Spinning My Wheels... (Yet Another Wheel Thread)
For what it's worth I run these Hankooks on my orange Z, 205/50-R15 and love them for their look and price too. discounttire.com has them for $260 with $90 worth of rebates right now, $170. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findTireDetail.do?ra=searchTiresBySize.do&fl=&pc=19441&counter=0&ar=50&rd=15&cs=205

Somethings wrong...
Charles I'm sorry if that came out as dickish but the dot dot dot at the end left me wondering what you meant. Nothing but love from here.

RIP DEANNA
If your brown buddy is like mine, he'd eat that terra cotta tile you have. I wish I could get mine on the roof! Maybe he is scared of heights and could/would stay up there. Now he's digging to "Shina" as president trump would say, or is it "vagina", I haven't seen SNL in a few weeks. Beautiful dog, I'm sorry for your life without him. Cliff

Battery terminal? I'd like to think Greg would know that right off the bat. But a bad terminal on the alternator should show up with a volt meter. Or are talking about a bad connection on the parts store's equipment?

[2017] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?
You should add that info for the us, the novices. Steve's Tech Tips. It was fairly easy until the cabin side. That was a royal pain for me. I'm sure I did it the hard way because it was TOUGH! Anyway I'll never do it again. Now I have more money than sense, which ain't a lot of either.

[2017] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?
That's one of the hardest, most frustrating things I've had to do on mine so far. Congratulations on your power assist. I thought about going to the larger one but thank goodness the tight side of my brain took over.

Can you go to a local auto parts and have them roll their testing cart out and see if the alternator fails or passes? Advance does that around here for free, battery test load too.

Classic car insurance
Yes this is good to know, thank you Mr Arnett. I'll start saving sales of some "comps" for any potential disagreements just in case. I had to send a bunch of pictures and a completed application before getting approved but I'm going to email my insurance agent and ask specifically about this. Thanks again Cliff

Classic car insurance
I used to leave the chokes on in the 240s I had, all I ever did was move them around the garage so I figured just leave them pulled back. After rebuilding a set I learned a couple of things, mainly why I was smelling gas so bad. I live above the garage too.

Weber selection and initial jet tuning
maybe I'll hang on to mine. I'd like to hear them someday.

Much easier with my laptop. It's behind the couch, way behind the couch. It's been awhile since seeing Dan Tanna, '78-'81

Nothing cooler than a car in the living room. Remember Vegas? He parked his red Vette behind the couch.

Classic car insurance
I just bought 12 months for what 6 months from my main carrier charges. Stated value of $20K, 6,000 miles per year for $141. They don't write Hagerty so I didn't get a quote from them but I hardly ever drive the car so I'm happy with this and they're out of Alpharetta Georgia, local to me. http://www.classiccollectors.com/

1971 Datsun 240Z -- 82,567 Miles
I agree! I bet it has a ding or six in that garage. Edit: make that ten. Clothes hanger removal, climb on the Z.

1970 240Z on BaT
I'm glad you did post, my Dad had a mid 70s Vette that had the t-top mount on the deck. Cool car, when you add a Z you'll be my hero.
-
1970 240Z on BaT
I think $20K or more also. We'll see in an hour and a half. Does BAT have reserves?
-
Longer brake hoses - Anyone have them or made them?
Those do work good, especially by yourself. I have a 2x4 cut just right that I put at the seat's bottom and the pedals to keep pressure on them. Slide the seat as I go.

Z Lingerie. "Le Bra"
My Dad always told his friends " if at boys gotta go 100 foot, he's spinning 50 and slidin' 50" It's boring down here, I have scars all over my body but not in my head. I was a Le-wildass now I'm a sore Le-oldass.

Turn signal arm, what kind of metal is it?
I've seen them pitted with rust too. Try a magnet and you'll know.

I blame Cliff
We have a small farming college here that still gives those out. Most people hang them off their trunk latch though. Auburn Tigers. Most of the students live in trailer parks, seriously. EDIT: I need to get that right, they have a huge campus and room for trailer parks plus it's much cheaper than living anywhere near the Square. There's some super nice condos in that area. I've had some good times down on the plains, as we say. They're not as Greek oriented as the University of Alabama, come one come all in Auburn. Not so friendly in Tuscaloosa.

I blame Cliff
The yankees asked for a "Phillip". Always in a hurry.

I blame Cliff
- Can't maintain fuel pressure
- Original 1972 Hello Kitty Gas Door
I had an Exxon tiger tail that hung outside my gas lid. Nothing that nice or meaningful though (I'm guessing).- Can't maintain fuel pressure
