Throwing in the towel

Well my fellow Z' ers. I am throwing in the towel. Just for the moment. My job and the 3KGT take up all my time. I need my garage back, as some punk a$$ kids broke into my beloved 3KGT and stole my stereo last night. Chased them barefoot for 9 blocks, in a T-shirt and boxers, with a hastly grabbed hammer, through yards and everything, only for them to throw my Poineer flip down. Bastards. So in a couple days I'll get both of those hulks towed out. I am not giving up on the Z. I will wait to get another one, in alot better condition. It sucks, but it is the best possible move for me right now. I put alot of work into them just to get defeated by time. And the 3KGT, is just too valuable to me, to leave her out at night. So if anyone wants anything let me know. I will still be around the boards, to see everyone's beautiful Z's. I know it sucks, but it is what I have to do. I'll find another Z in the future, perferably running. So LaterZ

Man that sucks to hear about your 3000GT. It also sucks about the Z. I understand what you're saying. It gets to a point where it's not worth it.

If you're parting out, is it possible I could get the set of tail lights from ya? I'm assuming that they're the older style lights that didn't have the pin striping. I've been trying to find a pair of those for a while now.

Mother Beetches! Man... I know what ya mean tho. I walked out of my buddy's house at 2am once, to find a couple of thugs trying to jack his subs from the back seat of his truck. They hopped back in their car & were already down the street before I could get my car turned around. Now I wish I had just done a karatie kick right into the side of their car & bust out a couple windows.

Anyway bro-ski. There's always another project on the horizon!

I'll cut the roof off. Why not?? You can have both of my slicktops.

1 of my tails has a crack in it. If you still want em, I'll pull em and send em on down.

Sorry to hear about that man, good luck with everything. We all know you'll get another one eventually. You've been bitten by the bug.
