    retail

    no retail, since no dealers/stores carry it in stock as a regular model but private party value would be ~5k. not enough specs given, and no pictures. so, could be more, could be less. technically, as much as the buyer is willing to pay for it to make the seller sell it
  2. http://www.zhome.com has a good write up on what to look for when buying a Z
  3. with enough money and fabrication skills anything is possible. Bottom of the page, stats Are you talking about 2 piston floating calipers, like Ross's big brake kit? 4 piston calipers have a disadvantage, and that is weight. For a Z, the 2 piston slider will work better than the 4x4 swap 0-20 bucks. I've found Zs in junkyards with 1" sway bars that I got for $15. regular side vents. I can't find the pic of the other vents though. THey were 2 horizontal slits right below the rear hatch window Yes. Gross SAE rating. Averaged out to about 130hp @ crank using NET SAE, or 110@wheels 2 mile marker Depends on what kind of quality you want. TO properly repaint the car, it should be stripped, etched, primered, painted, and clearcoated
  4. in case some of you guys are wondering, this is what my turn markers look like: Lockhart Philips for $20 for the pair with wiring and dual filament orange bulbs. in reference to Matt73GNZ... do your turn signals look like this? Saw that on a gt40 replicar at kitcar show
  5. LOL! $260k in bay area won't get you a townhouse
  6. Jury orders Ford to pay $61 million to teen's family in SUV crash 11/16/2005, 10:09 p.m. ET By JENNIFER KAY The Associated Press MIAMI (AP) — A jury has ordered Ford Motor Co. to pay more than $61 million to the family of a 17-year-old boy killed in a roll-over accident when his friend fell asleep while driving an Explorer. Ford was liable in the accident because it sold a vehicle with poor handling and stability, the jury said Tuesday. The company planned to appeal, a spokeswoman said Wednesday. The family of Lance Crossman Hall claimed Ford knew the Explorer was prone to roll-overs and failed to warn consumers about the vehicle's defects. Ford blamed defective Firestone tires for the Explorer's handling and stability problems, and the company knowingly continued to produce unsafe vehicles, Bruce Kaster, an attorney for the family, said Wednesday. "This tragic accident occurred when the driver of the vehicle fell asleep at the wheel while traveling at highway speeds. Real-world experience and testing show that the Explorer is a safe vehicle, consistently performing as well as or better than other vehicles in its class," Ford spokeswoman Karen Shaughnessy said. Hall was reclining in the front passenger seat and wearing his seat belt when the Explorer rolled over four times on State Road 93 in Collier County near Naples in April 1997. He was ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene. The driver of the 1996 Explorer, Melahn Parker, was charged with careless driving. Parker attempted to regain control of the vehicle, but a handling problem with the Explorer caused it to turn sideways, which triggered the roll-over, Kaster said. "Ford vehicles are supposed to be designed to slide out in an emergency situation, not roll over, and that's according to Ford's own internal criteria," Kaster said. "But the Explorer is one of their vehicles that will not meet their own criteria. It will roll over." The jury ordered Ford to pay the family $1.2 million in damages, and $60 million for the pain and suffering of Hall and his mother, Joan Hall-Edwards. Ford was not ordered to pay punitive damages
  7. uhm... how is he planning on stopping without calipers?
  8. Sending him graphic x-rated pictures of you and your gf would be a bad idea. If I was in the guy's shoes, first thing I'd do is send the copies to gf's parents...
