ZR8ED Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Well the project takes its first step in weeks. I've put it off due to weather over the last few weeks. Today, not too warm, but at least its dry out. I finally moved my 240 out of storage and brought it home to clean it up, put the interior back in, lots more clean up, make sure everything still works. etc. I fired her up this morning and let it warm up. I had a tow truck come and pick it up ( no plates) it fired right up, but ran like a pig with no chokes. I needed to make sure it would start because the tow truck was going to drop it off in the steet at my place, and I was going to have to drive it up the driveway and get the car into place. (long hill) There was no way I could push it up the hill if it didn't start. Music to my ears... maybe not the neighbours though... 6-2 open headers. High compression with a cam. It sounded mighty wicked. Well the tow went smoothly. It was kinda tough to get the car up the driveway because it wasn't fully warmed up, so the car didn't want to run under load. Now it sits at home. I can start to put in the new harnesses, and start a major clean up to get it ready for the road. Now I can start to put some time into working on it in my spare time. Wahoo! summer is inching closer for me. They are going to think I'm nuts at work here tonight with a perma grin on my face all night! hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev it up and dump da clutch! Black stripes are in fashion this year, I hear. All the best driveways are wearing them. You didn't want to get invited to your neighbor's Christmas party this year anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruxGNZ Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Do you have any new pictures of the 240Z? If I remember right it was a '70 very early production, correct? !M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
