Q:
My Z was good all year so I (Santa) got it a cold air induction filter, new AFM hoses, and bushing for the shifter. I think my Z will be very happy Christmas morning.
Oh yeah, I got the family something too. They've been good also.
Merry Christmas.

I finally found a somewhat local salvage source. The local yards do not have anything as old as S30's and your not allowed to go in back anymore.
280B 5-speed gearbox
3:70 open diff
Rebuilt half shafts with NSK U-joints and grease nipples
Spare P79 head –some plug threads are gaffed but for $50 bucks can’t complain Heli-coil should fix them up
Probably going back for more junk in a few weeks

A:
I have received a very good quality car cover (the $80 variety) from my oldest son and I was lucky enough to keep the california car duster gift at last weeks reverse drawing during our Z Club Xmas party. Both gifts will be well needed after the paint job is complete.
Heading to the inlaws now and I have a feeling there are more "Z things" waiting under the tree for in the morning.
Gotta love Christmas time!!!!!!!! Woohooo!!!!!!!!!!!
From my family to all of yours.......MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just got back inside a few minutes ago from setting the Z down for a long Winter's nap, in the barn after a 10 mile spirited drive on (finally) dry roads.
I have front, and rear strut tower braces to install, and a ZX 5 speed to install when it isn't 20 degrees.

Well considering it's been apart in the garage for the last few months I guess it's getting a lot of stuff come spring, but my actual Christmas present for it was those little Z tire stem caps!! haha
