My wife pulled a 1 inch metal wire out of my foot yesterday after working on the car...

And to stay on topic I'll add a recent pic





It will hopefully be back together by the end of the week.

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah I've been super busy for the past few months shopping for and buying a new house, getting the old one ready to sell, and generally ignoring the Z. Then after months of ignoring it I was forced to drive it from the old house to the new house and it was like, hey, this car is still pretty fun to drive! And finally having my own driveway to park it in is pretty cathartic, too.

Thanks! I really want to sell the Z but haven't 100% convinced myself yet, but my time here may be limited. In the meantime I'll ***** out as many pics as possible!

No I was so happy to see you kept it too. But I understand, bigger and better things. Congrats on the home purchase by the way.

Definitely keep the Z. Speaking to friends who have sold theirs and end up in 'nicer' cars always find themselves disappointed for getting rid of it. It's something that you can always fall back to and have fun, they're really great cars all around I'd say.

And at the price they sell for, its really not worth getting rid of.

(The amount of fun to have in a Z) > $6,000

It's a valid point, but it's the value of the LE37t wheels in good condition sitting on there that I'd really like to recover : )

Sell them. LE37 should be a pretty big hit on this forum

Right, but it's partially the wheels that really sell the look of the car, so if I lose the wheels I may as well sell the car. You can see the quagmire that I'm in here!
