  1. Looking good!! Congratulations!!!
  2. Hi Spunky, I get the same thing ALL THE TIME!!!! All kinds of animals just seem to flock to me. I have had pets that took to me that their owners were amazed because they never let strangers near them. My mom is the same way. I guess animals just know animal lovers!!!
  3. :classic: Speaking of pets, I will be getting one in the next month or so. I figure winter is almost over so now is a good time. I love German shepherds, but since I am an apartment dweller, I will probably settle for a cat.

    O gee, the one time I knew the answer, someone beats me to it!!!
  5. That is hard to say. The motor is perfect, so it really runs well. 2Many recommended the medium grade gasoline recently and that is what I have been using ever since, because as he said, many places just take the bottom of the barrel grade gas for the inexpensive stuff but if your car isn't really souped up or something the high priced stuff won't do you much good. My main problems are serious rust, suspension, and electrical problems. I will be starting a new job Tuesday with great pay:classic: and I am planning to up the budget on the car from 400 a month to 800 monthly, but that is restoration and stuff not general maintainance. My goal is to have it totally done in 18 months. Wish me luck!!!!!
  6. I don't really think of my Z in terms of how much money it is worth. I would never sell it unless it was to get one in better condition that doesn't need so much work done on it. If I had access to a good shop and the know-how, I wouldn't sell it then, however I am mechanically stupid and don't have a shop/tools. When I got the car, I thought that I would have a hand in doing the work, that was part of the appeal, but so much for that.:mad: It is just one of those things that you can't put a $ value on, I just know that I LOVE driving it!!!!

    I already know what mine is going to be if I get to choose. "Dillion's Grandma."

    But how did Kyle get to be "master of my own destiny?"
  11. I have a 56k modem, but I have noticed that it is exceptionally fast.
  12. I like it very much!! Great job!!
  13. As Bambikiller said, the lettering on the glove box is supposed to be white, at least it is in my 240. If you think silver is bad on the steering wheel you should see mine. My ex went beserk trying to get rid of all the leftover paint (Nason's starburst blue mettallic), and painted my steering wheel blue!! But now I know how to fix it!!
  14. If it runs, for 250 I don't see how you could go wrong.
  15. I love that color. Wonder what it is called?

    OOPS!!:stupid: Sorry Inf!! I guess I should "play" attention next time I am watching my kids change the oil!!

    Hi and congratulations!! I also have a 72 240Z and all they require at inspection is that it can pass all safety issues. The cost is 12.00 for the sticker. (My car takes 4 quarts.) Have fun, Bonnie
  18. I love to go fast, but to me, looks come first. Of course, when you are restoring the car you make it mechanically sound before you start on the looks. (Especially if you are driving it in the meantime, as I am!!) It always makes me sad to go to a car show and see classic old cars distorted beyond recognition by some moron with more money than sense. KEEP IT ORIGIONAL!!!!! (Just my 2 chirps worth)

    Man, I wish I had 3000 on hand!! I am sitting here crying in my coffee.
  20. The wheel on the rear looks just like what I have on my 72 240Z. (See my gallery.)
  21. Hi, welcome to the club David. Robert at Z-Car World in Irving (972 438-7583) might be able to help you out, or refer you to someone who can. Good luck and have fun!!! Bonnie
  22. Speaking of gas, is the expensive stuff really better?
  23. bonniec75209 replied to MrPeabody's post in a topic in Open Chit Chat
    Please excuse me as I am mechanically ignorant:stupid: , but I was wondering, is there a useful purpose for a wing/rear spoiler or is it just to look good?

  25. Michael, you are silly!!!
