    Just wanted to share some photos of my Z over the years... This photo is just after I bought and rebuilt the engine. I drove it around through college. At the time, I purchased the car from a family friend who was storing the car in his garage. Purchased for $500 with a frozen engine block, bad head gasket, and seized brakes. After a few years, and the first split with my ex, I decided to 'man-up' and start taking the car apart. I spent the next several years sand blasting, with a gravity feed blaster, and disassembled the entire car. I then took her to a body shop of a guy in Corvallis, Oregon. he did the unibody work and painted the inside. The drive-train and brakes were installed so I could push it around in the garage. Soon thereafter, I re-united with my ex and we moved to a place in Albany, Oregon where I managed to get some more work done and the car painted. My Z then sat in this state for 4-5 years, neglected in the garage while I went through some even more challenging "life" situations (new house, final divorce, etc, etc) At one point, I ran into Steve Epperly from Ztherapy at a club outing. After hearing my story, he brought about 6 guys to my house and proceeded to take my car to his shop for restoration. This process took about a year. Until finally one day, he called me over and said, "Your car is running, do you want to see it?" We fumbled around with the car for another few months until Steve went to the Portland Roadster show and showed off the project for all to see. I then took delivery of my baby and drove her around to various different events and functions. I must say, without the support and encouragement of the Z community, this project never would have happened. Our cars may follow us through a lifetime, but, its always rewarding to sit back and appreciate the accomplishments. Sometimes I just go sit in my Z and stare at all the wonderful parts surrounding me. Thank you to everyone for all the support over the years, I wouldn't be here without you. Mike
  5. We own the server and I've got at least 2TB free.. so it's not that big of a deal. ? Only problem is that large images tend to dominate the page, so I changed the option.
  6. Done, fixed the signature option to only allow 350x300 pixels. Good idea.
  7. Trying the "choose files..." option.
  8. Trying it now. Seems to work fine for me... Did you drag and drop the image to the area "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." ?
  9. Aha, I knew we likely had a thread on this already. Thanks Alan.
  10. I saw this come up on social media and thought it would be appropriate to document here. The question was asked "Okay; I try to search through posts and comments to find my answers; but I've tried to find this.... can anyone tell me what the four threaded holes are designed for on the inner quarter, right behind the door opening?" Answer from @HS30-H, "Nothing to do with harness bars or harness attachments. They are the side mount hard points for the factory 'Safety Bar'/roll-over bar kit." Photo of the holes: And a pic showing the mount in use as intended:
  11. Ha! Oh that was taken several years ago during a trip to the lake... One of my favorite past times... Sitting back and enjoying time away from computers and iPads...
  12. Happy Fathers Day guys!! Enjoy your kiddos!!
  13. There was a member in Europe who was going to give a pair to his GF for modeling. But, that never transpired. My GF at the time (remember Racegirl?) modeled hats and Tshirts, but, no panties on camera. I saw them, but, wasn't allowed to take pictures.
  14. Now you've got me thinking about this again.... here are a few flashbacks.. Ha, I also forgot we were entertaining our own brand cigar! z label2.pdf
  15. Hey kmack! Just saw this tonight.. oh boy do I remember those hats. We sure have gone through a lot of 'projects' around the club haven't we? I remember the day when we were also doing those cheap shirts from a company on the Internet. The best projects were the real silk screened shirts and the embroidered hats like the one you've got. I seem to remember we did women's panties and baby shirts too...
  16. Moved this to the classifieds forum.

    If you find one, go ahead and post it in our downloads/files area.
  18. Hi Kirk, If they have consented to show their location, you can see members in the area from our member map. Simply write down the names of the members and invite them to the club area.
  19. Any chance you'd do one for me?

  21. Ya, not sure why it's posting the videos three times. Just copy-paste the single link and it should work only once. Maybe it's a bug, who knows. Just keep posting the videos and I can fix it... no need to worry about it.
  22. @Home Built by Jeff, hey I went through and cleaned up your links for ya. There were some double and triple videos in the posts. Sorry it's a little confusing to post videos here. Easiest way is to copy the link from Youtube in the "share" option on the bottom right of your videos. After posting them, it should show a video directly in the forum.
