Zrush

Nor did they mention the No-Hair types either Vicky

The only 350Z I want is an original Scarab built by Brian Morrow. I know, I know, it's just a V8 Z to some, but I still want one. I'll end it here because this could anger some Vicky

Glad you had a nice day Chris. I'm wondering how that Mr. Clean Auto Dry Wash will work. Says it's guaranteed to leave NO spots. I was thinking of buying one. Go wash your Z and let us knowLOL Vicky

It's a sports car, paint it yellow! Or.....any color you what. Vicky

"Big Sam" would be my replication of choice. You can read all about this famous Z race car on zhome.com Vicky

Thanks mperdue. Guess I should have tried a further search:stupid: I feel like a doofus. But now I have the answer to my question:classic: Vicky

I've seen gear ratios from 2:56 up to 6:50 in a racing supply catalog. Can someone explain what the ratio is? Like for example, 4:11, does that mean for every 4 rotations, another gear, spline, etc. turns 11 times? If this question has been answered before I'm sorry, I tried looking it up but couldn't find anything:ermm: Vicky

Zhead, I beleive those are Weld Racing Draglites. My husband has a set on his red Z in our gallery. They weren't cheap, had a hard time finding a set to fit the Datsun bolt pattern. Summit sells them...........but for a Z, I'm not sure. We ordered ours from a local tire and wheel store. Vicky

Not on the dash, you'll ruin the beautiful lines of the famous Z dashboard IMO. Glove-box is my choice. Be like Monster Garage where the car must appear to be stock...........but is far from it:classic:

I love itLOL Well put!!!!

Simple, Z = Rock & Roll and ZX = Disco. Which would you rather have in your "collection"LOL 'nuff said

I've always loved those, but I don't love 'em enough to pay $600.00 for them. The guy that did all the polished stainless under our hood could fabricate those for less than half the price. I kinda thought they made a Z look like it was wearing a pair of glasses anyway Vicky

Sorry for you and you Z. That's an awful crack on the front of your Aero kit. Did you not put some kind of a bar behind it? I think that same or simular front kit is on my husband's 77 280Z but he put a quarter inch bar filled with play sand behind the front and rear aero kit. The fiberglass is not resting on the bar, probably a half inch gap all around, so vibration would not become a factor. Our classic insurance (Hagertys) company would not cover any vintage car that didn't have some sort of bumper/bar behind the aero kit. If you had more protection in your aero kit, obviously your hood would not have sustained as much damage. Something to think about when you repair your Z. Just my .02 cents and good luck with your repairs:classic: Vicky

1. Grab your calculator (You won't be able to do this one in your head) 2. Key in the first 3 digits of your phone number (Not the area code) 3. Multiply by 80 4. Add 1 5. Multiply by 250 6. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number 7. Add the last 4 digits of your phone number again 8. Subtract 250 9. Divide number by 2 10. Do you recognize the answer? Vicky

Wow. I just gave away a 1978 280Z that was in better shape than that one. I felt bad asking anyone to pay for the car:cry: The rust Gods have blessed that Z my friend:devious: JMO

Don't know if anyone has done this but years ago I would put a quart of Marvel Mystery oil in the crankcase and run for about 100 miles before I changed oil. It use to clean all the gunk and mung from the engine and inside valve cover. Don't know if this acceptable in today's engines but it worked in my "74 Olds Omega :ermm: This was way before my Z days. Scott

Pretty nice little red Z. Engine bay needs cleaning up. Overall the price seems fair. Vicky

Most definitely!! It's like instant road side assistance via the computer. What a great group:love: Vicky

I beleive that says "Z Docs" on the building. If so, that place is over in Tampa. Never seen that one and hope I never do. Where does the redneck put his gunrack in a Z? Idiots :tapemouth Vicky

"Carbage". I love that term! Those vehicles represent folks that have way to much money and time, but very little gray matter. I thought it was against the law to litter highways with trashLOL Oh well, to each his own Vicky

There's a superb custom body shop up the road called Time Machines. They specialize in "hybrid muscle cars". I bring this up because we were at a show and they had a '68 Camaro on display with a Viper engine AND Viper interior! I should have taken pictures. Fantastic automobile. Strickly a World of Wheels showpiece. Seems the Viper engine is what machine heads are putting into alot of cars now a days (at least around here). My (not my husbands) motto is everything in moderation. $50K, hah, I've got alot more than that in the 77 280Z and I still have the L28! Keep playing the Lotto!!! Vicky

Both. But changing tires and rims is a manly thing. Unless I had the Hulk to lift the car and undo the bolts, the pie plates stayROFL (Scott did listen to me when I said I wanted the 77 painted red) Vicky

Ben Scott has informed me where the topy dates are on the steel wheels. I highly doubt they match the production date of the car, but you never know, I'll check all 4 tomorrow. I have to pop the hub caps off. I hate hub caps and I wanted to change them but my husband said no. That's the way they came from the factory and that how they stay. Vicky
