gundee

This is an apology from me for not something I said or did but for for something I let slip by awhile ago from one of our members. It has been bothering me since that time. Often we differ much with each others governments ( ok all the time). But we do not have much of a problem at all with the people themselves. Even though I lived in England for 3 years, that is not my reason to comment. I have never been to France, but it is included as you will see. I'm no big student of history, so this is based mostly on my opinion alone. That said, I do not remember the thread but a member made a rude comment to you about WWII. I have seen this before elsewhere. He said something like .... and if it was not for the USA you would be speaking german right now. As you usually do, you graciously back off and say you are right, we really do appreiciate that very much etc. etc. Even though it may be true when you hear that from someone in the USA, It is rude to jab you with that. We forget we probably more so joined the war so that WE would not be speaking german. In other words keeping any conflict off our own soil. It was an unpopular decision for most here as we had other problems at the time. I do not know honestly what side I would have taken at the time. So when a person pokes you with that little reminder, they already know that you already know and appreciate it. Because of that it becomes an uncalled for rude personal attack if you have not first done the same. In short, you have a right to defend yourself if presented with that comment. In my opinion. Or I will do it for you.

Which ever way it goes I hope it is not even close so we do not have to go through the fiasco of the last election. Meanwhile the fraud continues down the road from me in Milwaukee, one of the most politically corrupt cities in the country. As it was in the last election. Election watchers have found over 35,000 voter registrations in question. Either the person does not exist, dead, convicted felon, illegal alien or registered in multiple locations. On other forms the address does not exist, or is a vacant lot, cemetary, billboard, sign, warehouse, garage, gas station, phone booth, etc. etc. The biggest problem is a person does not have to have an ID to register. The Mayor backed by our Govenor, both big time leftys, decided to require to prove who you are would "disenfrancise" too many voters. Isn't that an over used word. They also had printed 3 ballots for every registered voter. Unheard of until now. The reason was to make sure there was enough ballots as not to deny any one to vote. Right. More opportunity to stuff the boxes. Gore won Wisconsin last time by only a few thousand votes. Not to be believed. Had it been correct, it never would have gone to Florida.

Extremely deep I might add.

This guy sells used race tires in all sizes. Advertises 1/2 or greater rubber on used. Their phone is: 262-740-0180. They are located in SE Wisconsin. Don't know where you are located.

Tom, Did you run at the solo 2 run-offs this year?

I believe the vintage clubs as well as SCCA require safety glass windshields on all production cars. Plastic is usually permitted for rest of the factory glass openings.

That must be your yellow Z I saw on the SpeedSeekers site. Wish now I would have driven over there on Sunday. I was at their April event to see what it was all about. If I get some good "stickys" I will sign up for the next one. How did your front pads hold up?

The tail lights, marker lights, and the front parking are all on a seperate 20A fuse. The interior lighting are on their own seperate 10A fuse. And the headlights are on two seperate 10A fuses. So no they are not together in any way. I have no clue why the tail lights would melt the fusebox. This is for USA and Canada 240's only.

I also learned of Brasso in the Air Force. I always keep a can around. It works on just about every kind of metal. (lenses too.) I have also used 3M clear coat rubbing compound on my tail lenses. Worked great.

I polished my Z windshield with plastic polish I purchased to clean up the headlight covers on my Ford Taurus. It took off all the road film and wiper blade film. Now very smooth and shiney. Its not going to remove any pitting though.

Wiring and control of the headlamps, tail, brake, parking, directionals and side markers. 1 diagram for front and 1 for the rear. Note: for USA and Canada.

Sometimes this works. It has worked for me in the past. I took the car out on a straight road and made several had stops from about 65 mph. Do not lock them up but just short of that. Soon after the noise went away. If you have not tried that already.

This is the factory wire diagram showing only the lighting. This is an easier to read diagram for working on those lighting problems. Note: for USA and Canada.

Occasionally I will go to an auction if nothing much is going on. I went to a farm auction today because one of the items listed was a 2 door Datsun. No model listed. It ended up being a 77 280Z with no motor or trans. I do not have room for it or time for a project so I stuck around to see what it went for. No one bid on it starting at 50 dollars so he kept coming down until a guy with no front teeth raised his hand at 5 dollars. He probably will make it into some farm implement I can imagine. It had no rust on fenders, quarters, doors, rockers. Just rusty underneath. Too bad it was not a low serial number 240 I would have bought it. You never know.
