Damn, wha a ride

what about framed pics of members rides, or pics that can be framed. Ask members to donate their pics and get em 'blown up' or whatever you'd have to do.

That classic revival 250GTo is awesome! Now if only I had a spare $25k and a spare zed.

I don't get the second part of this one... :stupid: :nervous:

shize, i forget this post for a few days and now i have to make like 15 shirts so i can use all the slogans. =D oh well Oh yeah, I just thought of a take on what someone here has: Commodores( hehe or CommoNdores ) in the mirror are slower than they appear. Falcons in the mirror are slower than they appear. (Aussies will understand just how dangerous it could be to be wearing that)

I'm thinking making some Zed shirts for myself, can anyone think of a good zed slogan? Doug

/bows Glad to be of service.

May I suggest that a short email be sent to all members informing if this important vote and that they should visit the site to have their say. Some may not have visited for a little while, or go straight to the forums without seeing the main page. Just a thought Doug

The only ones I have ever seen for sale here in Oz were similar to the $150 ones you mentioned, fit was cruddy and they had these little fiddly brackets that didn't look to strong. Matter of fact I now recall talking to a guy about them some time ago about some for my 260. I have his number somewhere, I'll call him and see if he knows a brand that is good. Will get back to this thread with an answer. Doug

I know of a guy who has what he calls the 630Zed. Its a 260 with a 6.3litre speedway motor and Toyota hilux 4WD running gear under it. Its look like a mean beast and goes like $^!# from a shanghai! By the time he gets the pedal to the floor hes already there!!

Speaking of models, does anyone know where in Oz I would be able to get a zed modelkit, dealers, big model/hobby shops? Suggestions appreciated. Oh and in Vic if that helps. Doug

re: quote thingy how about It's a Z thing.......

hmmmmm, I just had a thought, would it be feasable to put 'shutters' on there that I could close in rain and leave open when dry? Now, if I can only rig up a system to open and close from in the car I'd be set!!

thanks 2mzs, gives me more of an idea what im looking for, the oz models seem to have a '260Z' emblem on the fron quarters, this sounds as thought its different to the us models. anyway thanks :sleep:

thanks alot for your replies, it is a carburetted (sp?) car, no emission crap on it. it gets in before the emission regs by 2 months. 2mz's by 'put a set on', do you mean just cut a hole and stick 'em in or? this sounds interesting, if you wouldn't mind giving me some more info... thanx Doug

welcome ranz, good to see another ocka around by the way, i would also kill for a 'good' 240, only decent one near me is $18,500

hi, just like to know what badges a 4/76 260 2+2 should have, have seen 'restorezone' site i only have the badges behind the rear windows thanx

hey there, I have a zed bonnet with no vents in it, but I'm told Zeds that had AC had vents to release extra heat buildup. Firstly, is this so? And if it is, will I have any problems running a 'plain' bonnet? Thanks

I have a 'wooden' 240 wheel in my zed, they look really nice but I have also noticed how they are a bit diffulcult at times. But I'll keep it anyway, since its an antique an all

Yesterday I was going to a mates to check out his 260 when I saw what looked like a -previosly- spotless orange/gold 260 that had been T-boned on the drivers side, it was on a trailer going the other way. I considered turning around but my old man wouldn't hear of it. ( hes into VW's ) <end mindless time filling drivel> now let us all lower heads and pray for this unfortunate Zed........

Just like to add another $0.02 I'm 18 this april and my 260 is my first car. ( Pretty sweet huh? Jealous? ) But I do come from a motorsport background, old man has been off road racing and rallying for about a 100 years . Not that I'd ever destroy a Zed by putting a fatass rollcage in it.....

yeah well I sorta meant posters of Zeds but hey bikinis are cool too! And if the two were combined it could begin a whole new era of publishing! Or not.... So if anyone can answer my first question....

Yeah ta, I'm going to try to find it at a shop near me so I don't have to fork out for overseas mailing costs. And on pictures, is there posters, sorta like Z centrefolds?

sounds good, I'll try to locate near or subscribe and pay freight. thanks for input.

Hi, just wondering if anybody knows about Sport Z magazine and if its any good, gona cost me a packet here in land downunder oh well... any comments appreciated
