Sorry James, I saw your e-mail and forgot to forward this to you. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16870&highlight=build+dates This discussed the various dates and their meanings. I think you are correct with December 5, 1970. What dates do you find on the wire looms? I suggest you drag up that old thread and add your info to it! Chris

Ahh yes..."song BY Arlo..." Sorry. That should read; "Authored by Woody (a devout communist I'm told from the right-wing Christians) sung by Arlo." I don't get it with all you sour-pusses. I love that ad. Makes me chuckle and make mouth noises in my car like I was a little kid again. And BTW, Alan. Heads up. Package in the mail to you. Global Express. Should arrive next week some time.

Sounds like it, Will ! Go-for-a-ride-in-your car-car-car. Brrppp Brppp Brooomm Brrooomm I love it.

Check it out. Song by Arlo Guthrie. The red 350Z was at the convention. http://www.nissanusa.com/zcommercials?Site=N06ZZZE0805WAA000303&Area=03&Creative=03

Thanks for this thread, everyone. Really enjoy it.

You are describing the sound insulation mat we commonly refer to as the tar-paper insulation. Some guys have had luck heating it with a hot air gun and scraping it off with a putty knife scraper. Some guys swear by freezing it with dry ice and breaking it off. But the answer to your question is yes. You have to scrape it off inch by inch. My advise is that if is not rusted beneath it, don't scrape it off. I also advise you to not use POR, but suit yourself. I hate the crap.

Thanks for posting this thread, Ben. I'm a big fan of the historics, as you might have guessed. Would love to have a Cd of your pictures. Chris
