  1. I've learned to say "hey there buddy!" It buys me more time to think.
  2. Looks like the one pointing out ready to fly is the one you've taken, that's the one I'd be in.
  3. Another haircut.
  4. Those things are so bendable. I've wondered if paint would stay on mine. Acrylic maybe?
  5. http://www.copart.com/ will get it most likely.
  6. Will you get another 240? I pushed lady luck with motorcycles then she pushed back and I walked away for good. Actually rolled away in a wheelchair broken and bruised, glad to be alive.
  7. Yes, take it apart for sure. They sent me a bad one and I had a helluva time trying to figure it out, my first time ever fooling with one. I called and explained the deal and they overnighted one to me. Good people to do business with. You did notice the different heights between the front carb and the rear one right? I think I ended up just adding one extra washer onto the front. It needs to be deeper in the float chamber to make up for the fuel sloshing back when you accelerate. If I remember right???
  8. Ha! That's what we do when we're young. "Do you know why I pulled you over? The speed limit is 45 and you were doing 10!"
  9. You can take the spring out of the new valves and stretch it to make it stronger. Are you sure your floats don't have fuel in them? Blow and suck on the fuel inlet bung to check their operation before you put them back on. With the pin up you can blow through, pin in you can not, You can polish the aluminum pretty good with this stuff,
  10. I set mine between the lid and the top of the floats. Make sure the tops of the floats look level or parallel with the lids when you are done.
  11. You want to get in on this @Tomcat and @dtshaw66 We can shoot straight up I-65 or plan out a more scenic drive, meeting up with the others. Big fun. It's sometime next summer. There'll be a lot more information as it gets closer, Middle Tennessee Z Club puts it on. Cliff
  12. That would be at MY house if I lived anywhere close. $3,000 plus another $3,000 and a lot of elbow work and that's a $10,000 car.
  13. I thought about the FM signal 3.5 adapter later this morning but didn't realize it would be mono. Putting new internals would be the thing to do in my opinion. Maybe later, I use a Bluetooth can speaker with my phone now and can take it from car to car. It's surprisingly loud and rechargeable through a USB plug. I'm thinking of wiring one into my orange 240 for charging abilities. That's the original radio out of my 01/72. Hitachi I suppose? Thank you for your help and ideas, I appreciate that.
  14. There's something in Nashville next year, maybe zcon 2017? I'll be there for sure, poolside.
  15. Camrys are a dime a dozen. That may be the thing to do.
  16. If I put a lift in they'd be one in my kitchen on one side and my bedroom on the other. Or I could dig out and have a "drop" instead of a "lift". Hire El Chapo's tunnel guys.
  17. Now that I'm able to explain, unable to get a reply box? I try to keep up but I know everybody else does to. So wealth has nothing to do with it, determination is all you need and this forum. Money helps but time and the right information is all I need. Cliff
  18. That's my thinking too but I'm getting over the line with this hobby. It has consumed my life, mind, money and storage space. Time to reevaluate for me. I'm not a wealthy person. It's nerve wracking to say the least. I want another boat too! Girls don't get it when I won't go somewhere but buy an aluminium flywheel, weirdos.
  19. I use a drill and a long metal rod down the distributor hole to the pump, no valve cover. Start on low or you'll get splattered when it fills all the lines. Works good I think. I've discovered some bad holes on my spray bar before start up thank goodness. The rod I'm using now came out of a new clothes washing machine I bought. It's purpose is to keep the the basket locked during shipping. Ground one end down similar to the pump/dizzy drive spindle.
  20. Seriously? For the 19th time, http://jarvas240z.blogspot.com/2013/01/electric-fuel-pump-installation.html
  21. Tabco still makes replacement panels.
  22. Awe you guys, we think alike. $4,500 maybe. If someone wants to get cheap I could put the OE N47 on it and keep the N42 I bought.
  23. It's been so hot this past week and my Camry sits in the heat. I must get rid of one of my Zs and free up a garage spot. 918 is staying, so either 110 or 305?
