I've still got a '70 240Z. One of the originals. Playing is different than driving.

I don't want to drive it anywhere. The performance clutch is harsh on the left thigh if you try to use it to commute.

I hear that. I once drove a 3200# Hays pressure plate on the street. The car was a legal B MP machine. Even a strong kid like me had a twitching leg at a long light. The neutral gate was always inviting. I have become a fan of the dual disc clutch setup. Especially for a dual purpose machine. I drive what I build. Haven't had the money to do otherwise. You know you can transplant SBCs and LS motors into the Z cars pretty easily. Properly setup it is a very Cobraesq ride from accounts I have read. Having once been lucky enough to have had a chance to drive a Cobra SC Roadster (a real one with the owner riding along), I can tell you that would be a hoot.
