Not many may remember Fantasy Island :roll: but I need some help with zee bar, not zee plane. :lol:

Seriously though, my D100 still has its original 25 year old clutch, and so I am gathering parts to do a clutch change all in one day. My question relates mainly to the z bar; what kind of bushing(s) do(es) it take, where can I get them, and should I add a grease zerk to the shaft so I can lube it in the future?

Well, Brewer's Performance must be run by the DMV, becuase it has been a couple weeks and still haven't gotten my parts. :shrug: Got a confirmation email right away, then nothing. Their phone is always busy too. Any other sources for these parts?

Sure we do! That was the show that had those slant-6 F-body wagons -- loose and clackin' valves and all -- with the windshield and pillars cut to make a sort of surrey-top big golf cart thing to carry the people from de plane to the EYE-lannd.

Yup. Herve even had his own mini-sized version.

Ricardo Montalban was a stud. I can only hope that when I reach the age he was when he made "Wrath of Khan" that my pectorals are that big. Plus, who else could ever pull off peddling "Fine Corrrrrinthian Lather."

Nope, but I don't get to work out as much as I used to. Plus, he was a short guy, and it is much easier for them to bulk up.
