Looks like I get to pout on another dash cap!! plus I have a rebuild original stereo with tape deck ready to put in complete with pre-outs to drive a new amp and 6x9's in the rear trim panel. -
I am not big on custom wheels so I need to find originals or ones closer to them than these drag race ones. They a bit bland and show no movement when driving. -
Will need some repair on the drivers seat and redo some of the silver gray vinyl on the inside as usual it has turned some kind of ugly copper brown from the sun! Wait! I love the sun, just not on my cars!! -
After almost two years without a Z car, I now will be taking delivery on this one next week! Rust Free Arizona Car with just over 100 grand on her. Will need the TLC any 30 year old car would need but in my eyes its a Beauty. At 6'5" and 285lbs, I would love a 240 0r a 260 like anyone, however I need the extra little room! ! -

This is a photo just before loading on the rig to deliver to me. -
Actually I did not try any of the 240/260 at all, just the 280 and zx. I had a good friend who bought a New 1972 240 and we used to go riding in it, all I remember is how jammed we were in the car, it seemed to me to be narrower than the 280, however I dont know that for a fact. I have plenty of leg room in my zx but the pedals are so far forward that even to use the accelerator my right knee is up by wheel. I dont care about that, a somewhat great man once said, if its comfortable then its not a sports car, i assume this will apply to a (280zx) zx even if its more or less a GT and not quite the same spirit as the orginal 240.

Yes it is a ZX seems I forgot that part! It seems all the zx's i looked had this problem. "A chimp at the wheel"
Thanks for the reply, except I dont have a vinyl headliner, its cloth. Thats why I was wondering what I could re glue it with, The 3m stuff is good, just did not know if it would work with cloth. I asked at the local auto stores, ( no pep boys anywhere in my entire state that I know of, or close states either!) they did not know. I think I will take to an upolstery shop and forget about doing it myself as you suggested. Thanks again. Lookin for Stacy's mom.
After looking for almost a Year I purchased my first Z. I am 6'6" and needed one in good condition and with automatic as there is no room for me to lift my left leg up to a clucth!! Youch! However as I looked at about 7 Z's all but one had the same problem, the headliner was falling off the inside top! the car i got has only 90,000 miles and was garaged for most of its life and... yup! the headliner rests on my head.... What can I do to get this back up? Its in great conditon just dosnt belong on top of my head! I assume it has to be glued but It looks like the cloth has actually detached from some sort of backing, but cant tell without removing it all. Need some more information before I take off on this. Can this be glued back up? what kind of glue will actually hold this in place? Thanks for the help! "...its the "Z" all the bad boys want!"
