Who has the most rusty Z?
I would put "Orange '72" in the running. The passenger side behind the sail window had a hole in it so big I could almost put my fist through it. Sorry to say the cars passenger floor rail seperated and the car had to be towed away. On a happy note, someone bought the car. Last I heared, they had plans to rebuild her. Love for the Zed! Here is a pic of the panel.

Water in the heater fan??
I have had a phantom leak in my Zed after it rains or during the night when the dew runs off the car. I could not figure out where it was coming from. Last night before driving to work I turned on the heater fan to defog the windshield. I had water spewing out of the sides and top of the fan assembly. How does water get in there? Can a fix be done to stop the water from entering the fan?

I don't know how old the brake pads on my car are (the car stops fine and no squeeling...yet), just wanted to know if you should get your rotors surfaced before you install new pads. Thanks.

Driveshaft Removal
What I had done was put the rear end on jackstands, chocked the front wheels and left the transmission in Neautral so you can spin the shaft when you needed. That helped a lot, but it took some time, unless you get a 3 foot extension for a socket wrench? Have you tried to spray some WD-40 on the nuts? That might help in breaking some of the road grime and possably rust that might have collected there over the years. Good luck, bro.

Thanks you everyone for the comments. K.I.T.T. is my first model at age 9. I am looking for a Charger to turn into the "General Lee". I also think that Lindburg might sell a kit. I will have to look.

Nope, I have 6 of them. Look in my gallery, you will see that I am working on a Blue one. I call it the "Wangun Midnight" from the game.

Yes, it is a pinewood derby car. I made it when I was 14. Did not compete much, but I did win a ribbon for craftmanship.

In Forza, I have found that when you mod the 240Z(X) with the RB26 engine, you can mod the engine for more HP when it is in the car. The hadling on the car however leads something to be desired. I have to tweek with the LSD in order to keep the car from spinning it's tires through 2nd gear. Forget about cornering, the arse end always slides out. (alot of countersteering and power overs) I'm also sorry to say that you can not put bigger rims on the car. I'd rather keep the Wat's she comes with. I am playing True Crime right now, I'll have to keep an eye out for one and let you know.
