Well, when someone is a Datsun enthusist you would think that they would know how to...............:cheeky:

I have no proof or link at this time that would provide any info. However, I do recall reading something about the "Z" flag that Jason mentioned. Hmm.

Gees, I had no idea. Sorry about that.

"No limit". Scroll right above the clay model and it makes mention of this. http://www.zclubhungary.hu/EZHist.htm

yeah, just messing around. :squareeye Wish I had an answer for you.

just kidding.

....Ralph.

When my car was painted the bodyshop went ahead and painted the wipers too. It sure makes a difference. Great job!

Right, a lot of factors to consider......But you think you can do better than 25 mpg? Damn! :cheeky:

Yeah, it's not like our hoods are as durable as some of the older American cars. My friend's old Dodge Demon was a tank! Then again, Bono had plently of money to pay for the damages.

...maybe my mileage will improve after a valve adjustment.

Believe me, recognizing a black pearl 280 is only the beginning.

Could be....actually you're probably right. I forgot about the lack of stripes.

Yep. Wonder if the owner is lurking around here.:ninja:

yep, it's a 78 pearl black from what it looks like. Pretty cool. Hopefully he didn't scuff up the hood too bad after dancing on it.

Alright, this is what I understand to be the story of that car; Basically it won Best Work In Progress. It is rear engined if you can believe that. Funny thing is when it was announced as being a winner, groaning participants made their disapproval known. I'll leave it at that.

And they will be ready by this afternoon! Cross your fingers.

I'll keep my eyes peeled. Oh, and I'm watching this auction too.

Wow 5 pictures?....Nice. Yes, everyone else that was at MSA this year should check it out. Maybe yours made it. Even if you weren't there, it's a great collection as mentioned. I'll check out MSA's website to see if they have finally uploaded their new pics from this year.

.....Yeah, well me and everyone else. :squareeye Still, it's a great feeling to have your car's picture online. Just wanted to share. Here's the link for the rest of the shots. http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/article.cgi?section=events&article=zcarnatls2008

Wow, very amazing! Those caps look better than some wheels out there. Nice!

I've seen worse. Might as well save this one if you can. I've been "practicing" on my car for years with all the work I've put into it. I would hate to see all my energy transplanted into another project. Just seems like a waste. Know what I mean? It's your car, but it's not a lost cause. Good luck.

In my opinion part of the allure of the VZ's is historical. Aside from the obvious fact that it's a Z, what else makes these cars special is the fact that no other car manufactuer ever had a program like this. That in itself make these select 240's unique.

Great, thanks for addressing the chasis issue. That's good to know. If you have the money.................

Z31 is a great site. AZ-ZBum has put a lot of work into it, but try not to wizz him off.
