Leo, It is hard to have pets. Currently we have none as the last LasaOpso recently passed on after 16 years. She must have been abut 112 in human years. I have lost two others to vehicles and finally learn to curb train my dogs. This last one would walk the blocks of our street and never...

Stan and GGM8's, I lived in Arlington for a couple years and visited the TOTUS on two occasions. It is sobering and was for us visitors a very somber spectacle. The most impressive for me was the Vietnam Wall and all the names. It is difficult to relate the emotions that one goes through...

Have not changed the gear oil at 70K. I did add the Prolong Trany treatment at about 25K and hope it helps over the lifetime. I may change it next oil change however now that you made me think about it again. Differential oil is easily changed by service company, I don't have the inclination...

Wow guys, I was asleep at the stick on this one. I told Stan we could meet at my place and then left him hanging in the breeze I guess. Sorry Stan. I got caught up in a construction project here at home. Anyone know any contractors that can build retaining walls (wood or concrete) and...

Craig, Is Tommy the fellow that we met at the Dublin run? He looked like a GGM8 kind of guy. Bobber :)

Craig, Chad, John, and all the rest of the gang. This outing sounds great. We have been wanting a "Mechanics Day" for a while. I will try to arrange my time, my family is planning a home BBQ etc. Which day are you planning for the fleet to arrive, Saturday or Sunday? Hope to see you then...

Here is another idea from the Z guys. http://www.zonc.org/Calendar/BlackhawkAutoShow2004.html Blackhawk museum. :)

Choclate Days Stan and Craig, Here is an idea tht I picked off the 300ZX Club postings. " Oakdale Chocolate Festival outing. ZONC is planning a Drive to the Oakdale Chocolate Festival on May 15th. Participation in the car show is $20 for one day and $30 for both days with an additional $5...

Nothing to say? OK, I finished the Z31 repairs and it is running well. Next I will update the injector wiring with new connectors as some are corroded. Otherwise on the Mark VIII front, I have not been able to repair the CD Changer. I bought a used one on eBay and it at least processes the...

maxmk8, When it comes right down to it your right. The cost is prohibitive. That is why you don't see them on every street corner. I guess that is why I will probably never have one. Otherwise I put it in the same catogory as the "Near Exotics". Fancy and uncommon but not a practical...

Sandy, Thanks for the site, very interesting car. They have stayed true to the front end over the years. Bob

Well, it looked like someone knew how to go fast, ~175 ain't just looking pretty. Bob :)

My son's nova went away when a deer took out the right front bumper,fender and ended up in the windshield. Sold it. We did have plans for it but. :'(

Sorry to say that Marauder looks like a warmed over Marques (sp?). The only thing attrative are the rims. Bob

I guess if I had $3M to spend on a car I would not worry about all the cuurves and nooks and cranies that have to be cleaned every time its washed. Can you imagine what the engine compartment looks like. What about the electrical system. One could spend another $3M just maintiaining it. It...

Sandy, I can only wish at this time but maybe one day. I have always admired the specials and since the first Avanti they have been intesting. A friend had an old one and let it go to a restorer a few years ago and that was my last practical chance to have one. Until your post I had virtually...

Sandy, Do you have an Avanti? That looks interesting. By the way I corrected the misspelled "Infiniti" in my signature. Thanks for the comment. Bob :)

In LA; cruising La Cieniga, the canyon, La Habra, Century and Van Nuys boulevards you will be in style. All the hookers and lookers will love your ride. When you hit Santa Monica or Venice you better bold the fin down or the car is toast, they even steal false teeth! Good show car, expensive...

Wow, you guys did a job. Restoring a car that has real value is always fun. Nice job guys. I look forward to seeing your buddy on the road with us next outing. Bob
