If Anyone is interested
Still sounds like a scheme to line their pockets with an extra $200 for doing essentially nothing. I don't know about Misery (Missouri), but in CA one does not transfer title out of a person's name, or into another person's name. What happens is you send a simple notice to the CA DMV (Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability ) that you have sold the car as of a certain date, and odometer reading to another specific person (takes about 3 minutes to complete the form). It is that new owner who is responsible for establishing registration under their own name

Hey Will I did notice in my Google search of AR towns, the Bald Knob Moniker, and from there it was easy to see that our forefathers named many places "Bald Knob". They had a sense of humor I never knew about. No sacrifice is necessary. But, do you have a joke to share? Speaking of diamonds, did you hear about the lost 108 carat diamond at the Monaco GP this past weekend

someone got their inheritance
Several reasons: 1. The auction can be pulled by the seller at any time. (quite likely) 2. The buyer may be serious and willing enough to bump any competing bids. (quite likely) 3. Could be a B.S. statement (I seriously doubt this is the case)

check this out, 400+ hp...
Now days, there arn't too many other options for "proper" wheels (i.e. w/o spacers, etc). Wheels are like women.........appearances and what men like / dislike about them are very individual. (I like the Panasports, had Minilite Repros on my first Z back in 1980)

Train Joke
A man and a woman, who have never met before, find themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on the Alice to Darwin train. Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, the two retired and fell asleep quickly...he in the upper bunk and she in the lower. At 1:00 pm he leans over and gently wakes the woman saying, "Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the cupboard to get me a second blanket? I'm awfully cold." "I have a better idea," she replies. "Just for tonight, let's pretend that we're married." "Wow! That's a great idea!!" he exclaims. "Good," she replies. "Get your own f...ng blanket!" After a moment of silence, he farted.

Penguin Joke!
Found this one on the net a few months ago.

It is light (you're reading more into it than is there) it just that the joke is old and was told to me by an elementary school student long ago, so I don't find it funny at all. As for the vegetarian joke, I can only guess the answer would be somethg to do with vegetable soup. (actually, I think you were only off on one letter in regards to spelling. You're slipping up) Hey Will, there is also a "Bald Knob" in AZ, and maybe other states as well.

71 or 73 i have both
So, the 71 is rusty AND has a sunroof? Let it die! Use it for parts. Sunroofs are not good in a Z. They weaken the whole body and most cause more rust because they usually let water attack the roof and seep water onto the floor pans. Use it for parts and save the engine and trans for future use or sell them.

OH NO! You've been infected with Bill's sense of humor (lack there of) And I had such high hopes for a good joke from Will!

When purging gas tank:
That is basically what I did, except that I had about 1 gallon of gas and crap in the tank when i dropped it, so I dumped it in a couple of bleach bottles and took it to our County Hazardous Waste site. The Firefighters around here no longer accept stuff like that. The radiator shop sand blasted out the rust, did a few minor repairs, pressure tested it to 10 lbs. and then sealed it. 3 year full warranty, $175.

Northern Cali meet: yes another one!!
Guus: The elevation of the observatory is right at 4200 feet (approx. 1290 meters), so it isn't extremely high, but it is the highest peak in a radius of 85 miles. The city of San Jose where we started is at / near sea level.

When purging gas tank:
That water would (in most "civilized places" be considered a hazardous waste and would be transported to and disposed of at your local hazardous waste facility. On the other hand, many folks simply take the tank to a raditor shop and have it boiled out instead of messing with it at home. There are some people who do as you stated, and just let the water go anywhere it feels like going. Without care for the environmental consequences. Choices, choices, choices............................

Z car Value
Hey Marty: Check the thread called "somebody got their inheritance". We discussed this a bit and according to Chris (26th) it is Burt's car.

Northern Cali meet: yes another one!!
TONS. (well, maybe not tons, but quite a few) Check my gallery for a special album with 11 pics. Ben and Marc also posted pictures but I don't know where they posted them to. Might try the 50 Latest Uploads link to see if they are still showing there.

Mt Hamilton road
Yeah, it was a good meet. The road is a nice twisty one, but the number of bicylists pedalling up to the summit kinda kills any chance to really exercise your Z. Limited guard rails and shear cliffs also tend to give one pause. No room for mistakes.

why the weight differences?
There are a few links that don't work at the moment. FAQ's is one of them. BUT, FAQ'a isn't where you want to go to find archives.(if that is what you're trying to do) CLick on "FORUMS" at the top of any page, then below the tabs, select "SEARCH" which will take you to a page where you can enter your search criteria.

Z car Value
Bet the owner (Peak Nissan) of the car that started this thread is banging his head on the wall!

280z with 350z headlights...
As I recall, there wasn't much problem with Photo-shopping (although we are a CAR CLUB, not an Arts & Crafts club). It was the SUBJECT (why is it that these artists all seem to get a stiffy over the Z33 Toad?) that was the issue with most people.

280z with 350z headlights...
Nope. I'm staying outta this one, this time. (has nothing to do with your skilz)

someone got their inheritance
Well yes, Burt (cardogman1) is the person I was thinking of. Here is a THREAD posted about Burts car when he bought it. I remember that he did acquire a overrider bar for his car and he did have a bit of an accident with his young son spilling some acid on a dorr panel, as I recall. I checked Burt's gallery for pictures, but it is empty. For some reason he quit posting here and in his last post mentioned that he was participating on the IZCC mail list instead of our website. It is a very nice car, but I'd be surprised if it sells at the price it is being offered. I have been surprised on occasion. Also sorry to hear (if it is) that Burt won't be a Z owner. He is a nice guy. Gave me a good deal on some parts that he didn't need.

This is the picture where Marc was STANDING on the handrail, with one hand on a pole that was "loosely set" into the ground. Behind that rail is a verticle drop of 70-100 ft to the roadway below! Nice Picture though. :wink:

#390 For Sale! Please Save From the Shredder!!
This car was briefly discussed on the 240z.org mail list, and even Carl Beck (who reveres the first 500 USA 240Z's) felt this was nothing more than a parts car for the few salvagable items it still contains which could aid a restoration of another car. Guess the current bid also suggests that other feel the same. Maybe Fred Flintstone will buy it?
