    In the magazine article that he took pictures of, he says that you get everything... the parts, the cars, the house and the buses... $2M at the time of the article, now he's asking $1.5M. There is a lot of really valuable stuff there, but some of the condition looks iffy. A shame really.

    E- Please tell me that you seperated the blister packs and repainted them! Do you know how many hours I'm going to spend looking for all those?!?!? Off to Wal-Mart I go! Nate

  10. First off... This is how's it's been explained to me and it actually makes a little sense. I am a born and bread southerner, Charleston, SC to be exact! By way of the Coast Guard I now have logged in more than 5 years in Upstate NY. Aside from the obvious reasons of letting the vehicle warm up longer and spinning the tires on snow and ice...... Air:Fuel ratio. The air is colder and therefore more dense requiring more fuel to maintain the proper ratio, otherwise the vehicle would run lean. Every year when winter comes along I too see a decrease in mpg. My $.02... Nate

    Mike, Outstanding write-up! This is VERY good info and in fact you have inspired me to take this project on while my Z is in winter lay-up. Worth mentioning... I noticed on the Z Car Creations page that you linked to, that they noted for 240Z and 260Z to install a diode to prevent run on. Thanks for the time you spent gathering up the info and placing it into one solid article, It will save many of us a lot of time. Nate

    I've used a bunch of products over the years, but can't say that I've used Liquid Glass. Typically I use Meguiars, outstanding results and readily available almost everywhere. Jim has pretty much laid out the best way to go about restoring the shine... but if you're looking to do a little less work try a clay bar, polish, and then follow up with wax... typically I use Meguiars Carnauba but recently I gave their NXT Generation Tech Wax and this stuff is awesome! I'm not usually into synthetic waxes but this stuff worked great! Nate
  17. Sweet! Congrats Dave! I can only imagine some magazine coverage in the future...

  19. Mike, From what I can tell it looks pretty much the same with just a reworked front end. And from what I can tell that is just an artists rendering using the 35th anniversary model. Personally I like that front end better... maybe Nissan should hire that guy... And the color is all you!
