Wazzamatta Gav? SuperGlue is not good enough for you? Mine is glued and I used heavy AL tape on the back for reinforcement. I didn't even know the light had this face plate untill I found one in a JY. Whattayaknow!

Damm!

IF <The Big IF> the claim of no rust is true, I'd say it's worth every penny of the 11.5K

When you find one, don't throw your old one away! A good motor shop can rebuild it. They are getting too rare to waste.

No - Ignore the cone you're dragging ... focus on the cones youv'e yet to hit.

I predict another long Thread. Be it Beer or Boobs, you can't denigh, Aussies and Yanks are brothers separated by the Equator. So pour me a Pilsner Urquel or a Sierra Madre Pale, Have a cigar, one of my best, and send out the dancing girls.

I'm looking forward to the time when Ernie is well enough to go looking for his new Z! Get Well soon. Your Z club bro's and Sis's will keep an eye out for pretty Texas Z car for you.

True, True and thank you. Most goods are marketed on a percieved value that differs greatly from the actual value. How much is a diamond worth really? Not a whole hell of a lot, but the market is flooded with propaganda to bolster the percived value through the roof. The Actual value of your restored 240Z? Ok, lets do the math. First, We got to find a good to great condition shell. We shop around and find a 72 in great condition - $7,000. Ok, We've got a good looking, good running car, but, that's not what we bought it for. We want a restored car. This one is loaded with compromises and P.O. jerry-rigs. We strip it down for real all-metal repair and Replated gear, Lots and Lots of NOS parts. If it's scuffed, replace it, running gear rebuilt. the best paint duplicating the Yokohama colol - Congrats, We just spent 30K more! Then, for some sick reason we decide to sell this labor of love. (Harry, I'm still wondering if you feel alright :-), And we price it at... 17 ~ 23. Something is seriously wrong here!

Not necessarly. If the blue plates were lost or damaged or kept bt the P.O., The whites would take their place. I'd offer to inspect it for you, but it's too far from L.A. for my comfort. Owning ONLY yellow Datsuns myself, I love the color!

keep an eye on collectorcartraderonline.com . I did a quick search and came up with these two. San Diego - 1971 Huntington Beach - 72 If you find one up in LA, I'll scout it for you.

George! Do you HAVE to use the words "skydive", "hit" and "Brick wall" in the same sentence? What's Aussie slang for a flattened bloke?
