Exciting News: Welcome to the Next Chapter of The Classic Zcar Community! Greetings, Z enthusiasts! I’m thrilled to introduce you to the refreshed and revitalized Classic Zcar Community—the next evolution of the space we’ve all cherished for the past 30 years. While we may have a new name, our mission remains the same: to bring together passionate Z-car owners, restorers, and fans from around the world. This update isn’t just about a fresh look—it’s about embracing new technology while preserving everything that has made this community special. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning or are just joining us, you’ll find all the resources, discussions, and camaraderie that have made this community a staple for classic Z fans. There are countless new features and enhancements, far too many to list in a single announcement, so I invite you to explore and experience them over the coming weeks. We’ll continue to fine-tune and make improvements, but everything is up and running smoothly. I encourage you to dive in, connect with fellow enthusiasts, and keep sharing your knowledge, experiences, and Z passion. This community is what we make it—so let’s keep the Z content flowing!

I've tried rebuilding several cables like this, mostly the choke. Anything I would do to it would eventually fail. TBH, I'm not sure anyone here has taken on this kind of project.- Why?
Security. Usernames are published in each post. But email addresses are not. So, by moving to an email login this eliminates 50% of the information that hackers can use to try to get in. (other 50% is the password)- Fuel tank reproductions
