If you pay tax on the purchase, make sure you get two receipts... One receipt for the actual purchase price and another for a lot less (so you pay less taxes).

Hey guys... when was this event? Was it back in 2005 or recently? I just noticed that we don't have a 2006 event section. But, I fixed that and want to move photos to the new category if necessary.

Oh man.. it's been too long since I've been to Melbourne! Those are some excellent picts and I really do miss it down under. The weather looks absolutely perfect the day of your meet. I am jealous! Hope things are going well with the club down there...

Hey, I think it's great this guy wants to help keep these Z's from going to the scrap heap. However, I am not sure they are worth the restoration. They may have some good parts left for someone to build a nice car. Only trouble is taking the time to haul all of them away. That would be a hell of a task.

Hey Ron, I don't have a problem if you want to post a poll on this topic. But, make sure you have a good list of cars so people can pick from them. I could see this list becoming pretty long. It would be a great poll. Go ahead and post it on the "Front Page Polls" forum when you have a list ready.

Guys, it's pointless to discuss this all over again... we already have a thread for it.

That sounds like it came from a single guy who's a true vetran... :laugh: As my uncle once told me, "Never under-estimate the power of the p****." It has started wars, torn-apart families, and caused men to drive mini-vans. It's just the way it is. Relationships are a give-give situation and I always believe in treating my lady with nothing but royalty. -- MIke

Is your car a Scarab conversion? -- MIke

Here's a link to our gallery: http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost

Agreed, that's a nice car. Can you post the pictures to our gallery? The linked pictures work fine, but, they might vanish in 1-2 years when that website changes. If we have them in our gallery, they will always be here. dsommer, is that your car?

Agreed, I believe the Seahawks were robbed of at least two touchdowns. Especially the one that went through all the reviews. Where the hell were those refs from anyway? One of my buddies lost 200 bucks on that game. Luckily I don't bet on games......

Hey, we are totally welcome to the ZX. Although most of our members are early Z owners, the ZX is quickly becoming a classic. If you have a question about your ZX, don't be shy.... I must also compliment you on a very nice looking Z. It must be difficult to find parts and support in Finland. Or, do you notice a lot of other Z car owners in your country?

Found some funny stuff on the Internet....

Thanks for the help Vic.

Damnit guys!!! I missed this. I was at the Wilsonville Nissan on Sunday and they told me about it. Bummer I missed all of you. Hey, can you guys put your meets in our event calendar? I'd love to start going but I need a reminder. -- Mike

Here are some more CAD files of other vehicles in case anyone is interested. cobra.dwg Porsche911-plan.dwg harley.dwg Viper.dwg FerrariF2001.dwg

I have a copy of the .DWG file (attached) -- Credit: 26th-Z created this one. But, it's only the top view. I'd like to see the front and sides done as well. Even better -- a whole wireframe done in 3D. Datsun 240Z.dwg

Hi guys, There have been some discussion and some progress on CAD drawings for the early Z series. 26th-Z has actually done some work on it (and some others as well).

Oh hell yea... I'd go to that if I lived in LA. My travels to Australia were interesting. From all the wild Aboriginal people running through the streets spearing innocent bystanders, to the crazy 'Skippies' whacking cars with their tails, to the lazy Skippies laying out on the golf courses, to the rude and crude people... I'll never go back. I was a bit worried when I found snakes and spiders in my hotel bed. That was enough for me. JUST KIDDING!! In all seriousness, I absolutely loved all of it. The modern city of Melbourne was host to many of the most polite Awckers (sp?) I've ever met. The landscaping was amazingly beautiful. I even spent one day on the ski slopes and another day at the races watching Todd Kelly rip up the competition. Only complaint is Australia needs more Starbucks!!!!!! But, next time I'm going farther North... It's warmer up there and the diving is amazing. Anyway, I would consider migrating. I loved it that much. -- Mike

I just made it sticky and put it in our technical articles forum.

No doubt, this would be excellent for tech articles. I wonder how we can convert the DOC file to HTML efficiently. Or, you can simply post the DOC to the thread so that it's pulled into the database (rather than a link to an outside site). I would like to see this one last forever.... it's such a good job! Actually, I can sticky this one...
