You in the military or just relocate? Because your plates are California...
Hmm... I did some checking on that car... and I'm going to have to call BS on that being "your" Z... I spoke with Mike Lee about his Z, which is shown in the photos above... He still owns it, and he still lives in Orange County, CA. All the info is you listed is a direct copy from his "Rides" page on TT.Net...

So unless you have a more current photo... in a local spot... or some other way to substantiate you actually own that Z... stop saying its yours because its rather pathetic, and an insult to the owner.
