I suspect any post with hookup in the title will get some attention from this bunch. For those of us attending ZCON in Memphis, we need some way to easily contact each other, arrange meetings and introductions, ...etc. I propose we look at the Push-To-Talk app called Zello, available for Android and iPhone. My local club is getting underway with it for local cruises and the caravan trip to Memphis. I've gone on Zello and set up a channel named "czcc", password "classicz" - everything in lower case. It requires a verified email address to join, no other restrictions. When you join the channel, you'll get to see other users already registered to it and reque…

I know Blue started a ZCON 2016 thread almost a year ago but its time to get a fresh nose count on who is going to join the festivities in Toronto 3 months from now. About a dozen or more members of this forum were able to shake hands, share stories, and enjoy some great fellowship in Memphis last year; we need to begin planning for the same (or better) get-together in Toronto. I'll kick it off - my event and hotel reservations are in place. Are your's??? Z'ya there! Adding attendees as they post below: Captain Obvious (Bruce) zKars (Jim) Blue (Philip)

A great event this year! The weather was hot and so was Team Wodopian and their green 260z. Mike W took home first place in modified 260/280 and....... Best in Show. Nice job Mike! Team Wodopian's 5 man crew were sporting matching pit crew 260z shirts. All members of Mike's family from far and wide. First place in stock 240's went to Zup's beautiful flat top powered 73. Big congrats Jim! Jim's 3 person crew also has matching Zup approved shirts but Zupette & Tavish did not arrive in time to qualify for full team credit. Scott M. took 1st place in the hotly contested 280 stock division with his very clean red car. I think it was his new seats that p…

We were very proud last night to see our members do so well at this years ZCON! I am sad to report that Jim Arnett is actually a vacuum and not human (as demonstrated by how he cleaned up the place). Mike and his son Alex warmed up by taking a muscle car award at a competition in Texas before coming to ZCON! Those two are a first class tag team! There are a few reports of temporary blindness caused by opening their hood in the bright sunlight of Memphis. I hope their insurance covers this! Zup's minty low mileage 73 won a well deserved award! Even though it was silver covered, it was golden yesterday. Lot of photos were taken by others that will show up soon. Th…

My brother is the event manager for the show and told me today that he needs a couple nice cars for the Invitational Display. The cars are all kept inside and roped off from the public and the building is locked at night. If your car is selected there is no cost to show your car and you will get two passes to get into the show for all three days. He's looking for classic imports of any kind but they must be very nice, very rare and/or very interesting. For example he's had a Datsun fire truck, Scarab Z, custom turbo 260Z, a couple 240Z race cars, etc. Other cars that I remember are a 5.0 Volvo wagon, a 1966 Volvo P1800 with almost 3 million miles, some TV cars, etc. …

Datsun Spirit owner Eiji Hosomi paid me a nice compliment yesterday at the ZCON judged car show. I was grabbing some much needed shade and rest after the first round of judging (my inaugural participation) and Eiji came up and asked if he could ask some questions about my restoration. He's had a lot of problems with the aftermarket door seals and wanted to know how I handled it. I told him about Kia Sportage seals - either new or from salvage, and you should have seen his eyes when he operated the doors and found them closing so smoothly. We also looked at my innovation on the hatch outer seal and he was surprised at how easily my hatch closes with the PRP repro inner…

Hi, ClassicZCars community. Our 21st annual Z-Car show has a new date and location. It’s Saturday, May 14th at Anaheim Stadium. We chose a different date so as not to conflict with other shows, and a larger space to accommodate more cars. In addition to Z-Cars from 1970 to 2016, we’re also inviting Nissan Skylines, GTRs, 510's, and Roadsters. Best of all, entering one or more in the show is free. This is a “thank you” to the Z community for all your support over the years. We have a weekend of special events planned. More information will be posted soon. In the meantime, check our online store for show details at thezstore.com. Thanks.
