Hello, my name is Michael (obviously). I own a '92 Hardbody /w the KA24E, and a '86 Z31 (300ZX) /w the VG30E (duh)

The Hardbody:



It has 77,xxx miles on it atm.



The Z:
The Z is currently in a restoration/modification process. It has about 143,000 on it and couldn't run any better.




Z31 /w VG30ET, Hardbody /w KA24E

Welcome, fellow HB dude. Is that rope holding the rear bumper up?

Welcome to the board Michael. My only Nissan is a Datsun 280ZXT right now (4 sale BTW) so it's always good to see another vintage Z guy hanging around. For offroading I herd a sheep.

I have a 71' datsun 240Z along with my hardbody. The Z has taken a back seat the past for years.

One day I'll get the Z bug again and start rebuilding her.

The tail gate stays sometimes it falls. Thats why i have them there..as a safety. I have some stuff back there, like 2 hardbody wheels (the chromed ones), a spare spoiler (OEM) for my Z, a valve cover for a VG30E (Z31 distributor style)..etc

Moved on to low speed motorsports. Going as fast as this car will go will land you in the clinker in all 50 states. Enjoyed wrenching and building on it for many years but I have some bills to pay and I'm too much into wheeling anymore to ever get the Z bug again.
