Nice looking Z! Welcome to the forum.

I bought my Z about 2 months ago, and had a little bit of good weather left before winter ruined all my fun. Hopefully winter ends soon!

Wish I could drive today or at least next week, but with snow and sand all over the roads I'm thinking ill have to wait a while. Gives me time to buy parts and put them on I guess.
