I dont think they are factory (at least not Datsun factory), Motorsport sells them.

It's worth more if someone is willing to pay more. Doesn't do much for me.

One word: "slots"

For Valintines Day me and ex wife #2 decided to bury the hatchet (safely). I was in the Harley shop today, sitting on a 1600 fatboy MMMmmmmm. $27k up here (tax and 7yr warranty in).

No hate - just jealousy. Cars look great! Went up to two today, calling for -12 tonight.

I had a front spoiler on my 71, it still floated seriously over 110.

Is this possible? I've had my old 71 up to 120 and she was near flight - the 77 at around 121 when I ran out of room and guts. 155 sounds pretttty tall.

It's been well discussed.

Got to agree - I liked it but the Z race put the question mark in my head and the more I watched after, the more it seemed full of s--t. Wrote them (Richard?) a couple of letters - no response.

Looks great. I wonder how it is for abraision resistance?

I used the old shifter also - worked perfect.

Looking good!

I was checking out thier 74-78 Dash's they quote $21XX.00 - same at Motorsport is $13XX.00. That is some hard price differences for identical products.

I thought detailing was just very good cleaning.

Mine is only in the high 70s, but if all goes well I'll end up with the highest miles.

You guys kicked the poop out of my point of view. Carl has enlightened me/us again. However I still think it's a s--t hot car and worth more than the barn find I mentioned from last year, but not 20K. I think Arne's car is pretty hot too.

Hey Greddy - excellent work. Are you putting the bumper back on? Looks like its in perfect condition.

Well that Canadian dollar looks pretty good. I'm facing courtwork (EX wife #2) - no new aquisitions in my near future. If the undercarriage is as good as he says, he should post some well lit shots to show it off.

May have been stock throttle control - only a new knob.

I like this car - it was listed last year. When you think about that '72 barn find from a year ago that went for 13,500, this one is running, low milage and appears to be almost perfect. I'm thinkin he got the price right. If I won the lotto..... I love that colour too.

Congrats - look forward to seeing the pics.

Hi Bart - I think you're going to love that car. You will be very pleased when it is ready for the road. Alot of people here have had several Zs over the years and are still looking around for another. These guys are a wealth of information. Lots of help is available. If you watch ebay you'll find there are CDs available of Datsun shop service manuals, There is a site called "Ultimate Z car link page" with lots of good advise, parts and modification sites, also check out "Zhome.com". Courtesy Datsun in Texas sells service Cds but only 1972-78 I think. Anyway welcome aboard and Good luck

It does look skewed, but that spray paint on the exhaust - whats that about?

Thanks for the link Dave.

We are forcast for 45 cm of snow tonight/tomorrow. That's about a foot and a half in imperial measure. I'll be lucky to be able to get into the shed.
