  1. as far as i know you drill out the spot welds and once theyre all gone, it should just come off.
  2. i wish my 240z was that solid...looks like youre making good progress too. i think ill go with carbon ZG's now. thanks.
  3. since youre in minnesota, i say 240sx. i would never want an S30 for a DD anywhere but CA or AZ. i would expect the 240sx to be more reliable too. also, not all bmws are expensive. an E30 318 can be had for <$2500, and even higher mileage E36 M3s can be had for <$10000
  4. 240z's made up to 12/71 should have the hatch with vertical defroster lines. my '72 does. if it is indeed a '70 hatch, it should have the hatch vents, which it doesnt seem to have, so id guess its a '71 hatch. source of info: http://zhome.com/History/DesignChanges.htm
  5. why not a 1975 280z? it should still be smog exempt, no?
  6. i thought this one was pretty good
  7. i could be way off, but the first person that comes to mind for me is olderthanme. i dont know where he posted it though. sorry i cant be of more help.
  8. it looks good except the wheels. i dont like chrome wheels on most cars. very clean car though.
  9. i think its an improvement. ive never liked the vents between the door glass and side rear windows.
  10. just my two z's and school. i like relaxing.
  11. a guy around here with a 30's buick or something had tires like that, and i think he said the front end just goes up when you step on it. of course, he puts a hemi into everything he owns which may have something to do with it...
  12. it actually looks pretty solid from what i can see...i guess the rust is hiding.
  13. sure did. and i just bought a 240z that only needed floor pans and subframes...NOT! do yourself a favor and get one from CA or AZ thats rust free or close to it.
  14. there is a piece seperate from the dash that the steering column and pedals bolt to. you cant really see it in the pics.
  15. i use photobucket.com for hosting images. since your frame rail was twisted, was your front end bent as well? if so, did you just bend it back? my 240z has a bent frame rail, so im trying to see what other people did to fix it.
  16. ive heard that too. i *think* i heard theres about an inch difference.
  17. when we took the engine out of my 280z, we left the transmission on and had no problems taking it out.
  18. i cant answer your question, but i would also like to have some sort of bolt guide. i no longer remember what went where.
  19. doglegs, drivers side rocket, sheet metal for the floors, rear lower quarters, and a bunch of square tubing for a rotisserie. the z should be pleased.
  20. mine did... patch panels from tabco, some sheet metal for new floors and various other things, and some metal to build a rotisserie...and a fire extinguisher so my grandmas barn doesnt burn down in case of a fire.
  21. i've spent $800 on my 240z, which was just how much i paid for it, and $2500 on my 280z, again, just how much i paid for it. i can see each of them costing more than $20,000 easily to get them how i want them, though.
  22. i think this is by far my favorite stock 240z color picture taken from here: http://zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/index.html
