Good vendor. Dennis

Stock Early Z bumpers are little more than chrome trim. But, chromed or powder coated, metal ones have to be more durable than the fiberglass versions. I look forward to seeing pictures. Dennis

Try not to bump anything with those powder coated bumpers when you get them. They'll be a little difficult to touch up. Dennis

Time to buy some Alcoa stock? Dennis

It's nice to see a well done, relatively unmolested, Z. But, I think this is another example of psychological game playing in which the seller throws out a dollar value number as if it were fact. Putting a high "Buy it Now" value on an Ebay auction is also part of the "psych". It sets the stage for uninformed bidders. It will be interesting to watch how this one goes. Dennis

And those macadamias are likely to be wrapped in soiled knickers.

There's a cigarette lighter in the dash above the flasher switch.....not like my '71. Dennis

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what happens when little boys refuse to grow up. Dennis

Just remember.....Measure Twice, Cut Once. Dennis

I had to trim a few inches off mine on my '71. Dennis

I sense a disturbance in the Force.....or is it just competition in the After-Market for Euro lenses? Dennis

Pointy end down. If it's the proper key, it should fit into the lock slot opening. Then, just a twist to release the lock cam. If it's too wide, or too thick, wrong key. Does it look like the one in the picture and drawing above? Dennis

No disagreement there. The Z you referenced is not a typical example of the "breed", however, and I don't feel that a value generalization can be made that would indicate a market trend. The Z in the ad has exceptional value added in parts and workmanship and the asking price indicates a not unreasonable value for that particular car. Dennis

One leaf falling from a tree is not an indicator of Autumn. Dennis

Not sure I'd like to explain the heavily tinted side windows and low "headlights" if I were to be stopped by the CHP for not having a front license plate. Dennis

The ad also says it's titled as a '62 Ferrari with an AZ VIN. How do they do that? Dennis

I think the seller also thinks the asking price may be optimistic. There are two choices in the auction - "Buy It Now" for 100K or "Make An Offer". I'm reasonably sure the seller doesn't expect the "Make An Offer" choice to be higher than $100,000. Dennis

There may be a significant difference between "wants" and "gets" on this one. Dennis

Enlightening. Thanks, Dennis

I know the story that goes with USA Thanksgiving. What's the story behind Canadian Thanksgiving? Dennis

I guess that means that Canadian Christmas is just a few weeks away. Dennis

And must be sold from a Beverly Hills address.

Several other question accompany the decision. Here are a few. Can you install the replacement yourself after removing the old dash and instruments? Is $1,800 within your budget? What level of restoration do you desire - show quality or cover the cracks quality? How long do you plan to keep the car? Dennis

You mean like when they drove the Ferrari under the low flying jet and connected the lap top to the ethernet cable hanging from the wheel well? Sorry, but they lost me at that point. The idea for the show is based on a real guy. His technology helped catch the recent Boston Marathon bombers. He's had quite a career that began by hacking into NASA when he was a kid. His real story is a little better than the first episode of the show. Dennis
