Z28 the car??? What year??? We need pics!!!

A good friend of mine used to have a real nice Blue 69 Z28. Unfortunately, he is long gone, but I still know where the car is (another person I know has it), and I send his son a Christmas card every year.

Built in comp release or emissions think it works as both my old mcculloch 650 and eager beaver were like that and same with one of my pocket bike engines
Stihl bg85 handheld blower. The smaller bg55 has same motor but the trough in the roof is only a 3rd as high in the exhaust

I know with some older 70s and 80's Enduro bikes had similar setups for emissions reasons so that's why I guessed to 2 answers I guesed

I want to thank Dave for getting those decals for me, he is really a great guy.

I guess since he found two sets that it is a sign that I have to build up another 254SE........

Blower came in today.. got worse at running and was told it wouldn't rev past 1/2 throttle and only would run on some choke flap applied (You can on this model ). Fault...carb I hear you say...impulse perhaps !!
Nope...the 2 cylinder head bolts were loose ( see silver rubbing marks in pic) and the cylinder was able to lift up and down a tinny bit Photo0703.jpg Photo0704.jpg on pulling it over , which i found by taking out the plug . Whada you know...Imperial allen key long reach needed (all metric here) so ordered a set. Got the bolts tight enough to fire it up to know it should be fine. Only 2 bolts on a head would seem a bit prone loosening me thinks . o_O
