  1. Maybe a picture would help.

    I've got an original 175SR14 that might have been used once or twice shortly during its life. It is mounted on a rim stamped 11 69. Still working on the damn paint. I think I've had 5 samples mixed by my shop and have mixed 4 of my own custom mixes too with the samples I purchased. This really sucks. John

    WOW! Nice find John. I looked for 3 months on ebay and CL locally and couldn't find a quality deal. Ended up buying a new 60 gal porter in June for $450 and am about ready to trade up because it just doesn't keep up when running the blasting cabinet or pot. Not such an issue with the pot because it only holds about 70# and needs to be refilled every 15 minutes, but the cabinet is another story. John
  4. Thanks, been looking for that. John
  5. Mike, Not sure but judging by the oil buildup in the airbox I would imagine there is a significant amount of blow by that over the years might cause an issue. Just guessing but it seems logical. John

    I can't help you with the size but here is a site that sells all sizes if you do find the size. http://www.boltdepot.com/metric-fasteners.html It might help if you post the year of your vehicle. Welcome to the club. Join ZOOM if you have a chance. John

    Thank you;) John
  8. I have a 240Z so it may be different but I removed all bolts from intake and exhaust. After that I took a block of 2x4 and put it against the exhaust manifold and gave it a good shot with a 3 pound sledge. It was just enough to loosen the gasket enough to "peel" it off the rest of the way. Hope that helps. John
  9. Not sure about out there but in Minnesota you can purchase collector plates and it can sit forever without being driven. Collector plates usually only have a 1 time fee associated with them. I consider that a bonus. John

    go to your local farmers store, or northern tool. They have all sizes and types. Just bring the old one in to match the size (Diameter and Length). and dont forget the cotter pins. John

    Do you just need the lower part? You only need 1? Cheapest I could find online was $60.00 each new. I'd take $30.00 delivered for 1 or $50.00 delivered for the pair, lower portion only. Let me know and I will PM you my PayPal address. John
  14. Welcome to the club. You should probably post your question in the body section but most users would see it under new posts anyway. Here is a link to a company in AU. https://rsp-secure.com/rarespares/ THey have floor pan sections but do not show 2+2 pans. I would guess that your pans might only be shot at the fron so these may work. Rarespares may be able to fab some pans for you. Good luck. John

    This is what I have. Let me know what you want to pay for the arm without the blade holder. I am open to offers. John
  16. I was 16 and growing up in south florida, what do you think? John
  17. There might have been weed in my first Z. I just can't remember........
  18. JohnnyO replied to Pomorza's post in a topic in Parts Swapping
    If you are talking about the part that holds the blade I have a set. PM me. John
  19. Do you have a picture of what you need? Are they the clips on the center console where the cable attaches? John
  20. I don't know the car but some of those pictures look like they belong in a brochure.
  21. JohnnyO replied to JohnnyO's post in a topic in Body & Paint
    OK. I am going to get a sample made and spray it next weekend. I will let you know how it turns out. John

    Welcome to the club. Do you own a Z? If so, please post a pic. John
  23. JohnnyO replied to JohnnyO's post in a topic in Body & Paint
    Do you know if the guy above did a color match or used a code card from the 70's? The reason I ask is that the color in your picture (post 38) looks similar to the samples I have seen from the PPG cards from the 70's. John

    Welcome and congrats. You should find most, if not all, the information you need right here. Post some pics when you get a chance. John

    WARNING: HIJACK AHEAD (sorry) Are "tar mats" still available or is there an after market solution. Thanks, John
