Ferrari 250 replica based on a 260Z wants $ 100,000
Thats a pretty sharp looking replica. $100,000 is not too bad IMHO. I would have expected the rubber around the rear hatch to be a better quality and fit though.

Bumper bracket broken, weld back on?
You might be able to weld it back on if you stand the bumper a shallow tub of water to absorb the heat. Of course you wouldn't want the water spilling over the weld area. It should have a good chance of working.

240z vs 260z front and rear spring height
Accirding to my Haynes manual-- Front coil springs--240----260 Wire diameter-----.417---.453 Free length-------15.1---15.5 Rear coil springs same for both 240 and 260. Wire dia.--------.449 Free length-------15 inches Hope this helps. FWIW to help stop my 240 from squating at the rear on acceleration i fitted 260 front springs shortened a little, to the rear. Slightly stiffer but not too much

I can confirm that my 240's tank still has fuel when the gauge needle does not move. Tank was sucked dry of fuel when at the paint shop, and i drove it home not noticing.

Farewell to my old friend
I have been tossing up about selling my 72. This makes me think i will hold it for a while yet. At least for another summer down here. NZ I must admit i would be sad to see her go as well.

My car rides like Poo :(
The first thing i would do is put the shock adjustment to the lowest setting.(If they are adjustable)
- engine over heating with new su carbs

My car rides like Poo :(
Shocks can make it ride hard. I have shortened stock springs in my 72. With stuffed shocks it was a very soft ride. New shocks made it ride considerably firmer. I now have adjustable Konis on the front on the very lowest setting, as any higher setting makes the ride too firm, and newish shocks of a brand forgotten on the rear. The ride is firm but not uncomfortable for this seventy year old
