81bluestreak had a great idea about finded zers close to home. I live in Williams County and would like to find some local people to talk to and check out there rides.
Williams county, isnt that near Bryan, Ohio? I am East of Findlay, South of Fostoria, Ohio. I have a black 78 280Z with chrome wheels, currently torn into 1000 pieces in my garage for a motor refurbishing and update. I know of several other owners on this site who are also in the NW Ohio region, several of whom I have met and bench raced with. E-mail me and lets chat!
I live on the OH/WV/KY border in Ashland, KY across the river from Ironton, OH and Southpoint, OH(lawrence co.) and Huntington WV.
My brother lives in the Findlay area, you might know him hes a big(6'3 300+) red-headed guy who works at an expandable bead factory. I only seen two Zs up that way a nice 280ZX and a decent dark green 280Z on the way to put-in bay. I seen LOADS of RX-7s though.
The only other person I know of in OH @zcar.com is Scott 83ZX I think he lives in Columbus.
There is are two clubs in the state that I know of. The Z Car Club of Ohio is basically out the the southern half of the state. Columbus (with pretty active chapter), Dayton, Cincinnati, and N. Kentucky. The other club is ZACO Z Association of Cleveland Ohio. I'm in Findlay but am currently the Secretary of the ZCCO. I've met CKelly78Z, he's not far from where I live, and now finding others in Findlay area. Email and I can get you phone #'s and locations on whichever club you might be interested in. Also you can go to http://www.zcca.org/ and there is a listing of almost all of the regional clubs.
I'm on the other side of the state,Warren in the NE corner. A guy at the local Pep Boys has a few Z's but hardly ever drives them. Other than that I don't see any other first gen cars. I drive mine all year round whenever it's dry,which it isn't today! Man it's snowing like **** out there now.
Im here about an hour from columbus in Mt Vernon Ohio. Im ZedEquis79 on AOL AIM chat, if anyone else has that client. [email protected] will work too. My 79ZX is currently out with a leaky radiator :\ I'd love to get together tho, and check out some other ppls rides!
I'm planning on making my annual spring trip to Norwalk dragway in Norwalk Ohio sometime in April for test & tune with my 78 280Z. I will E-mail you when i am going to go.
