My high side expectation was low six figures. If you had suggested 310k, I would have said you were crazy! An amazing pricepoint for a car that still had some flaws

There should also be a secondary adjustment screw that might get you some more room. It faces down on the other side of the distributor base. DON'T break it off

It's a double edged sword! It's great if you're ready to cash out. Not so great if you want to drive them and enjoy them. Harder to insure and you have to start thinking like a Ferrari owner. Is it safe, is someone going to vandalize it or hit it in the parking lot. I sort of miss the "it's a cheap car" thing. It made it very low stress to "drive it like you stole it" and to park it anywhere. The flip side of rising prices is the availability of new reproduction parts that wouldn't exist if the cars didn't have the underlying value

Yes, but it's not an R. A nice rare car but still a 240z. Didn't take as long as I thought it would to get to six figure cars. I think before too long you will see less rare cars appreciate towards this level.

Over a 100k with 3 days to go!

Yes, you can remove the shims under the hinges. which will move it forward, but you have to be very careful the hatch lip doesn't contact the roof! It will remove the paint really quickly if it does. The hatch looks like it might still be a touch lower than the roof which will add to potential interference

It looks really good! Was all the sectioning of the rear bumper done with a plastic welder?

We are about to head into our traditionally bad months of Feb & March. I dont know about April. It can be really different weather in the mountains than where I am in the foothills even though its not that far away

Or vote against taxes and or expect less services from a nationally level government National government (either here or there) is not known for its efficiency.

What makes the graphite rewinds a mistake?

In LA I suspect finding a good metal man to do all the hammer work might be challenge in the 6-10k range
-
Did you sell the car yet? If not PM me and we can talk

$74.5k ends in 7 days

If I didn't have so many projects I would buy it today with mommas approval

Also the caliper bleeds need to be on top no matter what position they are installed in

That's what I thought but the other side of the "world" from me...

Crossing the Ebrake lines is a common thing in this conversion
