Nope. Too dark. the engine blue is a dark turquois (sp?). The air cleaner is a light "sky" blue, with a little green tint to it.

My gf with a new "JCP Works" mini and a 72' RHD
Victor Laury commented on v12horse's gallery image in Big Z Photo Collection
She IS a perfect fit for a Mini. Lucky you, Ben! -
My car's name? "Oh! Baby!"

That's a GREAT price for Longchamps! They are selling used at $850.00 USD over here! I'm looking for a 15X6 @+15 for my roadster to replace the English Revolutions. Vintage Japanese sports cars should NOT wear English rims!
-
They've been alternately tearing this car up, then, lusting for it on the Bluebird list. Either way, this auction has been an event to the crowd. Fun to watch.
-
Yes, That be them! See how much I know about S130'S? Little to nothin. Still think they are Z's, despite the local bias. If you Aussies and Kiwis want to see what for sale in Victor's neighborhood, check out recycler.com and collectorcartraderonline

It looks right and proper, right down to the SSS steering wheel.

I voted "I don't care if they download" But what weight does that really have? To those who do care, the very fact that they "Care" means more. Speaking only for myself, I've always been flattered when a photo of my car shows up somewhere without my knowing. If you look at Classicdatsun.com in the roadster section, scroll down to the "BRE Spook" blurb, there's my car, right after I installed mine. Les's partner, Dennis, put that photo up without my permission. He did ask me after the fact, and I just thought it was cool. Hey I maybe a nobody, but my car is famous!

Stephen, I know about the 84 300ZX anniversary model. But I was (and Bill too) speaking of the black and gold 280ZX (S130) anniversary model. as to which Anniversary it commemorates, I'm at a loss. What are these?

Got to admit Scott, You got soul, my brother. I get the same smile reading about your joy as I do when it's me pushing the throttle. Dam! That is poetry!

That bell housing is one of the parts needed to convert one of my roadster 5 speeds to a Z car 5 speed And Would allow me to use any of the 4 roadster 4 speed boxes I have laying around in my 521 pickup, if needed. Basicaly it's good for swapping A boxes around.

Ha! the one thing I wanted!
-
BilL is right. I see them for sale dirt cheap, with the statment, "Fuel Problem". Obviously, their Non-Z-Enthusiat owners balk at the price of an injection system overhaul and dump the car. My biggest problem with these cars iis the cloth interior. An old vinyl interior looks worn in, like a baseball glove, an old cloth interior looks like a rats nest.

Picking HLS30 Windshield Wiper "Nits"

Carl my 72 (june 72) U408 - trico blurb - 55R U409 - trico blurb - 55L In the same format as the top set in your photo except they are unpainted stainless -
Yumm! Triple 50's! Mikuni-ness -
I like them, and I know saying that is taboo on this site. Too bad it's so costly to ship them down under, as there's alway a bunch for sale here in California. Nice ones for 2K and under! I've been tempted many times. Lately, there's a real pretty 25th aniversery special addition on sale for a song. Think I can find an envelop big enough to mail that sweet coupe to ya? I wonder how many stamps it would take. Can't be too tough to change it's "Left-ist" steering. could it?

I've participated in a couple of their organized rides, and will attest to their "Z-ness" ? "Z-ethos" ? "Z-cology" ? Let's just say, these folks really love their Datsuns. You see thier cars at the shows, and they are impressive. Then you go on a ride with them, and see the same car pushed to the limit of adheasion on a twisty mountain road and then you know you're in with the right crowd.

The San Deigo Z Club Rocks!

Les at Classic Datsun makes this color up in spray cans. I have 2 cans on order right now. If you ask him, he just calls it "Air Cleaner Blue"

Senor X, The 6mm (10mm head) bolts are at Nissan 08360-61212

Aha! Spacers! Your'e right, that does open the choices up considerably. Yes, your boat anchors do look mighty sweet. But you're also right that lightening things up is a worthwhile pursuit.
-
Before anyone yells "Off Topic", I need to say that ANYTHING Jerry wishes to draw WILL get approved by me. -
You'll feel the difference! 22lbs of boat anchor! You could get even lighter if you'd go for 15'' TE37's, down to 12lbs apeice and less costly to purchase. As a matter of fact, after looking at the sizing chart, I don't think you've got much choice except for 15X7 at 0 TE37 Sizing chart

I use PB Blaster...... And a torch! I like to spray the penetrant on, then heat up the area around the fastener utill I see bubbles from under the fastener. then turn.

Very nice site! Comprable to Rob Beddington's Fairlady Registry site. Loved the Racing histories! Never knew about the Shelby effort before this! Well done. Hey! I can read French better than I can speak it .
