One of these days, I'm gonna own a Zcar again. I had a bright red '71 240Z when I was much younger. It was probably the most fun I ever had driving a car.

  3. Years ago when I was just married a coworker used to drive me home in a Z. I loved it - I never got one. :)
    This is a gorgeous car and the red foliage in the background is a little extra punch in the photo.
    SWEET!

  4. Nice car...I'd love to take it for a spin. The person I baby sat for used to drive me home in a Z in the early 70s. I was home in a flash. It went fast ;-)

  5. The trees in the background totally make the shot.

  6. The 240Z was a classic, inline six and stunning style. The current Z is nice, and probably faster, but not as classic as the original. Nice ruby!

  9. In 1964 I had a fire engine red 1959 Olds Super 88 2-door hardtop. Those were the days.

  10. It is a very pretty shiny red. It's funny how time changes things. You've gone from having the most fun driving a car to representing "your place" with an easy chair...reclined even. ;~)

  11. Sandee: It is very red, and so was my first one.

    Eden: I've always been a sucker for a red sports car.

    Carletta: Yes, the foliage was an added bonus.

    AuntieE: Yes, indeed.

    Patti: I have always love the Zcar. "Quick" is the operative word for this machine.

    Travis: Thank you sir. A little fall foliage never hurt any capture.

    Ralph: The 240Z has aged much better than I, for sure.

    Happily Retired Girl: VaROOOOOM!!!!

    Leora: The do help set the tone of the photo, don't they.

    Tulsa Gentleman: A '59 Olds...now there's a car for sure.

    Meika: I loved mine.

    Hip Chick: Well, the recliner just seemed appropriate for the winter months, but yes, it is mine...and yes, I have slowed down a little over the years.

  13. Thanks for stopping by this morning! I love the chair in your header. We need a recliner for our family room!!

    The red Z is great. I had a friend in the early 80s who only drove Zs. We had so much fun on our trips to the beach, especially when she got one that had T tops! Thanks for the memories!
