No he looked at my car for a split second after I asked him if he was ok and that was that.

Don't sweat trying to fix it before Canby. It honestly doesn't look that bad.. a good body guy should be able to fix it.

Gonna hopefully make the trip to Datsloco swapmeet show and shine in Manteca, California and on the way pick up a new fender and hood from a 810 buddy. If anyone knows of a 240mm flywheel from 280zx Turbo or 280zx 2+2 let me know I'm looking to buy one.

IIRC the 720s had 240mm too... (at least the one with naps z24 motors me thinks)


edit. yeah... just looked up a clutch for an 84 4x4 720, 240mm 24 spline. should plop right in there. should help you expand your search... just in case.

Not much has been going on been too broke but I need to do brakes and thinking of redoing the brakes lines as well as the e-brake cable. My struts need replacing might rebuild them and use fork oil to make them a little stiffer heard works well and saves money at least until I have money to do coilovers. I haven't addressed the front damage but hopefully when my uncle gets back in town I'll see if he can help fix it. I post some pics from Canby never got around doing that.
