I was shopping for my first car on craigslist, I had know idea what I wanted... untill I saw the Z, first gen. I knew right then I had to have that car, but at the time I didnt have the money, I knew nothing about them eather, so I started learning, what knowledge I gained confirmed my choice of car, so when I finaly had the money I knew what to look for. the 1977 280z was a dream come true for me. It ran fine and only had/ has mild rust. Its an obssesion, it really is, its what is constantly, and I mean constantly on my mind. also, I had first learned to drive in my mothers 94 escort so this car felt like a rocket, now that Im used to it I will have to turbocharge it.
