I gues i'll be p[aying $450 a year for my insurance when I start driving it. sigh....

I think you have to keep the car in the garage, too. Most companies require that

Why not hook up thee flashers to the subwoofer amp? Remember the old disco lights that changed color & danced with the music? forget the name.

The signatures idea is a good one tho. Better than "Datsun"

First you said you had both signaturees, and then you posted two attachments, so I figured those were them. The perspectives made them look different. the sun visor one was better, but it won't be easy to isolate it.

Sorry, bud. Open containers aren't allowed in cars. Drinking and driving isn't allowed, either.

Which is Mr. K., and which is Mr. Matsuo?

Which is which.? thx

Yeah, I think I might like to try itto see if it would work.

Do you have those available in plastic relief, gold plated for the dash? I don't really care for the "Datsun" or even "Paninfarina".

Right now, I have a quarter from 1978 my mom found the day I picked up my car. I GOOPed it to the dash and had good luck since. I bet there's somebody with a little Jesus figure or other thing. But get serious.... I like the "Mr. K's signature" thing. You vcould easily make a casting, if you had Mr. K's signature. Gold plate it even! Vinyl even for the fender or rear window! Anybody got a pic of Mr. K's signature?

How about a bobblehead bambikiller shifter knob?

If you could put one item on the dash as a decoration, what would it be? I think I would get either a golden bobblehead tiger, or a Taco Bell bobblehead dog.

You might even sand the axle with long screatches/grooves to help the clamp grab better. I've taken one totally apart for recovering. I had to change the shape to fit the replacement rear-view mirror off the Eclipse I got my seats from. Has anybody recovered their sun visor(s)? Mine are plenty saggy, and I was thinking about using (suede) leather. I'm not sure if ( a very dark brown) suede would be period-correct? You can get leather (suede?) cheap at the Salvation Army store by getting a leather coat/jecket and cutting that up. Much cheaper than regular sources! thx

I'm inclined to think about how deep any rust has gotten into the rod to determine how susceptable it will be to breaking.

Send Lawyers, Guns and Money....

How important would it be to get some extra T/C rods? I mean, if I spot some on eBay, should I snap them up? Also, do you think it would help to put a doubler tube over the outside of the rod, to give it some strength? thx

You could just takethe evap. tank out, but thewn you would have to be carefulhow full you fill the tank, especially in the summer, or the gas will expand & overflow- which is what the tank is for. Bill-- You should try this web site: http://wordweb.info/

I cured my car of gas smell by leaving the windows & hatch open, and driving around lots.

oops, double posted.

I'd be careful about saying that, because the 350 has already been called a "classic"! By TV shows like Motorweek and Sports Car Revolution to name two. I think they are premature just because of how fast (too soon) they said this.

I would agree that this subject has been discussed enough so we all know how different people feel about it from the different viewpoints, to let it come to a close...

In that way, the 350Z seems to really excel! I have respect for it, as Nissan actually did get some people to think it's a "sports car" and buy one, but I think you could have done betterfor yourself. I think the newer Mustang is a little too padded. That's why we have a 65 Mustang. But I don't consider that a "sports car" either- just a classic car. Regrettably, with the new hybrid- powered cars coming out, the "real sports car" will vanish with the availability of gasoline, unless somebody finds an acceptable replacement for gasoline. Going 6,000 miles on a fillup is a good idea, but that isn't why we buy sports cars, is iit?

So threefittyzee thinks WE are biased? Well, first of all, I don't have a 2420Z. I have the 280Z *with automatic), and I think that car has more "sports car feel" than the 350Z. When I drove the 350Z, I got no more excitement than my Ford Escort gives me. The Escort was 1/2 the price, has less junk on it to distract you ( only radio & power windows) and it even has more room and NO cupholders! I don't need to use phrases like "C'MON!" to explain that the car DOESN'T TURN ME ON, and there could be a million web sites related to the car. THE 350Z DOESN'T TURN ME ON!!! That's all there is to it. I get more intense feelings riding my 14-speed Puch road bike at 35 mph down a twisty road than I got from the 350Z on the SAME road. It's just a plastic-plated, over-padded, rubber-dampened marketing machine. I would rather buy a Ford Focus.
