Surfsup

yes i couldnt have done it without the help of all of you guys!!. and my dad.!! for helping me. ok the problem seems to be the battery that i bought. it was dead a new battery thats dead? that seems odd. but yeah got a new battery. check the sparkplugs there is a spark! :laugh: check the gas lines connected to the carburators, gasoline coming out! great . its cause there was no filter for one carburator! it needs to be warm. so my dad covered it and she rannnn!! like the beast she iss!!!! im so happy. yes mission successsful. good thing the fuel pump didnt mess up.. now time to buy the air filters for the carbs.:nervous:

picture time! ahah heres the rust inside the cockpit :cheeky:

thanks alot Rick. haha welp next week is my spring break and will uncover the wrath of the rust! hahah..sigh :sleepy: yeah ill post some pics as soon as possible:sleep: thanks !

yeah im gonna have to take some pictures, warning im no photographer. ha i really do suck. my plans so far. is to get her up and running, she was running but stopped so i gotta fix that, fix the rust, basically bring her back to a streetable and drivable car once again! then its time to go serious. its mostly stock. with some random pep boys parts

thanks. im gonna go check it out first thing tomorrow morning, i dont have work or school ... ill get back to you gary and mbc. hope it works.!! haha

ok so heres the problem. my car was starting 3 days ago. and it was working fine and dandy. i would start it up like 3 times a day. but then all of a sudden 2 days ago it died on me. symtoms are strong running but stop suddenly. what i did so far was.... changed the battery ... . i suspect it might be the fuel pump, distributor cap, fuel filter, spark plugs, rotor, etc... i might have to replace all of them... ok the wierd thing is that my choke doesn't work at all. there are no lines under neath. .. how it starts up now? the engine wants to run, it cranks and all, but i think something is stopping it.!! help please..thanks a lot everyone!! haha im starting to panic. well i tried searching, but i wanted to see what everyones opinion on this sorry .

. thats a nice self history, since you did it, ill do one too. 1985 -Born in Gardena, CA 1989- Moved to Carson, CA 1997-Present Moved to Torrance, CA

1050 to be exact haha. yeeapp shes a beauty. 73 z.

im about to buy a z!! after months of waiting and drooling and dreaming! i have come to one . yay!! im soo happy. i will be seeing it tomorrow. and driving it home! im soo happy. its a 73 z, clean title, has minimal rust, on the hatch latch area, and fender. but can be fix.!! tomorrow is the day i will be officially in the club!!!!! :nervous:

hey isnt that the z on maximum exposure? i saw that same looking z i think it crashed into some photographer at a rally event in aussie territory. the funny thing is the driver didnt even check what he hit, he went to the z first thing. then he aided the injured photographer. haha

thats a clean roadster.

im 21 years old NEXT!! haha

thanks. for all you're replies!

excellente haha

man. thats one hell of a deal! sigh i wish they have deals like that now.:sleepy:

thanks everyone for you're post. it really lifts my spirit. I thought i was getting ripped off if it was 2000 dollars. but i found out that it was just for an average one. :eek:

yeah you're right. im still looking for one. I want one where i can run it hard on the track and autocross it. do you guys think 2500 would be too much?

Welp, I couldn't find this thread so.. How much did you pay for you're Z? And what do you think too much is tooo much? :surprised
