Well my strut bar says "40th anniversary" So I'll leave that but good idea on the hoses

I know the rad ones and the smaller ones near the engine cover are pretty easy, I hear the rest are a pita to get to

Drove it to the dentist this morning. Went home and worked for a bit and was going to go for a drive over lunch but then it got real dark and started pouring. The weather this year is no bueno.

Been on travel all week and arrive home tonight at around 11:00 PST. Z's been at home waiting to be driven. Just can't wait. Good luck to my neighbors tonight.

Left it at home in the garage and took my little girl to the mountains in the Altima to hang with my parents for the weekend. Got a text from the wife a bit ago that she was heading out to dinner with a girlfriend and taking the Z.

Always take the Z unless your little one is too little to be in the front seat.

Very cool fastback. The wheels are too tiny though.

Not a fan of dipped wheels. Time to paint it. Not a fan of powder coating either. Not as smooth as paint allowing dust and grime build up.
