Yeah I know i'm on a different wave length haha. You will be seeing me around though I'm sure.

 

 

I worth for High Priestess in oregon now, and this is where I wanted to be for a long time. Rion caught wind that I was going for an interview and hated it.

 

 

In the move my spare windshield that I brought with broke. Shitty, now I gotta chase one down before I can drive it around as much as I'd like. Other than that the fucking pumpkn is the man.

,Drove up to eugene, got her insured, got the title sent to me, trip permit in hand, wrestled a fusebox, and now rosie will be my daily driver. I'm a fucking happy man!

 

She's been parked at a coworkers in a different town for 3 months. Feels good to be driving her!

I'm sitting by a window at a pizza place just so I can look!

My PL411 will never be left for dead.

 

I moved from Oregon to Michigan and had to leave it stored outside there for 3 years. Right now I'm balls deep in an engine swap on my 280zx and then she's back on the table.

 

I think I've spent $4500 total moving her around 3 states over the last 5 years but won't give up, I just got her to Michigan last fall.

 

I'm not a mechanic so finding people willing to do the work is impossible

I grew up in Michigan and moved to Oregon 5 years ago. I have to say, if I moved back to the Midwest, Michigan would be at the top of my list.

The unanticiped benefit of a 410 or 411 is that when you pop the engine compartment hood you can see everything you need to know about the ignition and [by now irrelevant] polution control equipment.  Not like a Honda which takes a relativly simple engine and wraps it with miles of vacuum lines!  All unlabled.

I love the engine and we had did the J15 swap awhile ago. Never really ran perfect but I cruised around for a summer in Roseburg.

 

I think though that when I tackle it next Im considering a R16 swap and convert it to a SSS.

 

Even being a non mechanic I can still work on this car though, it's pretty much all common sense
