He is a friend of yours? Tell him (or you) CONGRATULATIONS!

I had my wife hide the check book......that car was beautiful!!! A new cad bolt set from Eiji at Datsun Spirit.....new stickers from Mike at Banzai and some elbow grease and the car would have been top 10. I wonder if the new owner wants to part with the mud flaps? :stupid:

The ad says SOLD $24,500.00. I guess that shows that the right color and condition and year still amount to good money! I agree with the buyer "It is worth the price". Guy

All you need to do to replace the sending unit is to tap off the lock ring.....remove sending unit and O ring. Slide in new sending unit with new O ring and tap on lock ring......hook up wires. If reversing the wires fails, check for current to unit. If that fails order new parts (readily available) and install.

Randy....All of the hoses can be purchased at your local NAPA. Snip a piece of the old hose for each size to take with you. While you're at it do the same with your fuel lines. I always buy 3 or 4 times the length I need for reserve. Guy

Speak up.....I didn't catch that!!!! :stupid:

Isn't yellow a fairly rare color? I love the color. I remember back in the 70's when it first came out in late 71-72. It was a great color addition to a fleet that somewhat lacked for color choice. I didn't see many on the road and I lived in Atlanta at the time.

Wow.....Two great drivers......Two great guys. Good luck to both of you! Hope you get dialed in Steve.....make it a good race!

http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23919 If no one else........Do it yourself. Bruce's thread above illustrates that you can do it yourself, and since I own the dash (It's in my white 70) that he restored I can tell you it's still beautiful! :classic:

Great job Andy......the 205-50-16's really handle nice. I've got 'em on my white 70. You don't get the travel that you get on the 225-50-16's.

I love 919 yellow also.....If I didn't own four already, that car would go in my garage! BEAUTIFUL!

Never ceases to amaze me how these special cars keep showing up. I just recently bought my 73 with 41,000 original documented miles......the owner sold it so he could purchase another same color 73 with 6,000 original documented miles. Wow!

Yes....It's been over 2 years....all new parts, emblems, rubber, seats, engine etc. etc. are ready to go in. He's getting down to the nitty gritty.....looking forward to competing with Jeff Mader in Savannah next year.

A few more

That's what Carl said....one entry!

Ditto that.....I like to know if any of our members won prizes.

Hi OZ.......No it's not a 4 speed auto tran and Yes it is a 77 280 5 speed! Good hearing from you mate! Guy

Thanks DK........Guy

I'm getting ready to do a swap on my 73 automatic to a 4 speed transmission. Does anyone know if the driveshaft for the automatic and 4 speed are the same? If this is covered in another thread, please let me know as I couldn't find one. Thanks Guy

Final block sanding is finished. Should have color on her any day now.

Super video.......You should shoot it when the leaves are changing in the Fall except you'd have too much traffic!

And if Carl was correct in what he told me, you took the top prize.......right Jeff?

John.....You're right.... L28 flat-tops are better.....use the flat tops from the later L28 blocks. Put new flat top L28 pistons on your L24 rods......never ever take an old piston off of one rod and put that same piston on another rod. However, if you can find L28 rods with flat top pistons from another engine, you can re-ring the pistons and go with that. Good Luck!
