Hamburgers & Cheeseburgers

Got my '77 out from a year long selfish hibernation. I love my 240 but I'm gonna have to cheat on the old car and get back in the 280. Rebuilt it then bought my first 240 and put the 280 on "the shelf" but after driving it an hour or so today it's back in play. I love those cars, different feel but a good comfortable one. Better brakes too. I have some ZX flat tops I'm thinking I'll put in under the N42 head. Should wake it up a little plus I'll definately get the 225mm flywheel lightened or maybe find an aluminum one. I think, my opinion!, that's the best bang for the buck. Having been raised up on quick revving motorcycles the aluminum I put in the 2.4 is like a motorcycle with a bit more protection.

I'm looking forward to my new project!  And of course I'll be posting plenty as I go.

[wheee!]

Exciting! Need pics!

Glad you're spreading the z love Cliff.  Make her pretty too!

I've got  a L28 on a stand and been pondering what I should do with it.  Maybe I'll get some inspiration from you.

I've just about done all I can to the 240 without spending big bucks that I don't have at the moment. The suspension needs replacing then rear disc but it drives and runs fine for me. sorta like heated seats, I can wear thermals if I want to drive when it's that cold.

The 280 was my first auto engine rebuild and it runs great but I've learned a lot about "the details" since I built it. So I'm going to dress up the engine a little better before I get the car painted.

I bought all new clothes for it but didn't get them tailored.
