Hi Martin, Glad to hear the tank didn't leak but I'm surprised you had to replace rocker arms...When I had my guy inspect the head and change the cam, he didn't mention this at all. Did you drive through the gorge coming from Idaho at all? I did that drive and it's beautiful country....I'm sure your road trip was a good one. My car is not without issues...I just found out the carbs need to be rebuilt and of course there is always bodywork to be done. The floors are good now thanks to Por-15 and power mesh. I'm thinking I'll either paint it a pure silver like the BMW's or Mercedes silver OR....midnight black with another white stripe down the side. I'm leaning towards silver right now to make the job of shooting the jambs easier. Enjoy the car...keep up the good work and drop a line every now and then. I love seeing the old girl is getting taken care of. Chris

Hi Martin....Glad to hear from you. The car looks oddly different without the white 240Z decal but I like it. I'm glad to hear you got her safely home and things are moving forward. I am seriously considering painting this one black as well once all the mechanicals are addressed. I think I'll get the same wheels only 16's this time around....re-create the one you bought. did you have a good summer with the car? Cheers, Chris

My buddy used to live in Chatham...I've been there many times and never saw a zed. Maybe it was because I was always out at night and drinking too much. I've scoured the Ontario z car, TIZCC and everywhere wlse looking for fenders...I'm going to have to go south to the US but that's fine. I like your car...always loved the lime/yellow colour

I saw those posted earlier...Vito had a nice 240Z that apparently he sold to someone in Vancouver. I'm guessing he kept these for a rainy day. My quarters are actually nicely done but I am looking for a good set of fenders. Where are you in Ontario? Chris
