Many thanks to Bill and all those that had a hand in hosting this get together. My wife and I had a great time driving both our Zs over from JAX and spending time wilh like-minded folks. Got reacquainted with some we haven't seen in years and made some new friends as well. Look forward to the next one!

Yea, they're the B45's, 16", running BFG Comp T/A 245/45ZR front, 255/50ZR rear. Here's a pic of the car. Thanks again for the info, I was able to locate a US distributor and order the center caps I'm missing.

Brett, Thanks so much for the web link! Every time I did a search I came up empty and no one I spoke to in the local clubs had a clue. Thanks again! BOBZCARS 72 240 L28/E31 3XWebers 74 Scarab Stage II Turbo 350

I've got a '74 V8 Z with some very nice Simmons 3pc wheels. but I've managed to lose a center cap and can't find anyone in the US that knows ANYTHING about the manufacturer. I know they came from Australia so I'm hoping someone on this forum may have an idea on how to get in touch with the company. I've searched the net with no luck. Any suggestions out there?? Thanks!

I've got a 260Z with a Turbo'd Chevy 350 bolted to a T-10 but would like to convert to a WC T5. The Chevy is a 4-bolt main with a split rear main seal ('69-'80 vintage casting number). Anyone know if this is an easy swap? Any known problems with bolt-up, clutch, etc.? Thanks! BOBZCARS

Just visit your local boneyard and get another mustache bar. A whole used one is probably cheaper than one new bushing. Cheers!

Damian, I took a look at the pics you posted and that stuff is about the closest to original I've seen...just doesn't have the flocking on the glass side. Does your source have a catalogue or web site? I could use enough for 2 Z's! Thanks!

Are you new to Classic Zcar or new to LA? If you're new to LA and haven't joined GroupZ, join! They're a great group and can provide a wealth of advice in looking for a Z...a few members may have one for sale! In March I relocated to Jacksonville, FL, from SoCal and miss the club very much. I only just found a local (Gainesville) club with about 30 members (and growing!) I was getting worried as I had only seen ONE 1st gen Z since I arrived! You are in probably the location with the largest concentration of Z's in the world. Enjoy it!
