  1. Offer him $2,000. The Z looks pretty decent to me. I have seen Z's alot worse for more $.

    no more go

    good luck on getting it back together.
  3. I bet when driving that thing, your butt must drag the pavement.
  4. the pics are now working! Looks like a nice project. Good luck!
  5. I used to dislike body kits on a Z in the past, But I really, really, like the yours turned out. The body/paint work look fabulous. I admit that I don't know jack about RB26's, but the one J. Soileau posted looks simply wicked and would look great in your Z! Good luck!
  6. It'll be fine and hopefully you'll be better than new. Thanks for the nice thought. I guess I am going to need a good ankle to mash the loud pedal on my Z when I get one!
  7. Thanks for the replies guys. Yes it is a serious operation. It sucks though because I am only 35. If I don't get it done though, further injury/problems are sure to occur. So, I really don't have a choice. I go in for an MRI on Aug. 22, then the doc's first available date for surgery is Oct. 9, unless there would be a cancellation. Ironically, this is the same date I had the first surgery done 4 years ago. Different Doc, diff state. Hey Doc, how did the hunting trip turn out?
  8. about this, then check it out....http://www.collectorcartraderonline.com seems to be some good deals there. There is a Z with a caddy 500 for $800! Anyway, check it out.
  9. Have you had any weakness or problems from the tendon removal?
  10. OK, so I have had ongoing problems with my right ankle for years. It started years ago when I crashed a motorcycle, (lack of experience). Since then I have reinjured it numerous times. It doesn't take much, just stepping on a lego, or on the expansion joint in a sidewalk is all it takes. Anyway, I went to see an orthopedic surgeon this past Tuesday. He did some regular as well as stress x-rays, and the lateral ligaments are completely torn. I had surgery on the same ligaments 4 years ago, obviously it didn't work. He suggests we do a hamstring autograft. Holes are drilled in the ends of the 3 bones in the ankle, then a piece of the hamstring tendons tkaen from the same leg are routed through the holes and surtured together and to the bone. Yes, a pretty serious operation. Anyone have any experience with this, or know anything about it? Good, bad, or otherwise, I would like to hear it. Thanks, and take care. Jason
  11. It looks like those headers fit pretty good. The BBC looks great in the engine bay. Does it look like you will have hood clearance issues? Good luck, and get er' done!

    Any updates on the problem? Just curious.
  13. The SBC fits a whole lot better than I thought it would! Those headers custom?
  14. I apologize if it is a repost. Anyway, I found this link very interesting..... http://www.datsunhistory.com/Roadsterstory.html Check it out if you haven't seen it already.
  15. You could probably put several Z's into that engine!
  16. check it out on ebay, item #260017208028. It looks like a decent part. Although I don't now how well it would work on a daily driver.
  17. These cars would be perfect!
  18. Are these the origins of the current "rice" movement? Everyone has their own tastes, and I hope I don't offend anyone when I say those S30 Z's are absolutely hideous!!! Almost as ugly as Tammy Faye Baker on a good day. They look like something from a cheesy early 80's show.
