My equation was how many M22's out of all manual shift Z's. Your equation was how many M22 of all Z's.

I am surprised the high rate of M22 vs M21 for Canadian cars, 45% of manual trans being M22. I don't find the ratio that high for US cars advertised as 4 speed Z's. Maybe some people don't know that have a crusher, and or original trans is gone? 1- Total units imported - 2,100 out of 68,651...

Color, interior, all original parts still there? How about some pictures

This was the reason for the Pside fender stamping, the short lived air induction for late 74 / 75 air induction

Ò Thank you BD.

I don't disagree with this stance although, if selling a performance vehicle, do you demonstrate its performance? If so, great. But if not, what would be accepted from a buyer's standpoint,, just hearing the exhaust and assume the horsepower behind the rumble? To me, it's apparent some level of...

That's the lesson I learned although the buyer is still susceptible to the seller saying sure, "I'll go thru the gears a couple of times", but then the test turns into Driving Miss Daisy.

In my case, a plane was necessary thus I would assume furthering my intent and seriousness about a.purchase.

Hadn't thought of that, we shall find out.

COPO, I agree 100%, that would be sufficient to make the sale, and not even 6k, 5k would do. During the mellow driving, let go of the wheel to show it drives straight, as well hit the brakes to show it doesn't pull, after that, the money comes out of my pocket.

So the pad isn't poured first?

Fair enough and I also agree but, what would a potential buyer be expected to be satisfied with if the seller won't even hit 3k RPM's, even after being asked, "do you ever shift at 4k?", and the response is a snicker, while the person in the passenger seat is holding the advertised price in his...

I agree, out of sight out of mind for most potential buyers. I assume to get to test drive, one would need to agree to pay full price and never press the pedal on the right to a level not agreed upon prior, although anybody could lie to those questions and see where the chips fall. A local buyer...

Nicely stated, Thank you.

I think the issue involves my background vs text color, I will try to fix. Maybe the moderators can remove my duplicate post.

I wonder why this has occurred, here are screen shots

I realize I am likely preaching to the choir on buying a car which is distant, but nonetheless, I thought I would describe my recent experience. I traveled multiple states to look at a supposed 70Z, for likely purchase. It's an LA Z thus no cowl tag Z data, no build sheet and the front pad...

BA, what is the reason for the piece-meal parts swap?

So BA, you swapped upper headers after initial assembly was complete? After swap, all body lines retained their desired positions? Just worried, sometimes you take the jigsaw apart, it doesn't always go back together as nice. Thanks again.

Thanks BA, I was hoping you would respond, so much so when I wrote my question I said to myself, I bet BA responds considering his expertise with RS noses.
