  1. Yes, like legalization would bankrupt Alabama. Law Enforcement waiting tables, attorneys mowing grass.
  2. Here's a Schneider I have. The front is scribed with the info. Go to Schneider's website and find the info. Mine is a 280F You'll have remove the cam sprocket though I beleive. Whole nother can of worms!
  3. That's about as nice a portable pit as I've see! We have two of these running around the clock. Oyler's by J&R Manufacturing, Mesquite Texas.
  4. Oh the Big Hair bands. Those were the days.
  5. View from the rear on this one. Smoke off his boots!
  6. Underground but that would cut cost to us, can't have that.
  7. We got lucky, he only circled the south eastern corner.
  8. I deleted that email without ever looking. I know ME.
  9. I rembered some honey cone comb looking filters from a few days ago. They looked really good! Finally found them under my nose.
  10. I looked through Facebook's marketplace earlier. Lots of datsuns on there. 240s were $4k to $25k. Give it a look if you haven't.
  11. Yeah there's some type of berry they like that gets them high.
  12. That's an odd looking building. Did a double take 3 times.
  13. You have to take a bolt out at the rack connection where the bottom splines are of the rod. Remembering more now. The tie rods have flats on them. Put a Crescent wrench on there and another on the nut. It'll be laying on the ground so use your feet to break them loose. Rember, driver's side is left handed threads. Passenger's is normal lefty loosey.
  14. That column goes up and with 4 bolts through a "puck" shaped bushing connects to the steering wheel arm that comes through the firewall. Remove those. I remember having to loosen up the rack itself and rotate it forward to get the column either off or back on? it's a real snug fit. Replacing that puck looking bushing is pretty cheap and easy. Makes a huge difference for a steady steering wheel while driving. Zcardepot probably has one? Or Napa maybe, they have weird odds and ends for our cars. Heck Nissan may have them?
  15. Good 'ole Al.
  16. Looks like he wound up in a field of dreams, pot field of dreams. Be glad you weren't on your motorbike.
  17. Here's something to read when you have a minute. It's our worst "dream" car.
  18. Try "searchtempest" for craigslist cars all around you. $10K should get you something decent but since the prices have rocketed this past year or so you may consider an efi car, '75 and up, change over to carbs for fairly cheap compared to rebuilding the old fuel injection. You'd get a little bigger motor, 2.8 instead of 2.4, for less dough ray me. Find some and post them up here. We'll gladly tell you what to do!
  19. http://www.zhome.com/ Left side about the third section down. "Buying A Z car tips"
  20. You want one with the least rust. Are you going to work on it yourself, ready to drive, carburetor or EFI? Some good info here... https://www.google.com/search?q=buying+my+first+Z+classiczcars.com&rlz=1C1BOFA_enUS494US494&oq=buying+my+first+Z+classiczcars.com&aqs=chrome..69i57.13549j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
  21. Buyer beware! Some very unsatisfied buyers. One star reviews from real people, 5 stars from one person; fake I'm sure. https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/glendale/profile/auto-brokers/vintage-car-collector-1216-762227/customer-reviews Take your time, the right one will find you. Kind of weird how that works but it does.
  22. My similar fuel rail has a T out the back. One side to the cold start, the other to an original equipment fuel pressure regulator from a '78. Worked out good for me. I can post up some pictures tomorrow if you want. Cliff
  23. Japanese Racing White's Tech Tips. Woof, that's a mouthful of change. Will you do two blue stripes? I like stripes.
  24. My 69,??? vin 1972 did not have one. My '77 has one. I want one for my 240 though as they seal up a little better the engine bay, pulling most of the air through the radiator. I think it would run cooler with one. My opinion only...
