Welcome aboard...

Sweet Jesus...good for you! Note to self...Must find a way to put local Nissan dealer out of business...

Congrats on the addition...and on a wife who will do a spark plug run (how cool is that???)...

There is a Wick Humble in Chico, CA. Only one I could find. Details below if anyone is really interested in chasing him down. 1163 E 7th St Chico, CA 95928-5903 (530) 891-3000

No structural issues? I assumed you cover the holes with a center cap...

Found these on CL. I've never seen wheels with multiple configurations/drillings such as these. Is this for real?

Actually, go to carfiche.com to download factory service manuals for most series Z's.

Bart! Welcome to the club! You will find almost any information you need here. There are a number of experts (American and elsewhere) that should be able to help with any information you need. Use the search function at the top of the page if need information on a specific topic. If you can't find it, start a new thread in the right technical area and you'll usually get answers very quickly. And don't worry about your English... 1) it's fine, 2) we have a number of international members, 3) some of the English members are sometimes challenged by the language. Cheers!

Not blacked out but "redded" out. PO painted everything red...not my cup of tea and will be fixed, but here are a couple of shots for you. Strange...photos are coming up as links...

Dodge bullet dodged... Make sure you get a nice new shiny garage... Glad the Z made it.

If the body work on the '73 was good, that could be a steal...

Yeah...almost a year and a half late mind you... I do like the jmuble snetnece though...

NEWMAN!!!!!!!! Or you can use http://carfiche.com/fiche009/s30/ May all your parts be available...

More people move from EFI to carb's than vice-versa... Have fun bringing her back into shape...

My bad. Did a search for alkyd-amino enamel and came up with the above. Sorry...

a waterborne alkyd-amino enamel designed for general metal finishing. It provides a hard, tough coating at 2.3 lb/gal VOC without the hazards of flammable solvents.

Do it at the Z shop. Even a $1-2k premium would be worth it as knowledge of some of the challenges particular to these lovely vehicles will pay back in the medium/long-term. Get some references or some photos of work he's done. I'm sure if his shop is that replete of Z's, some members here will know his work. Just think how pretty she'll look.

I think those are the pre-restoration shots. He could have been more specific on the repairs, but they visually seem ok post-restoration. Still, a bit of a funny car. Why not spend the $350 on correct seat upholstery and look into a dash? Oh well.

How cryptic is that? :lick:

Yes. Same with the TT Supra Mk IV of the same era. There's a reason they are both holding their value and considered "super cars" by many. Gobs and gobs of consistent power. As for a TT build on an L6 not setup for it to begin with...monster job. Get an RB and you have Nissan power at least. I've even heard of some guys dropping a Supra 2JZ engine into for monster hp but if your not careful, the torque will pretzel the car. Dig around on HybridZ. It's all there. Good luck.

If this is who I think it is, he has been discussed at length here. Ebayer who changed his name. Generally questionable quality issues.

slick... "The exhaust note of the car speaks for itself"...

For pics, I highly suggest using a hosting site like photobucket. It will automatically resize for you. Just use IMG link provided once your photos are uploaded.

OMG....there's a disembodied leg under that car...that's not the right thing to use for a jack!!!!!!!!!!!

Hmm...not bad...always like an honest seller. You should see if you can get it up on a lift and get some shots of the underside. If it's moderatly clean, you could double your asking price. Good luck with the sale.
