Zvoiture

I can't believe you were there, Tom! You should have e-mailed me and let me know you were coming. Your car is unbelievable and would have fit well with the group I was parked with. No one from CCZCC attended (so I thought), so I parked with the WCZRacer group. I was parked next to CHINO's car. Directly across from the bandstand, next to the PierreZ group. I walked to the end several times, but SO MANY CARS!!!!! steve

Well, I guess it is my fault I didn't meet more 240.orgers--or even see ones who knew my car. I BROUGHT A BRAND NEW CAR!!!! One that I haven't posted too many pictures of anywhere (top secret) and MSA was its official unveiling! (yes, that silver/turquoise/blue hulk in my garage--remember 'New Graphics for my Z' thread?--but, thanks to not sleeping for nearly a week, it looked much different at the show) And I was not parked with big Steve and the rest of the Central Valley/Central Coast guys, I was with the West Coast Z Racers. So I guess everybody just walked on by..... That's what I get for not bringing my 'trademark' car. It was very sad for not going, by the way. Still hasn't spoke to me. steve

I keep coming here to re-visit the show and there is nearly nothing!!! In past years there have been pages within HOURS. A whole day later and we have a half-dozen of Vic's pix. Where--by the way--I learned Whitaker was there and never came and siad hi. Maybe he didn't recognize my new car! I almost won Worst Paint Job. Next year I am wearing a bikini. Speaking of MIA, where was EricB and Jerry (gozracergo)???? Frank13 tracked me down somehow... Did anyone here glean some treasures from my trailer of EVERYTHING FREE?!?! If you did, thanks a million! Should have brought three times that much! Oh, and Vic, I am saving all my aluminum for you. Grist for the mill, you know. I had no idea you were into such things. I've got valve covers, pump block-offs, chain housings, injected intakes, you name it. All yours. steve

I'm just curious...having never had an on-(or off!)track experience like this YET...What does a person say after they do something like this? What does he say to you? Sorry? steve

JCWhitney sells an attachment for a 4 1/2" grinder that takes your car down to a media blaster and then returns it home to you a few days later. Works great. Look in their catalogue. steve

Pegasus, Erik Messley, or Ground Control. steve

The other corner...

Here's a couple of better shots. Not trying to hijack your thread, Tom, but it is a lot like your 2nd choice....

I think the original word was 'functionality'. If the car is to be driven on the street, then you obviously need to add circuits for a few things other than brake lights. Also, although it looks simple, keep in mind everything there (not including battery, starter, alternator, brake lights, fan or fuel pump) is not cheap. Everything pictured will run you somewhere in the neighborhood of $700. steve

Yes, it looked quite a bit different on a M-series sedan. Transposing it to the curvy car made it take on a different effect. I'll see if I can dig up the magazine. The problem with the yahoo links is it is a members-only Z site. Yahoo USED to let the public read messages and view photos--but nothing else--and now it seems they ahve put their stranglehold on that too. Oh, well...it's free! steve

There's at least one mistake. Can you find it? Wire sizes: Battery (trunk) +: 2/0 Battery (both) -: 4 Main + to breaker board: 8 Breaker board to switch panel: 10 All other wires: 12 I also put my AMB transponder on one of the spares through a 2A breaker. steve

Here's my solution! steve

Ummmm...I guess I'm going to take that as a compliment? Those are junk rollers, man! Paint wheels. I got wheels. Trust me. I got wheels! steve

Sure is fun playing around with diferent hosts...NOT! Too funny. What the hell...here you go... The other side is just the opposite. The front fender is all blue and it all fades to zero about mid-door. In the rear, the blue dies down through the valence just right of center. I got the idea from a BMW in a magazine I have--but it was red/white/blue. steve

Here, hold my beer. Try this: http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/857a5f11/bc/6ccb/__sr_/c9d1.jpg?phK.ZgABDsTdP31B steve

Tom, you're not going to believe this, but my new race car is disturbingly like your #2 scheme. Here is a really bad photo and you will probably need a Yahoo ID to view... http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/groups/g_11752116/__hr_IMGP1619.jpg?bcdfUgABC5HUyMPQ steve

>>>2. Buy "Fairlady 240zxtsr" badging <<< Yo, they gotta be JDM Fairlady 240zxtsr badges, man! stve

>>>>I found orange paint on my 240<<<< That's it. Bye. steve

Deer whistles have their fans. I've never had one. No one I know has one. But you see them and people swear by them. And I'm the one that hit the deer! Guess I shoulda had a whistle! steve
