saturday night music thread
We were walking around Atlanta one night and stumbled up on him at Chastain amphitheatre. Sold out show. Gave the guard at the gate $100, went in and saw the whole show except the introduction song. Myself and two others. Life story for sure. He talked as much as he sang. It was great! Lot of skunks around that arena apparently? Very strong pissers!

This gave me chill bumps. Perfect song, perfect timing.

COVID-19
I live either at the beginning or the end of the Appalachian Mountains, depends on where you standing. I like to think the beginning but s h i t does flow down so most likely the end. Add my train of thought, where I was going with my post. There's a lot of state parks and the like up here cheap and friendly so I bet they do get close. Cornbread and grits and all that other stuff nobody admits to like.

Possibly found exhaust leak?
Mine are a lot thinner rubber in the middle than the originals. These may be thicker. You could ask, nice guy there. https://zcardepot.com/products/hatch-rubber-plug-grommet-oem-240z-260z-280z-70-78?variant=19274559815793¤cy=USD&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google+shopping&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIqbOKvI_07AIVHOy1Ch0EdQAJEAQYAiABEgJ8svD_BwE

Air / Fuel Meter Recommendations
I wonder how much money has been spent because that heating element went bad causing a replacement installed? Everyone I've ever heard of going bad was because of that.

Restoration Unveiled Today 08.17.2019
It was fun to talk about right after it happened. We were going around a sharp curve when the turbo spun up, the rear tires got off to the side in the grass then slid onto a cement driveway. Instant roll over. Busted some glass, beer cooler water and ice everywhere and we were laying on the roof (no seat belts back then, not cool). When the driver turned the ignition switch off fearing a possible fire Betty reminded us the lights were still on. I ran off and left my buddy with the ZX full of beer. We were in high school.

Paint code error on all original barn find 280Z?
Does your daughter's car have the #304 sticker too? I apologize if you've stated that already but I can't seem to see/read it. I have a 9/'76 #305 original paint. It's differently the light blue.

diy porting a 240z?
I can't add much more than what has been posted already. The book by Honsowetz is worth every penny. https://www.amazon.com/Modify-Your-Nissan-Datsun-Engine-ebook/dp/B0092WMDCK Then an older thread I found about turbulence in the intakes but that's also in the book.

Future of driving a "classic" car
I think of it like cholesterol. My grandparents died in their 60s. My parents, their 80s with monitoring and medication for high level LDLs. Change with intelligence.

Bitching Betty is what I've always heard. We flipped a ZX turbo and when we realized we weren't dead we started laughing, "ding, your lights are on. ding, your lights are on". Alcohol was a major factor that night.- What do you see here?
The thing that nobody can resist trying in their head is "race car is spelled the same both ways". You say that to someone and they get that spacey pause for a second.- 1976 280Z Restoration Project
