On the JDM Legends, they had a lot of trouble with the distributors. Are they that hard to find? Or doesn't Pertronix make a setup anymore? I've been out of the Z cars for a couple of years now and have started thinking of getting mine running again before it rusts apart. So, sorry if this is a stupid question.

What about Mark Miller? He's won class in Dakar, overall in Baja 1000 twice and 500, class at Pike's Peak, NASCAR Truck series (not sure if he won or not) There's may be some who fit the criteria in the Dakar crowd or the WRC crowd.

Sorry no pics of the vehicles. The '71 is currently in primer, originally Plum Crazy, it's been in the wife's family since '74 (they were friends with the original owners). It was a military order from Viet Nam and was ordered for street racing for when he got back to the world. If it didn't help it go fast, it wasn't ordered on the car. It's a 383 3spd (far as I've found out, 1 of 59). it hasn't been started in a couple of years as it's in storage. Hope to have it out and in the garage when we get the garage converted back into a car garage so it can be on the street next year. The Z was given to me several years ago. It has a lot of cancer but the floors and interior are good minus a driver seat tear. It also has a (I think) '75 L28/5 spd transplanted in it. The 7 was my daily driver for a few years until an apex seal started sticking. I'm dropping a streetported 12a into it (slowly). It's in a warehouse a buddy owns along with my truck (wife crashed and took out left front corner, in middle of fixing).

Great thread! I'm really envious of some (most) of you. Our garage is currently a winding down antique furniture restoration shop but we currently have a '72 240Z, '85 RX-7 in the middle of a 12a streetport swap, '71 Challenger R/T, '79 Ramcharger (trail rig), '92 F150 SuperCab 4x4 (wife's truck), '99 Dodge 1500 4x4 (my truck), '94 GMC 3500 extended wheelbase van (shop truck), '98 GrandAm (wife's DD) and '00 Corolla (my DD)
