  1. Hmm, did you do a search on the site for wheel offset? You might want to check to see if there were other conversations about this subject. I know there were a bunch a few years ago, but, not sure if it's relevant to your wheels or not...
  2. Points are horrible. They are always pitting and bouncing unevenly off the cam at high RPM. Similar to the covered wagon, they were a good idea at the time. You can buy the whole get-up at Motorsport. FYI, they also sell a drop-in electronic pick up system that will replace the points. But, I'm not sure if you're at that stage just yet. Start with the new points and then work your way up the ladder later.
  3. Ok, got it all working... CAR PHOTOS UPLOADED. Gallery is working, image attachments are working.............. YAHOO!

  13. Only problem is that you need an original panel to cover... The hardened cardboard stuff is hard to find anymore.
  14. Wow, that is nice!
  15. Point gap looks kinda small. I also see pitting where the point seized together. You should replace the points. Get new ones at Napa or directly from Nissan. Don't buy cheap points. While you're at it, get a new distributor cap & rotor (from Nissan preferably). I'm not saying this will fix your problem, but, I believe you should always start with a good set of points and a new cap/rotor. They are cheap (less than $20 for all). These things corrode and can become pitted causing resistance. -- Mike
  16. Hmm... I'd pick one over anything else... CORRECT.
  17. That's completely out of line... Someone has GOT to start making these aftermarket.
  18. Get used to it. I'm not sure why, but, all body shops are the same. Of course they don't like it when you hold the check after the project is done either.
  19. In Alaska? I'd worry about the snow. If you buy a canopy, make sure it's got metal roofing at least. You don't want snow to cave in causing the structure to scratch your car. For a Z with no rust, can you afford to store it in a garage over the winter? I'd think storage places in Alaska would be pretty cheap.
  20. Hi Mckrack, Nobody here is asking you to leave. I must also admit that there is no reason to prove who you are. This is a website where we freely exchange information about the Classic Zcar. As long as that concept is maintained, there is no reason to worry. Now, back to the topic.... Did we ever determine the correct colors of both the hubcaps and the rear panel? I'm interested in this because I have a car under restoration and would like to know... -- Mike
  21. I want one!!
  22. I went and took a few more pictures this last week. Engine is just about done and I expect we'll be installing that in a few weeks. Note the headlight buckets are installed and headlights are in. Wiring harness is complete and I simply need to make the main 10ga connection on the inside, patch it up, and re-install the glovebox. Wiring tests are complete and things are looking very good. Crap, it looks like something broke on the image upload process. Working on that now.
