O.K! I just replaced both locks - what a royal pain!!!
I guess, after, 16 years, had to do it sooner or later.
Thanks, Michael. Assembly manual sheets you sent me helped a lot. Along needle nose and a long screw driver helped.

Glad to hear all went well and that you are good to go now. I know who to ask when I get issues with locks now.

Hey, Craig,
Hope all is well. It just takes a lot of patience and good digital dexterity.

Glad to hear you got everything worked out. Did the painter remove the locks? Do you think that had something to do with the problem you had?

No. Locks were old and in retrospect, I should have asked him to replace with a new set.
I did confirm that they removed the handle before painting as I have asked. That alone must have added 2-3 hrs - real honest guys. Some painter wouldn't have gone to all that trouble.

Good to hear...

So you need to schedule some work so I can give you a hand and return a favor and let me see your younger version of my blk/blk Z!

I am 95% finished. Only resto remaining is sway bar bushing, tranny and rear end oil change, coolant flush and wheel refinish.
Perhaps we can hook up any the next local show.

Did you get your car aligned?

Thanks, Michel. You know it's a never ending story.
I am going to take a road trip to Cleveland - business and get together with old friends. Really looking forward to it.

Hi Yun,

Thanks, all is well and I hope the same for you. Just plugging along with the rebuild and missed you at the 20th Anniversary.
