New member here, just found the site, looks like a pretty good place with lots of info. I'm 21, been into cars since I was about 15 when I got my first car (1946 CJ2A). Love the older cars, can't stand ricers, but I guess my car is a vintage ricer so I can't complain too much. Anyways, here's my car, not the most convenient daily driver but I guess I can manage. Here she is in her present condition:

And a shot of the left side (engine bay has since been gutted and cleaned):

Right side (not as interesting, I know):

And lastly, the interior (Not as clean as it has been, but not as dirty either):

And the sunset glam shots with a Steamboat Springs backdrop...

Z cars are my favorite, picked this one up for $3,250 in Steamboat Springs almost 3 years ago. My new found passion is some of the Datsun trucks, mainly the 521 and the 620. I am actually going to look at a 521 tomorrow, hopefully a '74 620 sometime next week. Hooray tax returns...

Just threw on some new tires, but have been contemplating about an MSD 6AL paired with a Blaster II coil and a 280Z distributor (going electronic ignition). I have been looking into getting the Pertronix Ignitor kit as well, though we'll see. I actually just went to look at a '74 620 in the area, if everything goes smoothly I might be the new owner within the week.
