  1. Marc Sayer, geeesh, haven't see that name in a long time.
  2. He better get his photos straightened out.
  3. At least your car is painted.
  4. Are we talking about the Datsun logo? Have you checked Classic Datsun Motorsports?
  5. Yeah, he's talking about the plastic tool bins (covers) behind the seats in the early models. No doubt they got broken a lot from people sliding their seats back with stuff trapped behind the seats.

    Dang this is your third or fourth post, you really are needy. J/K. The metal parts of the straps are about the cheapest things I've ever seen. I think Datsun could have done a lot better. They didn't even put chrome on them. Maybe you can buy nylon strapping and make some. There's no safety issue here, so I think homemade would work.
  7. Yup, check out my sig. So my Z is better than your Z, nanny nanny boo boo. Hahahahaha.
  8. Excuse me, but mine is lighted. It came in my car that way.

    I have my stated value policy with Nationwide. I have all my cars and my house with them. It can be done. With Hagerty, you car has to almost be a trailer queen, or you only drive to shows. They told me my car wasn't qualified.
  10. Interesting, mine is lighted. I used the parts from a 73 switch to fix mine.

    Go to Shox.com, and forget the local shops.

    Is there a video file available?

    Carl/All, may I add that the professional appraisal is really for the insurance company. I should have stated that, sorry.
  14. No, absolutely not. They were all black. :classic:
  15. Do you have an owner's manual for your model car? It has all that info.
  16. I'd like to get a consensus on the quality and appearance of a few of the various wheels brands such as Minilite, Panasport and Konig. Specifically those brands that make the Minilite knockoffs like the Panasport Formulas and Konig Rewinds. The Konig price difference is amazing; how can they do that and guarantee identical quality. I like the look of the Panasport Formula Gunmetal w/ polished lip. The Konig Rewinds are similar but not exactly like the Minilites. Panasport---------Konig----------Minilite
  17. So how much does Balancing and Blueprinting add to the total engine rebuild?

    Unfortunately, I'm going to have to disagree with you. When you move into a neighborhood with convenants (as I have), you sign those covenants upon closing on your property. If they specify certain limits on vehicles, etc.... then you must comply. I love the Constitution as much as the Founders, but this has nothing to do with personal property rights and the government. It has to do with personal property rights and contracts. Anyway, I'm sure we've been beating a dead horse.

    I think a parts car (#6) class should be added to shows. You could have the best parts cars that can only be transported in an enclosed trailer (so parts don't fall on the road) brought to shows for judging by qualified amateurs.

    I think there are only two ways to get a true value for a car, 1) professional appraisal, and 2) sell the car and what you get is what it's worth.
  21. Enigma, government computers have strange blocking settings, and it also depends on the DOIM.

    Are you seeing a psychiatrist? You should, really. Do you ever read your posts after you write them?

    I'm surprised Mike allowed you to get away with titling this thread that way it is, considering.
  24. Is this the same Euro light set that was sold by MSA?

    I just looked at mine. My BRE spook is black on the back, but it is just like the off yellow one in your photo.
