It definitely did spark my interest in Z's =)

Here is a picture of it. It could definitely use a paint job:

Mine was oxidized silver and I had the 300 instead of the 350. I like your Z past, may it continue. I did repaint it later in life. It looked sharp.

This is my own repost from elsewhere :

Yesterday was close to 100 degrees. At 6AM it was 76*. So driving home at four in the after noon the fog starts to roll in. By the time I get home the roads are wet and some people have their wipers on. As usual a Mustang is holding up traffic, A Lexus 330, me, a Subaru Forester, and finally a Ford 150 or similar 80's truck.

The 330 and took the other direction and in the final mile home, I was alone. I really like the new Michelins. I turned the VDC on, as it was wet and set the light off at one point. May have saved me and might be the usual flash when its off. But I do not recall it going off in this particular place.
