SHE WAS A BEAUTY -
HAD A MECHANIC WHO ONLY -- ONLY WORKED ON THESE CARS -
EVERY YEAR, I WOULD GO SEE HIM -
BILL, PLEASE GO OVER MY LADY AND SEE WHAT SHE MIGHT NEED THIS YEAR -
AND HE WAS RIGHT -
SOMETIMES, MAYBE NEXT SHE WILL NEED ________________
BUT, I'LL WATCH IT.
NEVER TOOK MY Z TO THE DEALER -
BILL WAS THE GO-TO MECHANIC FOR THESE CARS -
HE TOLD ME AFTER THE 1984'S CAME OUT -
"YOU HAVE THE LAST YEAR OF Z-CARS THAT ARE EASY TO WORK ON"

COMMENTS UNDER THE NOTE PIC -
film shots of my favorite ride..
1983 Datsun 280ZX Turbo...
with T- tops..
she had a very strong engine..
yearly physical by my man, Bill...
he was right on the money..
knew her inside out and front to back...
I was her 3rd owner..
she got a paint job that glowed (Larry said, "if I find out you run this through a car wash, I'll be on your door-step")..
he's one of those guys (like Bill), who take great pride in their work..
Larry took her down to the metal..
took her wheels over to Tampa to had them re-done..
then, she got her interior fixed up..
loved this car..
my Fair Lady Z..
but, most good things do come to an end..
had a crash with an antique BMW motorcycle (with a side car)..
the bike moved my Z so hard it bent the frame...
ah, but she and I had a good time !
these film photos were taken after her paint job and wheels were done..
if I'd had a digital camera, there would be many more !

STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT HOW I KEPT THE TAG -
WHEN WE CAME TO NORTH CAROLINA -
HAD THE TAG, BUT NORTH CAROLINA HAD ME GIVE THEM THE TAG -
COULDN'T GET THAT NAME ON THE TAG HERE -
BUT JUST ADDED THE NUMBER 2 TO THE END -
