Default Yearly Report from oldest 350Z owner on the site

Turned 83 yesterday. Still healthy. Me and my 86 year old wife are social distancing Like everyone else. Going out to shop once a week and waiting for things to get better. My 2006 Z has 130,000 miles on it. New ball joints and control arms this year that significantly tightened steering and front end. Had to replace liners behind front fenders. Clips holding them in place were worn off by me scraping over concrete parking space barriers and they were falling into the wheel well. No longer scraping over concrete barriers. Aside from that, the car is running fine. With all the time on my hands I finally waxed the car after many years. Still love the car and getting compliments on it. Be back to you next year. I hope the social distancing will be over.

Happy Birthday to you. I'm glad to hear everything is going well for you. I guess I am the second oldest person on this site. I'll be 77 in November.

Congrats on your good health and still keeping an interest in the hobbies! We have a guy who is 83 who races remote control boats in my club. He still has some of the fastest boats on the water!

Happy birthday Bob and many blessings too!
I just turned 65 last April and drive a 2005 Enthusiast. We must be two enthusiastic Z car owners. Pun intended! LOL
