Zdoctor,
I sent it in a few times over the last month..... but nothing. It will be interesting to see what happens. Overall, I think they do a nice job on this board but, like everyone else, they probably get swamped from time to time. Thanks for the kind words on the 83T. I wouldn't mind seeing those twins. Just post them here.

Have you shared the left lane today?
A:
That 83 turbo of JML's has about 50k on the clock and looks new inside and out!
It definitely deserves to be the "Car of the Quarter"!

thanx ok heres it goes well the one with 48k miles i bought from nevada off the orig owner garaged all its life and stunning condition in and out the only thing ive been doing is starting to detail the engine bay., my 11k mile one what a story i was scrolling through aol autos and i see this z ad with no pic but it said 11k miles so i called the dodge dealer and asked about it. knowing that the only 88zxt that had grey cloth was a collectible. he said it was indeed grey recarros. i asked him on friday night if he would hold the car until sunday( it was getting e bayed monday) and he agreed to hold it over the weekend. this car makes my 48k mile one look like a parts car..lol its that clean. when i saw it i knew i had to get it.
the only thing is it has 2 door dings on the passanger door im not sure if i want to fix it since its never been touched. the 48k mile one i had for over a year now the 11k mile one ive had about 6 months. not sure i may sell the 48k mile twin to get a s2k in laguna blue or red.....not sure but maybe. well see what happens but no matter what i doubt ill sell the 11k mile one for the next few years anyway. this way i still have my 83 currently being restored and one shiro.

A:
I think this thread might just be almost as good as a car of the month. In fact, on those months when there is no new car we should take it upon ourselves to post our cars in a "Z car of the month thread". Post them no matter how they look and do your own write up. That's my view and I'm sticking to it. NOW WHO'S WITH ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Z doctor,
No,no,no EVERYBODY posts pictures of their Z with their write up. That way we get the garage queens, the work in progress projects and the "one step from the hook" beauties. And, as a bonus courtesy of LA 260Z, we get the "Red Neck Z of The Month." I say we give the board one more day then take matters into our own hands. Are you with me!!!!

JML77280Z , Thanks for put in up with me, DO NOT take far away pictures of your car, yours is not a "20 footer", congratulations n since is not a renewable source put as many miles as you can :); I own the exactly same car/color/year/options/condition, mine is 60.000 miles older so some respect please :), do to use the gorgeous swede/leather seats are been redone in some sort of cloth/velvet type. tip: repaint the gear knob liberaly with that vinyl spray n LEAVE the knob in your back yard for a week or two n will never peel off ( at least worked for me)
