So, I noticed B. Conrad on a service call next door over the Summer, so I ran over to talk to him. He's got quite a story on this car, I've not read the whole thread - but suffice to say that its been through a few engines!!! Honestly, I was more interested in his health - he damn near died last year when his heart exploded....

I was going thru some old posts last night and noticed a while back KGR posted about a original Z he found. That car was built 11D and mine was built 11C. Here are pictures of the trans stamps interesting how close the assembly dates are. I didnt know how to copy the pictures so I took a picture of them on my computer screen.

John, take off one of the fuel line clips and see if it is blue behind the clip, and brand new black on the frame. The combination of those two things being evident will tell you the 3/8 fuel line was never changed.

I had to take the engine out of the car so I took a tracing of the trans and compared it to the engine.
