    I picked up the cover from BRE today. One of the best deals out there and it shows the BRE logo... I'll post a pic when it's on the car...
  5. Yep, same arm, just flipped over. I had the same questions when my car was restored.

    Nice, thanks guys. After doing some searching, it does look like this is priced fair and a good quality item. @Mike B, I'm surprised they didn't just give you the cover for acting as a supermodel for a day. Edit: Oh, I didn't know MSA had one too. I'll have to check that option as well..

    Does anyone know where I can find a fitted car cover for my 240z? Used or new. I already have a el-cheapo from the local parts store. I'm looking for something nicer and more fitted to the 240z. I'm considering the BRE car cover, but, I don't really need the weatherproofing. Just something to cover from dust inside my garage. Thanks.

    No we aren't hacked... Yes, I am running a back end software that scans the site for keywords and provides links to external sites. It's not perfect, but, it can be helpful. In this case, it didn't work all that great.. lol. (unless one of you wants to buy products from them -- by all means please click on it) It brings in about $70/mo to help me pay for server costs. The service is called Skimlinks and works within just a few minutes. m

    Nice car! I loved the Scarab as a kid... this one looks very clean. Documentation will help sell it at that price. Can your dad get any docs for it? Check out our Scarab forum for more information about the conversion and any additional details you may need with the listing. Mike

    @pazt2prezent, you are welcome. I hope you reconsider your opinions about forums and bring in some additional challenges. The one thing I do know is that our guys are very interested in exploring the genuine facts about the Z car, no matter the country. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here. Albeit a bit rough around the edges, you will find a ton of data (and debatable topics) to help make your Z projects a success.

    I think ZH meant that it's the 'same as it ever was'... Gents, we have to be a bit more friendly and choose our words carefully these days -- especially to new members. The Internet isn't the same as it ever was. Clubs like ours are fading out in comparison to the big social media sites. I'd like to know that our club is known for permanent content and a group of people that wants to help. The written word is a powerful thing, and the conversation that follows it can define who we are.

    Hey guys, I just reviewed this thread because it was reported to me. There were a few violations of the rules, but, most of it was on topic. One thing I ask is that you please try to be civil with each other as if you were standing in the same room. I am not going to go through and give violations this evening because I think you can figure out how and when you can be good to each other. The main objective of our club is to help others and collect information for the car. Debates can sometimes get heated, so I trust that you guys can keep it civil. We can only survive this modern world of media websites if we do these things.. We need people and a welcoming environment for all.. Thanks guys. Mike
  15. Found it, thanks! It was in chit chat, so, I moved to the heating and a/c forum.. Thanks.

    HA! Now that is crazeee
  17. I'd be interested to see how the installation of the VintageAge product works out. Can you keep us posted here with your progress? Has anyone else done it on an S30? (I already searched and didn't find anything)

    Man you guys have it great. I don't have much room anymore. We moved to the city so no more big garages. One day I'll be back in the quiet country with a garage to "tinker" in...
  19. Nice find! Thanks for posting it here. Good luck on the sale... Mike

  20. Hey dutch, do you mind if I put these into our files area? It would be easier to find there (rather than being stuck deep in a forum post). Mike
  21. Our microfiche images were created about 15 years ago using an external service that I paid. At the time, they had some pretty good equipment, but, I also spent about 50-60 hours cleaning up the final images you see today. I'm sure the scanning technology has improved since then, so, this could be looked at again. The microfight was in new at the time (donated by Nissan) and never used by a dealer. I still have them, and with today's scanning technology we might be able to get better images. We had a project going a few years ago to collect and store all documentation about the early model cars. Unfortunately, that project didn't go far when one of our leaders had a stroke. @Victor Laury was a great guy and had collected quite a few documents and had them scanned. Anyway, since then he has passed on and I fear the documents are lost. Although we do have a lot of documents collected by members, we could start this project again and have them posted on the site. I still have a number of documents that were donated to me directly and still need to scan them and post to the files area, too. Anyhoo, if you guys start looking into this more seriously, I think it's a great idea for club members. Instead of keeping them on your own sites, I highly recommend also putting copies into our files area as well. Personal websites and cloud shares often get lost in the shuffle, or, can go away forever if (god forbid) a health issue arises. So, please be sure to post them here if you find something good! I have long term plans to keep this website going even if something happens to me. Mike
  22. Nice work! I'm sure a lot of us have done this in the past.. Including yours truly...
