We'll be ripping the L24 out of the FR240Z this weekend and putting in a Cummins Diesel. I want to be able to tow the 77 behind the 72. Vicky NOT!!!

Remember Zedrally, the 72 is a Factory Restored Z, so maybe Nissan was getting lazy with the keys. My husband had the 77 ignition, doors and hatch all keyed for the same key. Vicky

Same key for the door, hatch and ignition on my 72 & 77. Vicky

My '72 240Z key code starts with a M and then a 4 digit number. It's on a sticker on the inside of the glovebox door. Vicky

Anybody else seen the new Charger that Dodge is suppose to unveil next year................nice, very nice. Hope it represents the heritage better than a few other cars we know. Vicky

Is it "Convert Your Z Week" or something on this site. classiczcars.com must mean blown454classiczcars.com now Vicky

Scott and I will be at that party!!! Vicky

Is it possible that the company may be in receivership/filing bankruptcy and that might be why no ones heard anything? If this were true I don't think legally Chloe could contact anyone until everything is ironed out. Vicky

Man that first Z has a serious case of body rot on that corner. The second one seems very nice. Looks like texasz's car. Vicky

Then our Z's would have to go around in the primer stage since Mr. Connery is bald, no? Vicky

Since the guy is "reconstructing" the car, maybe Ben can get those wheels. I know he's been dying for a complete set of them. Ben are you watching this thread? Ben.... Vicky

John Kerry's face, the azz-end of that crossfire and dog doo all look the same to me Vicky

At least we know he likes Z-Cars more than Chevys Vicky

Sorry Stephen, I didn't mean to come across that way. I was just agreeing with what 2ManyZs said about jumping boards via a "dare". Good luck with your project ls1240z. What type of wheels are those on that blue Z? Those look great! Vicky

Italian of course! Hot tempered, lots of self pride and quite unafraid of others, always ready for a challenge. Highly respected and feared by many. Vicky

He'll have a hard time inciting a flame war here as we can only suggest what he should do with the car. If he chooses to butcher the car by making it a very common V8 conversion, no skin off our teeth. We've seen it done before and other fools will do it again. JMO Vicky

If the 240Z was a woman, then I guess I'd be gay! Vicky

I'd love to cruise the PCH. I'm going to do that next year when we bring the Z back to MSA for display Maybe we could get a group of Z's cruising together along that beautiful stretch of highway. Vicky

Chris, what are you going to do if that orange Z in the picture is #25 or #28 Just kidding ya there. Your hands are full with #27. Scott said he'd be willing to help you and Jim with anything on the car if needed Vicky

I was reading an article about how NASCAR needs to update a few things in their cars. One article was how NASCAR continues to use carburetors but virtually no cars built today utilize carburetors. The other article was in reference to cams. It stated that they continue to use "Old Style Flat Tappet Cams" which are neither as efficient nor as durable as roller cams. Much of the cam failure that drivers experience would be eliminated with roller cams. Our Z's have roller cams, correct? Can someone explain to me what a "Tappet Cam" is. Vicky

If you build the L28 out far enough it sounds just like a V-8. When we pull into a car show everybody swarms around this little red Z wanting to see the V-8 inside. We open the hood and they all just look stuned . They can't believe the mighty inline 6 can rumble with the big boys. When and if this site gets the ability for sound, I'll load up the 77 280Z...........it's a beautiful noise V-8 Z...been done...been over done IMO Vicky

If Scott and I weren't so busy with work, I'd take a road trip to get your car. We have a dually and a 24ft enclosed car hauler. Have you thought about renting a truck and open trailer from some place like U-Haul? Vicky

Why doesn't someone contact the local police to go out and take a look. They'd do that for a local friend and I'm sure they'd do that for members here. Just an idea. Vicky

Did you buy the 27th-Z Chris? Vicky

That method is called "Polish Chrome" (You know as in the people from Poland, not as in shine) :cheeky: Vicky
