Hello, IMO spend the money and go TIG if you can afford it. Maybe $1500. The control you have is far superior to that of MIG. The signifiant difference is that to apply heat with MIG filler rod is being applied and you can have a overbuild up of filler metal. With TIG you add the filler rod as necissary controlling the heat with a foot controler and the torch. Learn the skill of TIG and you will hate MIG except for quick jobs around the house. IMO TIG is the only way to go, especially for body panels. Gene

Hello All, If you don't know what a Skyline GTR is don't fret. Check out www.skylinegtr.com . This is possibly the the coolest car I have seen. I only wish I could afford one.:mad: Gene

Hello All, Sorry for the slow response, to much work.:tapemouth Marty thanks for the offer. I will contact you. I was hoping someone could preview the car and give an unbiased opinion as to the "real" condition. Since I live in Michigan, and Have been trying to get to Chicago for the past couple of weekends, to no avail. This is the reason I am seeking help. Thanks for the responses. Gene

Hello All, Can Any one help me in assessing the whort while in a 240z in Chicago? This will be my first Zcar purchase. any help would be garteful. Thanks, GeneROFL

Hello, This is my first post. I am not trying to slam anyone just a little FYI. in response to this reply "Check the cable that goes to the fresh air vent which is behind the blower motor housing. If your vent is stuck open and not being closed by the cable, then you will be trying to heat fresh COLD air all the time. Yes eventually the heater will warm the air, but not HEAT it. " With the fresh air door in the closed position you will probably see condensation (fogging) begin to appearon your windows. I do not recommend driving in this mode. Recirculation mode is truely designed for 2 reasons 1)Max Air, is a recirculation mode, When the a/c is running. The evaporator acts as a dehumidifer, preventing fogging. 2) Air quality. When waiting at a light behind a desiel powerd vehicle, sorry they stink. By the way in today's cars the a/c runs when you are in a Defrost mode and the fresh air door will open automatically. Unfortunately I have yet to see a Z Car HVAC Unit yet as I am looking for a 240z myself. Thanks for Forum, Gene

Can someone tell me what the width of a stock 240z is? I would like to know if one will fit in my trailer. I have been searching the internet for some time, with no luck. Thanks, Gene
