  1. I normally remove the metal retaining ring first with some picks. Then it should come out pretty easily
  2. That is why I like seeing the color on an entire car. It's hard to get a feel for how the color will look from a small sample. A car sized sample is much better...
  3. I had considered that they grafted a whole 280z front end onto a damaged 240z. That would explain all the under hood anomalies but not alter the firewall VIN. Graft the rear end in too because it was caught in a pile up???

    Thats not bad...
  5. Man that's great!!! Enjoy, nothing like beautiful baby girls!!
  6. $27k for a sub 1000# car is a really good price!!!

    Rough costs for a lot of parts like that?
  8. I like to walk car lots to look for colors I like. then match the year and make at the paint shop.
  9. Pretty car. I like that
  10. Have you touched base with Mike or pm'd him. He might have the solution or be able to push you in the right direction
  11. I agree with Zed, if there's no fluid on the ground it has to be going around the MC seals. The booster just does it faster. You need to see if its going into the booster. Does it consume fluid?
  12. Lexus has had a number colors similar to that dark blue of the car on the lift
  13. Very close Chris. although I don't think it sold $1,957,507
  14. Does it have stock booster size. When its running, if you pump it quickly, it wont catch higher?
  15. So it doesn't come up if you pump it?? That was my first thought too
  16. See, I thought I had a problem because I have SO many Datsun parts... I am so relieved now!
  17. Maybe somebody like this?? https://www.khkgears.us/ https://www.sdp-si.com/products/Gears/Index.php https://www.ondrivesus.com/precision-gears/metric-series?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIl5Xpqd6_7QIVBaGGCh3ZiAXmEAAYASAAEgICdPD_BwE I'm not sure I'm technically savy enough to find it though
  18. Is there another source for the idler gear? Maybe a generic catalog? It's not a very complicated piece...
  19. I would hesitate to say this. You may be correct but I doubt they reconfigured the F & R set up for no reason. Although I am unsure of what it is. It may be a pressure thing or it may be the front portion of the master gets better pressure if the rear circuit fails in that configuration... I have had success rebendng these lines. Just be careful and don't get in a hurry. You might want to crack the other end of the line loose and retighten so if you have a problem you know you can get it off the car and replace them
  20. Nice lady. She had a long interesting life...
  21. I agree on the quarter! The door was really junk because of all the bondo but one day soon junkie doors will be worth something too...
  22. That's too bad. I am going to need a reverse gear for the 5 spd for Cody's goon. He wants to rework it next week but I doubt I can figure out what I need much less have all the parts in time
  23. All good advice! and don't even consider buying it in Quarts and spraying it yourself to save money. I tried and couldn't find anything it would feed through properly... It is very thin and will run every where. It dries very quickly
