Oh so WRONG. Obviously you haven't met enough people yet

Well, they are kinda busy. I personally don't care if they smile or not (I'm not there to make friends), but I do get annoyed when they act like it's a bother to sell parts for older cars, even though I go armed with the Part Numbers and reference to the fiche page the part is found on. That's another reason I miss Chloe.

VIN Decoding
My valuation may not match anyone else's. I will always value something like that on the low side unless/until I can view it IN PERSON. Pictures and a flakey seller (this one IS) can be very deceptive.

VIN Decoding
Good catch Andrew. I didn't recognize the VIN. I wouldn't bid over $600 for that car, myself.

US B210-->is this the US's 240k?
Oh ya, altering the wheelbase is a minor change and simple task. :stupid: Shoehorning an L24 into a 610 would be easy in comparison Victor: I wish we had gotten those models also.

VIN Decoding
1. Valuation of Z's can vary significantly depending on location 2. Terms like "fairly straight body" leave a lot of "wiggle room" and what fits that difintion in your eyes will probably not fit that definition to me. 3. If it's only 80 to 90% complete, it's a project car and it's value is (IMO) much less than a complete car of comparable condition, VIN, etc.

clutch problems???
Whatever you did with the diff shouldn't have any bearing on the clutch problems, so lets forget about that. What did you do with the trans or clutch P/P, T/O bearing, Slave cylinder, Master cylinder? Change any parts, mix up parts, forget to bleed system?

Actually the correct answer is a 2 part answer. Part 1. Because you have one. Part 2. Because she's female.

As far as I know the image size is limited to 1024 X 768 OR LESS and I believe you have to do this image by image (in other words you can't upload 1 folder with multiple images).

Fuel Filler Door Lock Detail for Series II 71 240z; Picture Request
I think your gas cap door is correct for your vintage of HLS30-U. The 71 Z that I previously owned had the latch you describe. The 73 240Z that I owned had a lock/key. The 72 Z I currently own has neither.

Got ahead of my self, and now can't remove Nut!
Thanks Pancho. Just to be clear, do we use the cut-off wheel to remove only the "peened" area of the nut, or do we cut off the entire area above the "hex" part of the nut? Mark: Thanks for the offer of pics. I don't think I need any more of this part f the job, but if you document the rest of the job, please consider posting some images of the important aspects of this project.

Got ahead of my self, and now can't remove Nut!
Mark: I was wondering about this. It looks like the threads on the stub axle have been removed by the cutting. Is this an illusion? I am trying to gather as much information on this job as I possibly can as I am sure I will have to do it one day in the future and I want to understand what to do and not to do when the time comes.

Gas tank restoration
If your tank is rusted badly inside you may have no choice but to have the tank opened up to treat it. It can be very difficult to reach all area's inside a tank to remove the rust without cutting holes in it. In short, you do what you have to do to restore your tank to a structually sound condition since new tanks are not available, and used ones in decent condition can be hard to find. Thanks to a poor repair contracted by the (original) P.O., my cars tank had to have two holes cut into it to allow access to all the rusted areas. After the rust was removed, the openings were sealed by patches riveted in place , then silver-soldered, and finally the tank was sealed. a 3 year warrenty was given by the shop (this was almost 6 years ago) and I have not had a single problem, or sign of any rust in the fuel filters since the repair.

Anniversary? Well, Err, Ahhh........ we met last May on the Mt. Hamilton run with Ben and Dave Record. I'm not sure that I can be there at the Stoneridge Mall meet this weekend. I'll be at Blackhawk for sure though.
