  1. You're scaring me man! You're probably saving me from another lawn ornament so I'll probe the dude a bit and keep your sound advise in mind...God knows I need another car like I need another hole in my head...Which is what my girlfriend would give me if I brought another "project" home. A basket case dime is enough right?:unsure:
  2. Congrats...Your Z rocks and I wish you many years of marital bliss!

    78 280z

    I have a vehicle posted on Craigslist for trade and someone has offered me a 78 Z in trade for it... I've done some searching around and an hour or so of random interewebs sleuthing trying to figure out what to watch for and how much these things typically go for. So far I've figured out that I should probably pay attention to the hatch and quarter panels for rust issues. Seems the rockers get nasty too. Is there anything else I should look out for? The guy says he has the intake off of it and it's been sitting for 2 years. Kinda sends up flags so I'll grill him on the mechanicals and take a good hard look at that. Prolly do a compression check too. Wish I had a way to check the heater issue 'cause I've read in several places that some kinda valve is pretty hard to get and prone to failure. I've got $500 into the vehicle I will trade so I'm pretty sure I'd come out OK if/when I get it on the road and decide I don't like it enough to keep it. The cheapest driver I've found was a grand...Seems crappy ones average a bit more then that. So...What should I look out for? Are they hard to get tune up and brake parts for? Seems like they should be OK to get stuff for as they aren't that old... P.S. I'd certainly prefer a 240 or 260 but the 280 looks i-ite with no bumpers and an airdam up front...
  4. Just made a trip up I-90 and found some kick ass spots...Lake Easton State Park was pretty cool...But I REALLY liked Denny Creek.
  5. I-ite y'all...I'm home and 'bouts ta get my drink on!...Come on over!
