Misc. +...
"I think we all know that some folks just don't have their heads squarely attached. The last message I received was purely gibberish. " I couldn't agree more, your statement certianly describes someone who has ever tried to sell a "Misc. Part", or an "assorted Z". I have never seen a part number for the first, nor a car actually sold as the second! The statement " I have several complete cars from 1972-1982-including the turbocharged variety, for sale, and many good mechanical and interior parts for the same cars." would have actually brought you more requests for specific information, and probably sales within the first 5 posts instead of what you got. I think a quick perusal of past posts to the ad forums will prove my point(s)! Check my Ebay feedback to see the seriousness of my inquiry, I have bought, and sold, and been effective at both! For your convenience I have included my stats: and they reside under the member name Connatser. Feedback Score: 97 Positive Feedback: 100% Members who left a positive: 97 Members who left a negative: 0 All positive feedback received: 129 Here is a link,should you wish to verify my story! http://cgi2.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=connatser&ssPageName=STRK:ME:UFS All drivel aside, "what have you got, and what do you want for it?" :classic: Will

If Anyone is interested
Here are the replies! William, Sorry for any confusion. You will have to add $195.00 to the final bid price. We will take care of sending you the title overnight, bill of sale and buyers guide, holding car, inventory tax, etc. We will transfer the title out of the state of Missouri to you and pay for Missouri registration only. You will still have to pay for title transfer into your home state as well as any and all taxes imposed by your state. If this is not acceptable to you, please do not bid on the car. Kind regards, Scott Brandt President MotoeXotica.com PS. Please click on the above link to get to my web site, its worth your trip! Dear MotoeXotica.com But, the question is still not answered. Does that mean you are not paying for what the ad states the $195 fee is collected for? Specificly, will I have to pay for transferring the title and an registering the car after paying your imposed fee. I qoute: "we have now found it necessary to impose a $195.00 acquisition fee to each car sold in the United States. This includes title transfer and registration fees," As I read that you will be collecting this fee primarily for taking care of transferring the title and registering the car after my purchase(I read that quote as I would a list of ingredients on a can of food, more of the contents of the can (FEE) are made up of the first listed ingredient than the second ingredient, and so on down the list). Thank you again for the favor of a reply.

It means that a missouri resident will have to pay missouri sales tax. Out of state residents have to pay taxes according to their home state. Sorry for the confusion. Dan Hillebrandt www.motoeXotica.com In a message dated 5/25/2004 2:28:20 PM Central Daylight Time, hls30@comcast.net writes: Mr. Hilderbrant, Thanks for your reply! The pertinant part of your blurb is found under the second bullet under the title "Terms of Auction and Sale:", and reads as follows" "Any Missouri buyer must pay local MO sales tax and licensing fees. All other will do so in their home state." Here in Georgia, the payment of taxes and licensing fees is exactly what makes up registration-perhapse it is different in Missouri. William Stokes I have to give them credit for answering, and for answering honestly! But I still don't think I would buy from a seller who would play this game. Will

Engine Swap...
One other thought-remove the radiator, or you will probably have to replace it anyway~!::devious: Will

Pull them out as a unit(Yes Carl, I said it again!) It is faster to do it that way. Will

Carl, in my travels, I have probably seen bald knobs from all over-I just never looked to see them(go ahead-I know you can't pass this wide open space up!) This is a sacrifice offered to redeem myself for threatening to offer complete garbage for sale on ebay under the guise of selling a diamond in the rough! Will

Dont know what to buy or how to install
I hope you never do again! The '72 has 4 on/in/around each spring-talk about needing an upgrade! I am going through a '72, as you can tell from the helpers on the prings, it truely needs a suspension upgrade! Will

Not to worry Bill, that last reply was from a man who actually claims that he was born in Bald Knob, AR.i I guess that better than being born of a rooster poot! You keep right on with the jokes! Here is one people must have missed! http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=10657&size=big&password=&sort=7&thecat=500 Read the text!

280z with 350z headlights...
Nice Job on the photochop! Makes for an interesting picture-just don't do it in metal on this site! Will
-
check this out, 400+ hp...
Very Pretty car, but no wiper arm assys, headlight washers from a 280ZX turbo, and a neat(and large) drip catcher under the front spoiler! Maybe that's why the discription is so short!

Dont know what to buy or how to install
What makes you think it needs an upgrade? (sloppy handling, bouncing long after a bump, drifting at high speed, money burning a hole in your pocket...) What you should do depends on what the car is not doing that you want it to do. What part f the ride is the issue? Will PS, what ever you do , don't buy any of theses! http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=10657&password=&sort=7&thecat=500

someone got their inheritance
......Or somebody is willing to publicly inflate their value in hopes of selling a factory restoration for a little less money! Money moves, fees are paid, car stays in the same garage- medium to long lived ebay ids with little or no activity-hmmm! Sounds a little like a rooster poot to me! if the price keeps going up, somebody does not want to lose his car... Will

OK, someone good with photoshop, get rid of the fence, get rid of the other car, and get rid of the sunroof! What would be left should be a poster! Will

why the weight differences?
First, Welcome to the club! :classic: :classic: You will find our arcives very helpful-if you use them! Second, The simple answers to your questions are: More stuff, and yes. a brief explanation of the answers is: The weight comes from strengthening the frame, adding mandated safety and epa- parts (Catalytic conveter, bigger bumpers with shock mounts). beefier differentials, stronger electrical devices(alternator, more wiring, heavier fuel pump, sway bars, bigger radiator, ...) more emissions controls, etc Adding weight always changes performance, it lowers the hp/weigh ratio. lowering acceleration times. It changes the roll center and the moment of inertia of the car, affecting the handling. Will

Welcome to the Club and to Z-ownership! You will find a bunch of help, too much advice, and a healthy dose of praise! As Vicky said, post pictures, not only does that show the rest of us what you are doing, it also helps in the motivation department, (by allowing the rest of us to rib you when you slack off)and gives a point of reference to the pride you are putting in your car! Will Ps, forgot to mention the ocassional attempt at fun!

Rare stuff for Ebay
They are fully adjustable! You can tune these babies for your ride preference, from undercarriage on the ground for absolutely the edge of the performance envelope, to "Put that Z in the sky", for that 4x4 appearance. These are just exactly the thing to give your car that rally appearance with out having to get into the time, money and equipment of changing out the entire suspension. Now, I do have to say, with these properly installed, your car may be capable of things you are not, and because of the extreeme changes in performance that are possable with these tuning jewels, I am absolutely not responsable for what happens when you put your monster back under power and lett'r go. I have heard tell, that The General Lee was fitted with these before every jump-I don't know how much more performance you could ask for! Now, on the cobwebs, if the price is right, you can have the dirt these babies are caked in-I had plans for a garden, but for you, I'll throw it in! I realize this may be a deal that looks to good to be true, but I like you, and I want to do right by you-er, cash, postal money order, orwire transfer only. Ps these are heavy so shipping will prolly be about $85 a piece, and because of their fragile nature, I have to add $15 for proper packing materials, they just don't give away Priority mail supplies-do they. I just want to be sure you get as much enjoyment from opening you package as I will from stea-spending your money! Will

PPI - buying my very 1st 240z
I agree with 2ManyZs and Gee, the pictures cover only what you can see anyway, and fresh paint can cover problems for a while. Give the car a good once over where you have to get uncomfortable to see-check the floors from below-and under the carpet, check the spare tub, and the rails under the battery and outside just back from the wheels. Pull the doglegs, hatch trim, and the door panels and check inside for propper repair. The car is pretty, but will it stay that way if taken care of. or start rusting away? If you don't look for propper repair now, you will see how it was done in a year or so! Will

UltraSonic cleaning of hardware
I have tried putting them in the plastic basket, and suspending them with Fishing line and leader wire, and fine tunig the location. I have just done some research, and it looks like a L&R AG150R or and AG200 with heat would be the right machines for what I want to clean-parts and household things. What do you think? Will

UltraSonic cleaning of hardware
Mike, Thanks for the info, this one cleans jewelry-my wifes rings pretty well-at least she is happy with what it does-looks like the second tool that transitions from the workshop to the bedroom! No comment on the first! I will get a better unit, and contact The mfrs for suggestions. Will
