grannyknot Posted October 18, 2012 Share #1 Posted October 18, 2012 I got the afternoon off so headed out to look for thin foam and vinyl to restore the flaps in the heater box.I went to a auto upholstery shop and got a cold look until I mentioned the 1970 240z that I am working on, the guy changed his tune mid sentence and headed upstairs to grab some material, came back down gave me exactly what I was looking for no charge. Actually he did have a price, he asked me to come by after the car was finished to show him the final restoration, " No problem sir, I'll be happy to ".

Mikes Z car Posted October 18, 2012 Share #4 Posted October 18, 2012 I was buying wipers at an auto parts store last weekend and the salesman followed me out to the car when I mentioned the 240Z I was buying them for was out in the parking lot.

Oiluj Posted October 20, 2012 Share #5 Posted October 20, 2012 So I'm buying a new commute car, a Subaru Impreza hatchback. When chatting with the salesman, I found out he is an old sports car guy, (mostly Porches), so I told him about my 240Z. He asked if I'd bring it by for him to see. Did that this morning, took him for a ride and let him drive it. He loved the car and had a grin that almost went from ear-to-ear. He took some pics of the car with his phone, and asked me to take some pics of him in the car. Got a call from him this afternoon thanking me for the ride. He had already sent the pics to his car buddies...

Bonzi Lon Posted October 20, 2012 Share #6 Posted October 20, 2012 After my guy finished up on the complete exhaust system I gave him a ride, he was very impressed. Now anytime I go into his shop he is right there with "what can i do for you today", no matter what he is doing.Bonzi Lon Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/44704-z-breeds-good-will-always-mention-you-are-working-on-a-z-car/#findComment-404753 Share on other sites More sharing options...
