Love the Dalmation names! I have Great Danes so I understand losing dogs. Happens a little too often for me.

Did you get a title? If not how are you gonna get it back on the road? Also there is a VIN number right above the brake booster. You aught to be able to get pretty close to month of manufacture with that.

Does it run? If it does, does it start and idle well? No pig rich smells at the exhaust? Check the usual rust areas, dog legs, under the battery, frame rails. The battery would probably be the biggest concern because of the climate. Look for butchered wiring or damaged rubber under the hood. Seems like a nice looking Z.

What Jim said ^^^^ Thanks

It's 5 O'clock somewhere

He has the larger head some Dalmations have. That threw me off. We had a Dalmation many years ago. Sweet dog but deaf from birth. They also shed terribly

80% RH or higher too. Very humid. Not to my liking either. The upside is we can drive our classics almost all year long, if the run.

The fuel line from the tank can be oversized. It won't hurt a thing.

Or you can use the thread tools and subscribe to the threads that have good info in them.

Looks good. Are you gonna paint the air dam?

Chas I will trade too. It's 97 here today and a heat index of 111.

Do you think that switched would have tripped in this particular accident since he didn't hit another car or a barrier?

I have always wondered what caused that.

Is that a Great Dane in your Avatar??

Thanks, Chickenman

Are these safe for yellow metals?

Well it really depends on where in California. It's a big place and covers a lot of different climate zones. Some of the high desert areas are really dry day in and day out.

In my shop, I run a Frigidaire dehumidifier 24 -7. It is set to 50% RH and has a drain hose leading outside so I never have to empty it. If it gets set any higher things start to rust and mold.

Is this critic only driving newer cars? Newer cars are much smoother between the gears.

That is fascinating. It is amazing that such small imperfections will stop the clock.

Cut your loses and replace the line. It will never be right if it has an significant rust in it.

Ok I was thinking it was the same engine. A good running EFI is nice and super reliable. That's what attracts me to ITB's

That was a well earned plate!

Redwing, Be very careful under the car. Make sure the ramps are solid and the car is not gonna move. Set the emergency brake and block the wheels on the ground if you are unsure its not gonna move. We don't want you getting hurt before we educate you

If they put in a whole poly bushing kit, the car shouldn't be any looser. Could be a little noisier as the poly bushing are firmer and transmit more sound.
