'68 Datsun 2000
I, frankly, don't understand why someone would want this in their yard as "art". There's no obvious reason why a car should rot when an enthusiast could take it and turn the car into something beautiful again. I do understand why you wouldn't want to part the cars, it takes time. But, I do think you should get these cars to good homes, at fair prices, so they can breathe life again....

You'll need an electrical wiring diagram for this project. http://www.classiczcars.com/files/category/1-wiring-diagrams/ I haven't checked the other sites, but, this is the one I know about in our downloads area. Mike

Wow, very nice early model. Has a few rust spots to figure out, but, a very nice investment.

My new 240Z Speedo Watch with year and Vin on the Odometer
Love this watch, first time I've seen it. It looks like the link no longer works probably due to the age of the post. But, do you happen to have the contact info from the manufacturer or reseller?

Hybridz.org is "For Sale"
Hi guys, let's keep this post on a positive note. I did send an offer to the admin to help them out but it looks like they have wind in their sails again. Let's hope the wind lasts and they are able to stay online. I am willing to help them out in any way possible but I cannot send funds. Other than technology, I cannot use our funds to help their site at the moment. I can always host, or provide technical help though. Anyway, it would be a shame to let their content go because they have some great info. My offer was to host their site on our server because we have plenty of bandwidth and storage space. Once they are ready, I'll keep the offer open. Anyway, about the support button, I am going to work on getting something up soon. Our store options are kind of confusing at the moment and I'll have to spend some time looking into the usability. The new layout should be an improvement but I still think the content inside the store needs to be improved (which is my job). Thanks guys.

Visited Kameari in Japan!
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing. I love Japan... would have made a visit to meet some local guys in Tokyo but I was only there for 2 days earlier this year. Would love to see a write up if you get a chance. You can post it here or in our blogs section. Cheers! Mike

Hybridz.org is "For Sale"
I just sent Dan a message with my contact info. Maybe we can help save the site. There's certainly no reason to lose a good Z site.

We can host their content. Who do I get ahold of to discuss?

Forum Search?
Hi @w3wilkes, the search is functional on this site. It's probably better than Google because it will include hidden areas not visible to non-members. But, you have to select the correct option when searching. For instance, if you have a topic (thread) open, the search will always default to the current topic. Here's what it looks like when I click search while reading this topic, for instance. Notice that it has "this topic" selected... The forum search is specific to the area you are in. If you want to search the entire site, you can go to our home page and click search, or, you can just select "All Content" under the drop down, like this:

How's the alignment in the shifter cutout? I used to have this problem because of the rubber boot. Fixed it with a revised shaft that fits better.

Photobucket Rant - They SUCK
Photobucket has gone downhill lately. I was recently browsing pictures on their site and there were WAAAYY to many ads. It was frustrating so I just closed the website. Guys, picture hosting on our club is FREE for members. You have your own albums and I back up this site every night. Take a look at our photos area, you'll be very pleased with the way it works. My favorite is the way you can drag and drop multiple pictures into a gallery without compressing, or resizing, the images. I can host images at no cost because we own the server and do not pay overages for storage or bandwidth. Most other sites have gone to a pay system because they are hosting their servers on the cloud. Cloud servers are convenient, but, cost too much money in the long run. I also do this for a living, which is why I know how to make it work.

Man, if I was still living in a big house, I would also be all over this deal. I'm in the city now with not much room to set up a darkroom. Fond memories of a time long ago.. @siteunseen, have you considered Craigslist or Buynothing (http://www.buynothingproject.org) ? m
