Barret Jackson Auction is ON!
Right. Do you have "just" the badge (Cavallino) or the whole body kit AND the badge?

Barret Jackson Auction is ON!
I was referring to Stephen Blakeney's 280 and his comments about people not recognizing his car. On your 280 zcar, (w/ a GTO kit?) it would be much more likely that the "average idiot" wouldn't know what it was. ( They never cease to disappoint me!) Fewer Ferrari's to "experience/compare to" and the combination of Datsun mechanicals and "Un-Datsun" body panels would throw off many who aren't really into sports cars.

Fuel Vent Line - Carbon Canister Removed
With SU's you'd want the fuel return line hooked up so (as TomoHawk says) the extra fuel/pressure can bleed off back to the fuel tank. "I" don't know enough about 4 barrel carbs to advise on your set up.

parking brake self adjuster locking up drum
I think Ed is on to something there regarding the E-brake cable adjustment (at the bracket in the center). With new shoes AND new drums, you probably would need to make an adjustment there or the lever might not move away from the teeth on the adjuster wheel of the RWC. Certainly worth a try as it's free and can be "undone" easily.

giving or receiving???? :stupid:

parking brake self adjuster locking up drum
Are the teeth on the adjuster wheel oriented in the correct way? Wondering if maybe one of the RWC's came with incorrect parts or something. Places where the RWC slides in the slot of the backing plate greased? Just kinda tossing out basic idea's off the top of my head. Let me know if you don't get it solved. I'm off work Weds, & Thurs, and next Sun.

Or "expurts". Like they couldn't even notice the badges on the side and back of the car to figure which it is. :stupid:

Yes, I believe you're correct on that.

Great News Victor! Something prompted me to ask about your car today. (Maybe my psyche heard her calling for you to come and bring her home!) :D

Cam Sproket Won't Come Off
What I have done is to wedge a piece of soft wood between the cam gear and the side of the head to kinda lock the cam/chain/etc from turning. Put a 22mm (I think) socket with 1/2" breaker bar on the bolt, and whack the breaker bar with a 3 lb. sledge hammer. Has worked every time for me. Of course you must use something to wedge the chain tensioner in place, as stated above.

parking brake self adjuster locking up drum
Hi Wayne. Did I ever tell you that I hate drum brake problems like this? As you know, the adjusting is supposed to stop at some point. If all the parts are new, it's probably something simple in terms of assembly. Wish I didn't have plans for tomorrow or I'd come down an help you play with it.

Take the Silicone test
Dashed home at lunch & scored 15 of 20. Hmm. thought a self described "professional" would have done better than that!

I am puzzled on this one

Take the Silicone test
Damn, and me stuck at work until evening. I have an MS Excel document at home that has a similar test. Great fun to take. I scored well on it, but really, does it matter if they are "enhanced" or not? If they are "real" enough for me to be able to touch, that's "real" enough for me. Oh, Dwight; You were right about Tivo. I am watching a lot more TV shows now that it helps me find, and not miss the good stuff!

Vic: Maybe it's dumb to ask, but I was wondering if there was any news on your car or the A-Hole who tried to cash your checks? Still hoping you get her back. Carl
