Guest kc6wfs Posted December 28, 2002 Share Posted December 28, 2002 Well got off my butt and got the Z off the trailer and out of the garage finally. Went and drove a few of the neighbors around the block. A few "Rockford 180's" and standing stop full floor burnouts later down the road up through 3rd at 90+mph, everyone said COOL!!!!! Many came up when I fired it up. All got a ride... All in all, it's a great way to meet new neighbors. Most everyone out here is a NHRA or NASCAR fan. Well I'm still shaking from all the fun and driving her for the 1st time in too many months. She sure seems a LOT faster out here.. Must have had her too rich out in CA.. Happy new years everyone................ Anyone in PX area my number is 623 907-5424 brake the ice. I need Z friends out here.....

Guest zfan Posted December 29, 2002 Share Posted December 29, 2002 Have fun in Phoenix, it's a very nice place. I'd say a real cool place but if you know the summers there well then you would know cool doesn't fit well. I'm hopefully coming out for the Barrett-Jackson car auction/I do it every year for the last 3 or 4 years. My parents are going to retire to Prescott in 2 years. It is a little cooler there in the summers due to 5k elevation but only 80 minutes from Phoenix. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Neil Posted December 29, 2002 Share Posted December 29, 2002 I can relate (kind of). I've owned my '76 280 Z for over a year and a half and got to drive it for the first time yesterday! I payed $275 for it, towed to to the shop, droped lots o cash, and finally got it to a point where it would pass VA inspection. Lots of work still to do, though.
