  1. Konig rewind 14x7 -9. 215-60-14 tires with rolled fender lips. Lowering springs and modified-shortened spring isolators.
  2. More of a collectors item since there is a club parts CD. I don't know this person but thought someone here might like this. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/pts/2515438269.html
  3. Black one with no stripes. Are we getting close?
  4. Maybe Bill Coffey's Z, dark blue? I stole these pics from the ARIZONAZCAR.COM CUSTOMER GALLERY. Or zwolfs car, a one off built by Terry Oxendale. http://www.fototime.com/ftweb/bin/ft.dll/detailfs?userid={7DC317B0-8EDB-4B2E-A837-F708D07C9769}&ndx=6&slideshow=0&AlbumId={B0B466A9-4204-4F78-BC4C-DEBD9966B5B9}&GroupId=&screenheight=1024
  5. BossaNova, the flares on the green car aren't sold by Motorsport Auto anymore. They called them "street flares" and are wider than ZG flares.
  6. I'm tellin' Bill and they're Dobermans FYI.
  7. The swap from auto to manual is pretty involved. First I would suggest using a 5 speed. I did the swap using this thread by Arne and as you can see the transmission is just part of the swap. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21274
  8. Arne's write up that sblake01 linked to was the best I could find searching the web. It helped my swap go much easier.
  9. Good find. Here is a video I shot of a street autocross from the 80's with some shots of national champ Andy Craig in his Z. Also the kick butt 510 of Randy Welch is in there too. Not quite Paul Newman but they are some of my heroes.
  10. Such a beauty and congratulations getting it on the road! What surprises me on a drive is how enthusiastic teenagers are towards our cars.

  12. I have 215-60-14s on mine but it's lowered. Click on my garage.
  13. Sparegolfer - google CP 48 Frank Leary for more pics and info.
  14. Sorta vintage - me at an autocross with my brother in the 90s before the flares. Those are 15x8 Wheel Specialties 7 spoke wheels like on the 27 CP car of vintagezracer. At least I think that was the company name. They are 2 piece glued together with "space glue" is how it was explained to me. The centers are thick and require long studs.
  15. Would your tire rubbing be solved by bending up the fender lips? I had 245s from the previous owner and the stock spring perch was cutting the inside sidewall.
  16. Great pics as usual. If I knew Jay was going to be there with his Z I would have come by to check it out. I like the car show in a parking structure idea.
  17. Not even close. I've never heard of anything like this!
  18. I have the radiator, larger brake pedal and starter motor (which is different than the standard) left over that you can have. You missed a complete swap package by a year though. I sold everything else to that guy in So Cal that was putting the automatics in Chinese trucks.
  19. Bill will be there and is making me attend. Steve Mill is coming down from Loomis and Gary, a mustang vintage racer who also has a BRE replica could show up if Bill can twist his arm too.
  20. I was gone by 11:00 or 11:30. Just not enough Z traffic. It was good seeing Mike Bibinoff with his Emod rotary 510. He helped me get into Datsuns when he worked at FAP by explaining the years I should look for when buying. Gary was there with his silver 240 and StealthZ - Eric who sold me his BAMF flares. This event made me want a 2 door 510 again, but prices are so out of control on them. Hope to see you on the 25th but I might be finishing the mods we discussed up until Sunday's autocross.
  21. Here are a couple more. It was good seeing you there inqui-Z-tor.
  22. I'm glad to hear that most everyone is OK and I hope your kids are feeling better. Christchurch is such a beautiful city but it sounds like some of the buildings took a hit. Bricks down and liquefaction - like the San Francisco quake I was in.
  23. I guess I can travel the 4 blocks to this one :classic: I have a neighbor with a Pantera that participates with this group. Oops, I will be autocrossing on the 26th
