Hi Motorman7. I've been away from this site for about 10 years or so. You commented on my thread 11 years ago, same color as your. I noticed that you moved to Boise. I live in Boise and would like to connect and swap stories. I still have my Z, but haven't done much in the 11 years. I'm not sure how this site works as far as confidential contact info. I'll poke around to see what I can figure out. Cheers.

A great story. I can relate to Frank. I bought my Z in September 1970, in St. Louis. I still have it, and it will be 50 years old next year. I was 22 then, so you know how old I am now. My z still runs, and drives, but needs lots of work. Reading your story brings back many memories of fun trips I had in my Z. My first born, was almost born in the car, barley made it to the hospital. Thanks

Moterman - It is the original paint. I saw your photo's yesterday and sent you a comment, I probably didn't do it right, still learning this site. I commented on how beautiful your Z looked. It looks new in every aspect, interior, original wheels, engine, everything. I bought mine new in Sept 70 and still have it - although I sold it once and it was adrift for 10 years (1990 - 2000). When I purchased it back, I didn't know at first that it way my original Z, but saw some familiar scratches I had made that were still there. Mine looks pretty good, runs good, and the body is in pretty good shape, but it needs lots of work - shocks, tires, brakes, clutch, interior work, etc, etc. I doubt that I'll ever get mine to look as good as yours, but I have a good base to start - only lots time and lots of $$. Great Job you have done, it looks like new Jim -
