I've got a 76 280z. But I' across the continent.

Why no-likey the S30's? I've got exactly what you want. Rust free 76 280z, in SLO, CA

I got a rust free 76 280z, but I am located in California. It is close to complete, minus rear end, gas tank, tranny, and intake.

Cal Poly started today. Taking a small but busy load. Fluid Mechanics II (w/ lab), Design II (w/ lab), and Heat Transfer. Also working 2 jobs about 25 hours a week.

Got a 76 280z. Missing gas tank, tranny, rear end, but has N42 engine/head and a complete car otherwise with a beautiful, no-rust anywhere body. Bummer is it's in Cali. Oh ya, right at your price of $1,000.

I'm about a year behind Alec for ME, but I'm going to stay another year or so to get my masters.

If plans go well, it should be removed for an intercooler within a year. Then that piping will get a less texture.

Ya, the J-Pipe looks great and the wrinkle will hold tons of grease and grime. But it's going on a brand newly rebuilt engine that doesn't get driven a lot. And I'm kind of a clean freak when it comes to my cars. As for the oven being large enough, not yet but we will be making it into a pregnant oven to get larger parts.

Hey guys, Alec and I have been practicing getting different types of Powder Coating with great results. Here's a pic we just did tonight of my J-Pipe. Its a Heavy Texture Matte Black and it looks like it was wrapped in velvet. Before After Here's some of other parts we've done. Eastwood's High Gloss Black scratches very easily, we got a better semi gloss that looks better. (Pics later) Alec's door handle, there will be pics soon from our body/paint job the past month.

Are you looking to get it done and right back on a car thats running? Or is this something being done a while before the car gets on the road? From my searching, there's mixed reviews on whether or not to use a sealant because they have come off before. I know many people use muriatic acid to clean it and put it back onto a running car and thats that.

Bad economy forces people to find money easily.

If you mix Rustoleum and Acetone about 1:1, even more Acetone will help with less orange peel. Then add Japan Dry, you can get about 2 coats of paint in a day.

I saw a Chevy Avalanche once with a nice dark green, not sure which year or anything though.

Awesome pictures! I still have yet to see a GT-R

Nice car. What's with the Fish thing under the pictures?

Black Widow death toll = 5 Car's new name = Black Widow

Like this! Crappy phone pic. Took almost half a can of some spider killer until it stopped moving for me to crush it. Then continued spraying as much of the car I could and another, smaller, one fell off the back! Another trip to the store tomorrow to spray the car again, then hose it all off!

I just went to take off the bumpers on the 280z and bent over turned my head into the wheel well and stared face to face with a big black spider with a red spot on its back! Went to get spray and now it's gone! Paranoia!

The upgrade to the upgraded car that got me into Z's.

Lots of good info. so far. I can't wait to learn more, almost time for mine to be done.

Looks good! Whats your wheel sizing and suspension setup?

Wow, some of these ideas are great

Shift00, great progress. Did you get the engine pulleys and stuff all powdercoated?

HAHA, reminds me of this old video http://ru.youtube.com/watch?v=ddhrD3a2I1M

Looks nice! I am getting a 76 280z manual for $650 shipped to my doorstep to use the gas tank and rear end for my 74 260z l28et swap.
