Good evening

[Davidsw]

Hi new here this week . I have just bought a car from a member here . Always wanted a 240z and after 30 years of racing cars and building them a restored car would save me the pain and just leave some easy days out on my days off . Looking forward to chewing the grass .

Thank you

Welcome !...

Welcome David
Any pictures please

 

[Davidsw]

I will do . It was from Neil , Fairlineguy I don’t have it yet . It was advertised here

 

[MCBladeRun]

I wondered if that was the car you'd bought. Welcome to our club. Where are you based? Lots of meets and events coming up

 

[Davidsw]

I’m near Oxford , well 20 mins from Bicester scramble . I’ve been there a few times as I’ve worked on cars there .

Great buy, stunning car.

 

[Dale]

Great buy, stunning car.

I’ll second that. Awesome looking car.

Welcome! No pain in that car then, just pleasure!

Was it the bronze one? If so, that's a cracking car. Welcome to the Club and Z ownership.

 

[Davidsw]

Yes it has bronze wheels .

Quite a few classic car meets in an around Oxford eg 6 Bells Warborough, Millets Farm, Kingsley cafe, Dish at Harrell, so maybe meet up in the coming weeks (I’m based in Highworth)

 

[Davidsw]

That would be good thank you .

Ahhh so this is where Neils car went! Top guy Neil, he did most of the assembly on putting mine back together!
You'll have to come with us on our By-Annual Lemans and annual Spa trips David!

Le Mans Classic 2023 centenary event

Can I see Andrew Muir's 260Z 2/2? Or is it a similar car?

[Kieronpollock]

That would be good thank you .

If off to Kingsley cafe in Witney on Saturday and Millets Farm car meet on Sunday (as need to be back by 1pm to Newbury show in out for me 🥹) - want to meet up?

 

[Davidsw]

Ah , it’s broken lol . Just bad luck the servo ( brake pedal ) goes all the way to floor . And guess what I’ve broken my big toe and it bloody hurts so trying to change the servo could be interesting . But I reckon I’ll have a go on changing the servo tomorrow. So I’ve driven it about in miles total .

Millets Farm

Is that the one out Frilford way? If so, I learnt to ride my Yamaha TY50 moped on the tracks there back in the late 70s, before I was 16, as my dad knew the owner.

Yes they have a small meeting monthly on a Thu morning but a couple of times a year they run a Saturday event - just 20 mins down the road from me in Highworth
