz and Todd never thought their ride was going to be worth that kind of money.

I think the covid dead cat bounce is on the ground for the last bounce. Guys aren't watching BAT like they were and the game is kind of over now. Time to tighten up those belts finally. Mine been tight so long I have a bruise around my waist.
