Based on this persons new thread today and the mention of $35,000, I'd say that it will not go to anyone. Chris

Hi Tim, Welcome to the club. Your pictures show a very promising and FUN project. Congrats on the find. Chris

Don't leave, at least we know you are somewhat Z involved now. Its everyones space, to some its more. Respectfully, Chris

Ben, I don't speak for anyone but myself, but you keep the comments coming okay? Not childish in my opinion. Chris

Hey Bill, My father in law told me this one once...I'm sure he heard it somewhere. "If it's got tits or wheels, it'll cost ya" Chris EDIT: REMOVED MUSTANG COMMENT DUE TO PM'S FROM PONTIACGUY

I like the profile and rear views. But I dont know about the front yet. Chris

Hey TomoHawk, you been hitting the sauce again? I see a Porsche leading a 510. Maybe I'm on a different feed than you huh? Chris

Okay, I bit on this just for the heck of it. Went to the link and read the article. It all sounded pretty good till I read this line..... "For instance, a SMOOTH flow of air into a carburetor or injector is far better for mileage than turbulent air. Turbulence is bad." Ummm.....I don't know too much about injection but I don't think air flows through injectors. I'm now questioning the author of the article. FWIW, Chris

In general I'd love to have the car but those wheels would have to go. YECK!! Thanks Ben, always nice to see another true Fairlady! Chris

I dont think anybody is going to convince cremmenga not to speed. I wish the moderator would kill this thread. Its a waste. The bottom line is this, IF you ever really get this car built (which I doubt ever happens), THEN you go out and splatter yourself all over Buffalo County, NO ONE here will really miss you. Personally I think you're head is full of milo. And I invite you to come to Lincoln with your badass Z car and prove to me that you're not all talk. I'll even take pictures and put them up on this site for you with a big sign saying I was wrong. Chris Abbott Lincoln

The look of the car is my main draw. They are simply beautiful. Chris

Bill, see post #7. Those are Patrols. As is this. I'd love to have one.

Thanks for the pics Ben, I think most car enthusiasts wont mind the thread. My Dad used to have a 1951 Willys step side pickup with a 327 V8 conversion. That was a unique vehicle. Chris

I thought the car looked and sounded great. Someone has got to find out who's car it was. Kudo's to them. When the guy opens the passenger door to let her get in, I noticed the dash had no cracks. Could have been capped but it still looked good. And there was a shot of the passenger side and all the stainless trim around the door and quarter window looked great as well. Aside from the car being in the rain, it appeared to be a fine example. I liked the short dialogue about the engine and carbs when the two first met and he had the hood open for her to look at. An engine shot would have been great at that point but I realize it wasnt about car development but character development. Hooray for the Z! Now we need a show where the main character is a good person and drives a Z regularly on camera. Wishfull thinking! Chris

I'm not sure what you mean here Bill. Chris

It was a small load so he did it by hand!

Anybody else want to help me on this.

My county calls it the "Junk Vehicle Ordinance" Quote--- 10.42.110 Keeping of Unregistered, Wrecked or Junked Vehicles It shall be unlawful for any person in charge or control of any property within the city, whether as owner, tenant, occupant, lessee, or otherwise, to allow any non-operating, wrecked, junked, or partially dismantled vehicle to remain on such property longer than thirty days. It shall be unlawful for any person in charge or control of any property within the city, whether as owner, tenant, occupant, lessee, or otherwise, to allow any vehicle which has been unregistered for more than thirty days to remain on such property End quote-- There are ways to get around this. Put the vehicle in a shed, or get a "Hobbyists Permit". "A hobbyist permit is for the restoration or repair of up to 2 vehicles. The location of the vehicle must be the same as the applicant's address. Obtain an application from the Lincoln City Clerk's Office, or download an application from their InterLinc website. Fill out the application and file it with the City Clerk. Pay $50.00 fee for each vehicle. Permits are good for 180 days" I took my extra Z's out to a friends acreage and put them in a barn. Up on blocks to try and keep the critters out of them. If you live in a more well to do area, they'll crack down pretty hard. If you live in a more blighted area, they don't care at all.
