Going to try and get my Z out this weekend

Featured Replies

If the weather continues to stay nice like it's been *Crosses Fingers* We got our first hard spring rain yesterday which really cleaned up the roads really good. woohoo :) Can't wait.

I will be starting mine this weekend as well. "Lets go baby, wake up!"

Ahh....you guys need to live here in Hawaii. We're running around all year in fact some of our club member's Zs are in the Auto Show at the Convention Center right now. :love:

YEa, it's time to crank up my "little one" too...been about 4 weeks. :nervous:

I'd LOVE to get my 280Z out this weekend, but unfortunately, it's front end is still on the shelf. The parts look good though! Just got wheel bearings and rack boots by UPS today, so this weekend is reassembly time. I can't wait!

Well I got her out today. I'M SOOO HAPPY. :D Man It's been a long winter. Sure felt great to get back in my baby and drive her again.

Yeah, I have to do my routine "Spring Tune Up" as well. Boy did she run great. She was as excited as I was to hit the highway LOL.

Well so much for starting the cars. It is currently snowing right now. The temperature went from 65F on friday to 32F today. WHY???

Glad your car is running well Jared. Hopefuly I will posting the same news soon.

Wow, you guys are pretty hard core. I could never park my Z for that long. I just could not live with my Buick Century for 4 months while the Datsun sits unused. My Z is on the road all year long with the exception of really bad snow or ice.

Bummer guy. It's 67 today here in Sunny Central Illinois! Too bad my car isn't road worthy yet :( . Suspension is half back in now - going for more this afternoon! Better luck later in the week - maybe our warm weather will come east your way!

After having my first two Z's rust into piles of oxide by driving them year-round (they were my only cars in my high school/college years), I just can't do that to my current 280Z. Since it was a california car, and has little rust, I just have to keep it that way - even it means suffering through a few months per year with no Z to drive!
