  1. Seller pays $99 to list a car and the buyer is charged 5% of the winning bid with a $5,000 maximum payment. Dennis
  2. Probably a little more alcohol flowing at a Barrett Jackson auction than with a BaT auction. That can loosen up the bidding/judgement restraint. A friend of mine sold his Porsche 912 on BaT a few weeks ago and did surprising well. The final bid far exceeded his expectations and the car is now on its way to Europe. Dennis
  3. If it's the storm that blew through California in the last couple days, get the snow shovels out. It dropped over four feet of snow in the northern ski areas and a couple feet in the local southern mountain resorts. Good luck! Dennis
  4. What is this Photoshop you speak of? Is it like the little building in the mall parking lot where I drop off my 35mm Ektachrome to be developed...Fotomat? Or is it a place to buy cameras, film, lenses? Dennis
  5. Is that a newer Prius, not 20 years old, in one of the pictures? Enlarge the photo of the rear license plate and read the year on the sticker in the top right corner. I think the green ones were fairly recent. Dennis
  6. I believe the Honest John site noted above reporting 234 240Zs registered refers to 240Zs in the UK, not the US. Dennis
  7. Price details? Attachment details and close up pictures....not that I don't like the blue masking tape attachment method in the pictures Dennis
  8. What search terms are you using? If the car has been in a locked trailer for 20 years, it's unlikely that Grandma had a website or a blog at the end of the last century unless, in addition to being truck driver, she was also a techie. Dennis
  9. No family members who remember anything about "Grandma's" car? Who holds the title? Who has the keys? Dennis
  10. Who would have known? In addition to being a capable sports car, it's an off-road vehicle, too! Dennis
  11. interesting troubleshooting that the seller mentions....... pulling the engine and rebuilding the head as a fix for the engine not starting. Dennis
  12. Sorry, no help with the part # for the flex fan I bought in 1979. There is one listed on eBay at: https://www.ebay.com/i/173624848712?chn=ps I bought the flex fan because it was an inexpensive replacement for the stock unit that had just gone through my radiator. It worked, not sure it was any better or worse at cooling than the stock fan and clutch set up. Replaced the flex fan with a stock fan and clutch about 2007. I think I probably pitched the flex fan and spacer but can check in the garage. Dennis
  13. My '71 is working nicely with the original alternator, although others have mentioned upgrading when they added fans. Keep in mind that the article you posted above mentions that the Sirocco fan was NOT a perfect fix and the problem was not perfectly resolved until Nissan stopped using carbs and moved to fuel injection. So, like so many automotive upgrades, pay your money and take your chances. Based on what you've posted over the years, I have a sense that your Z will be a long term ongoing trial and error project. So, give it a try. Dennis
  14. Can't hurt. Moving more air through the engine compartment is good on a hot day. Many of us have thermostat controlled electric fans on our Zs with AC. Haven't we had this discussion previously? Dennis
  15. And, you can probably use it as a mobile "hotspot" for your computer or iPad. You now have more computing power in your hand than the first astronauts had in their space capsules. Dennis
  16. Happy New Year to you and all. Stay safe. Dennis
  17. Alabama looks good tonight. Oklahoma, not so much. Snow is melting a bit but temperature is in the low 20s overnight. I was going to suggest a glass shop, but sounds like you've checked into that already. I did that with the Avanti outside mirror in the past. Dennis
  18. Cliff, do you just need the glass mirror part?
  19. Good choice, Samsung makes a good phone. New opportunities to suck away your free time await!
  20. Lake Arrowhead. A nice escape from the desert when it's 120º in the summer and 20 minutes from a ski resort in the winter.
  21. Not in the 60s where I am today. 5,750 feet above sea level in the local mountains......where it snows and people ski. Dennis
  22. The desert dog finally awoke and didn't look too happy about the white stuff. Dennis
  23. It's been snowing here since about 5:00 this morning and my dog is still snuggled deep in the feather comforter on the bed. He's in for a snowy surprise when he goes out this morning. I hope Santa was good to all of you this year. Dennis
  24. Oops. 7' X 2'.......and as you may have replied to your girlfriend, "It might not be too big around, but it's real short" Cliff, thanks for being a better proof reader than I am. Dennis
