Another Wa St Z owner

[cglomstad]

Hello,

I am 19 and just bought my 77 280z on Mach 22, 09. Lots of miles but strong clean engine with newer injectors, brakes, brake lines, clutch, and interior. Taking care of some minor rust issues. Will need some body work and new paint but a great driver. Am learning to drive stick. Dad is patient.

Welcome! This is a great site. The people are a hugh help and great to chat with about your car. Post some pics of your ride man!

Thanks for the welcome. Hopes this works for pictures.

Welcome aboard...

Mach 22 eh? Assume a freudian slip...but if your car also goes that fast...well bought...

[cglomstad]

That's funny. Nice catch. I hope I haven't unconsiously set my hopes too high. But then again speed was not my goal. A unique daily driver was. The speed is in the garage behind one of the pics. That's not a daily driver.

LOTS OF MILES on a 280Z = 300,000+

Looks like a nice clean 280Z worth taking care of and sure to be enjoyable to own. Now save some money up - and plan a trip around America early summer when you turn 21... Stay off the Interstates as much as possible -and stop for a day or to in many interesting spots.. Take a good friend with you to share the experience with... This is an Amazing Country...

good luck,

Carl B.

Thanks Carl. I am only at 160,000 so guess I should be looking forward to the next 160K. Sounds like I have some catching up to do.

Good find it seems . Welcome to the group. With Summer just around the corner you will have some great weather for some cruising. Where are you in Wa.? There are several Z drivers in Vancouver Wa. And there is a Z club in Seattle. In fact the Wa. Z Club is coming down to my neck of the woods for a cruise up the Columbia Gorge toward the end of this month. I live just West of Portland. Good to have you aboard.

Thanks Gary. I would love to see some other z cars up close. Right now trying to solve leaking hatchback. By the way Gig Harbor is near Tacoma.
