  3. I have one from my 82 ZX parts car that is in good shape. It has the booster and master cylinder that came from a running car (still hooked up) for $25 plus shipping.
  4. I have a full set from my 82 N/A that you got the radio from. The car ran a few months ago so they should be good. I have them listed for $25 and could throw them in the radio box for no extra shipping. Chris

    4.6L??

    I thought I saw somewhere that a 4 bbl manifold was available for the 4.6L motor, but I didn't research it. This would eliminate the EFI computer programming issues and probably add a few horsies like it does on the roller 5.0L motors.
  9. Yikes, what is he.....10 years old ??
  10. My dream garage would have several old FORDS like the 70 Mustang KR500, the 65 Shelby AC Cobra, a 63 Thunderbolt Fairlane, but I think the new Ford GT with the aluminum 5.4 would have to be my favorite.
  11. Racing down the freeway entrance ramp towards slow holiday traffic, #5 refused to lift, knowing that #36 was going to take the brunt of the hit.
  12. I voted silver for the ease of keeping it clean looking. Darker colors always look dirty, and create alot more summer heat while sitting in a parking lot.
  13. "I'd love to know what wound up working best..." -OR- Did the "smokin hot sister" deliver on the 3 way ???
  14. I think for the budget minded individual looking to do a V8 swap, the 75-78 Datsun Z is a better choice than the more rare and expensive, not to mention weaker/delicate 240Zs. The 302 is the way to go, because of the availability of the motor/transmissions, the power upgrades, the lighter starting weight, the front distributor (better weight dist), and how easy they are to work on. The JTR rear tranny crossmember with the exhaust cutouts is actually designed and built for the Chevy 350, but with redrilling only a couple mounting holes, will accept the Ford T-5, so that is a plug-n-play item. As far as stiffening up the body/chassis on a 280, I would definately go with front and rear strut tower braces that will also improve the handling a bit. When looking at potential cars to do this swap into, look real close at the entire length of the frame rails for rot (take a screwdriver and poke around), or areas where the car has bottomed out and the rails are crushed. In either case, I would replace the section of rail with new just for the piece of mind it would give me. It seems like the most common area for frame rail rust is visible in the front wheel wells behind the front tires where all the road debris, water, and salt have hit it for years.
  15. How much do you like driving......i'm in Ohio ??
  16. "This is maybe the 10th time and she was going to let me go but she called me in anyway and found out I had 4 of them". So let me get this straight........you've been pulled over 10 times recently for infractions, and still choose to take your chances.......WOW, i've been pulled over maybe twice in 20 years and just got warnings.
  17. I have the coil, and a passenger side heated, power mirror from my 82 ZXT. email me at CKelly1965@aol.com
  18. Thanks man, I just may get a set.....I was impressed when I went to look at the 240Z that I bought last year and the 75 year old man who owned it pushed the car out away from the back corner of his shop by himself.
  19. I have both for $40 plus shipping email me at CKelly1965@aol.com
  20. Somehow, Bobby Labonte of NASCAR fame actually won a Winston cup championship (before they were all referred to as Sprint cup championships like Winston never existed).........with a bright green and black Pontiac sponsored by Interstate Batteries. I love those colors, and actually painted my alcohol racing cart in the #18 interstate Batteries colors and was very succsesful with it also.
  21. Car looks great, it really looks like the 78 that I had up until last year (I.E. my username). The pics looked good, but where's the pics of the GF??
  22. I still have the set for $85 shipped, and they are removed and rust free.
  23. I have an 83 ZX turbo fan and clutch in good shape $15 plus shipping (UPS ground rates) contact me at CKelly1965@aol.com
