welcome to the gang.... you'll find a lot of knowledge with the guys on this site (and gals). search the forums for answers and if you don't find an answer post a question to the applicable forum. Get that 280ZX fixed up and I'll be willing to bet you sell the Eclipse because you don't drive it anymore. I'd suggest signing up for the email list but that tends to be geared more toward the earlier Z's but you might catch some help there.

Was she on a phone, applying makeup or just not paying attention?

I don't want to make anyone look stupid but come on.... what do we all love to drive? A coupe!!! meaning 2 door....... just because the car has been reduced to half it's size, doesn't make it a 2 door. Possibly a caddy. I can't decide if those are hubcaps or the real deal (the front one is still on which makes me think it's the real deal but they look crappy to me). My vote is for a Caprice or Delta 88. I'm leaning on the Caprice side. that rear driver's side window looks farmiliar.... I think I've looked out that window a time or two in an old cop car.

The old man has one on his 71....... it hasn't seen the light of day since the early 90's (I'm scared to go look at it). It was great for pulling a small trailer of trash to the dump, a tiny uhaul trailer with a piano in it and stuff like that. I'd do it if I needed something to haul a few 2x4's from home depot or something like that but I don't think I'd be brave enough to hook up a boat to it.

:classic: Makes my day to know everything worked out!

I love my wife but she's due in 7 weeks and moody....... I find myself spend more time with the Z just to stay out of trouble!

Hey guys..... can anybody answer this???? I'm the one that sold these and I want to make sure Victor doesn't get jipped. I had bought them off EBay in November, never got around to installing them and I'm trying to clean out the house to get ready to move. I'm not having any luck getting touch with the guy I bought them from so I can't get the part numbers.

Get me the shotgun Martha..... I gots ta shoot me an idiot. There oughta be a law!

At least one of your local shops should have a 3 row 280Z radiator that will fit nicely. The cost here is right around $130. You may have to remove the tie down hooks to get a perfect fit. You can also order one from www.carradiatordirect.com. I'll be doing the same thing in the next week or so.

I gotta get me some of that bling bling Gold plating, anybody know where I can get some????? ROFL ROFL

Make sure you check your local and state laws before doing that.....It is illeagal in a lot of states. I got nailed by a cop for driving my first Z without a bumper. Of course I was 18 at the time and the stereo could be heard 200 yards away... all he could do was give me a ticket for the bumpers.

Take your time and recover well. it's great to see your name on the post again!!!!

I'll take the carbs, I'll pm you for details

My prayers are definately with him!

It's not going to be the high cholesterol and triglycerides that are going to give me a heart attack, it's going to be the fact that Carl and I are in agreement on something other than the Z being incredible! :classic: Carl, I have to admit, I couldn't decide what your reaction to this post was going to be and I couldn't wait to hear it.

Moore is a sick one........ Everything he does has the biggest liberal slant to it that could possibly exist. He has been kicked off of our College campuses, booted out of public areas and has been asked by numerous Americans to leave the country. Yes I have offered to help pay for a one way ticket to France for him providing he never comes back. Whew, with THAT said, I do realize there are 2 sides to every story and the truth is somewhere between what this idiot says and what his far right wing counterpart might say. PLEASE, before you take any of his "statistics" for gospel check out one of the many sights that tries to keep him truthful: www.moorewatch.com

Thanks for posting the names Carl..... I hope everyone says a prayer or takes a moment of silence for each one of these fine individuals and the families they left behind.

A moment of silence as it appears we have lost another brother to the modern day advances od Turbo's and Fuel Injection. hehehe, with that said, I'm glad the car moves! good job!

Dude, step away from the '72. And remind me, should we ever meet that you can not drive my orange 72, even if it is silver at the time we meet! Welcome to the club, glad to hear you pipe up and introduce yourself. Aside from living the land of fruits and nuts, you are in the land of good 240Zs out there in Cali-land. Good luck on your search!

I think I voted the same way Ben did ROFL you shouldn't have given us the choice.

Guess you have to have Mike change your nickname to Zmecruise. ZmeFly is just too much of a stretchROFL Seriously, it does look nice and one day we'll pull you back into our worldROFL

Ok, the looting happend, just like it happens here when a College or Pro team wins the end of the season (Basketball, Football, whatever) in LA, Detroit, Tucson I still haven't figured that one out) and a host of other places. Should the Commanders of the Military have stepped in? Maybe. At the point the looting started did they know how the Iraqi citizens were going to react? They thought and hoped that the reaction would be appreciative at what the forces were there to do. I honestly think some of the forces on the ground (the troops, not the leaders) were in Military mode that they felt the looting was "justified" by the citizens in being rebelious against Saddam. The inside jobs probably happend beforehand, when the leaders of IRaq wre lieing to the citizens and then running for cover. Kind of When Clinton took Air Force One AFTER he was no longer President and looted the silverware. A far as my comment about wounding the looters. We had been conditioned from day one, to expect civilian casualties, it had been talked about and discussed and we had been promised that it would be kept to a minimum. We had not been conditioned to expect the troops to outright wound civilians. I can see the headlines from the leftist media "Marines cause Iraqi Citizen to lose limb because he fired a shot at him for stealing a vase out of a museum" Followed by "Marines stop Iraqi Citizens from taking back what they should be allowed to have." The looting is one of those no win situations for this side of the fence. If we had stopped it, we would have been chastised, we let it go and now we are being chastised. On the same note, I've heard in the news that many of the museum items are being returned! I'll bet that has never happend in any of the what appear to be annual lootings in the States. Cultural this, Cultural that, I enjoy visiting the local Museum, and other Museums whenever I'm on the road, I enjoy the theatre and I believe that "Culture" has a place everywhere. I also think that we'll find out that most of those antiques had been stolen or looted, hell they could even be fake reproductions for all I know. The real stuff could show up in one of those walled in houses with millions of dollars that Saddam was keeping for himself. Again, at the point the looting began, I believe that the military were in different modes and trying asses the situation. It could have been assesed that this looting was being done as a rebelious act against Saddam.

These ehings are getting harder and harder to find. I guess a guy in Canada has them but his prices are somewhere over the $350 mark if I'm correct. I do have front set that I'd be willing to part with, I've decided that I'm going to end up going with either coil-overs or a stiffer ride. email me and let me know if you are interested in the front set. dnklovstad@msn.com

You said it Mike...... I can just see the news if we had wounded even one looter. Tanny, there's still hope for you yet :classic: The right side is a nice place to be ZwolleY, ZwolleY, Zwolley... Ann Richards Deserves all the negativity she gets, If Molly Ivins ain't crying about something, she ain't happy and Bill Moyers.... well if he was any good he wouldn't be hiding out in the not for profit world of PBS. Before this thread gets any uglier let me say this........ as probably one of the most conservative people on this board, I'd like to point out that Conservatives with one notable selection (slick Willie, we hate him) do dislike the liberals. It's what makes this thing work. What frustrates and infuriates me is that it seems that on the Liberal side of the fence, they HATE all of the conservatives. I just don't get it. As a pointless side note, to what is probably becoming a pointless thread, my best friend of 20 years is just about as far out there on the left as I am on the right..... these are topics we stay away from. Of course I think he is coming around as this week he mentioned that he is ready to leave the not for profit world and earn a respectable wage. As far as who fell and who didn't, I'm pretty sure every President made a blunder or two, they are human afterall.
