  1. Thanks for the compliment. The car was totally stripped before painting, I didn't want any of the original to show. Suspension is still "high" because I use the car for off-roadin' on the weekends. In Floridaw, we've combined muddin' with driftin' (mriftin'). It'll catch on soon!!!
  2. It's painted over...couldn't take the chrome. The trim was etched then painted with SEM (39143) body trim matte black paint. semproducts.com
  3. Thanks I put that in just to see if anyone was paying attention....AND to drive up sales for Sportmax 009.
  4. Thanks for looking Chris. The wheels are 4 lug SportMax 009 (9 1/2" back - 8" on the front ) I got the wheel/tire "package" out of Miami (WheelMax, I think) These people were fantastic to work with!! Called on Monday, by Thurs. they were in my garage. Mounted/Balanced/Nitro filled/Lugs the works...Hope this helps.
  5. Help...the heater controls that open the side and center vents in the dash won't open. Top and Floor are ok. Any suggestions!!??
  6. I'm new to the 280z forums so be gentle! Anyway 1979 280zx (30k) original miles. Couldn't leave it stock, so here are the before and after. Many thanks to "80LT1" , I "stole his Wheel/tire configuration. I also got a lot of good ideas from several others, keep up the great forum!!
  7. I've added the "before" picture. The car was low mileage, but suffered the usual rust spots for a Z. I did the body/paint myself. The motor is stock.....I'd like some ideas on improving the performance. Can a turbo be added to the "standard" block setup?
  8. The color is "salsa red pearl" , thanks for asking!
  9. OK you've all heard the stories: Barn find etc. Well here's mine: This 1979 Z was purchased new (one owner) 30,000 ORIGINAL MILES. She (my aunt) became too old to get into it (82 years) and gave it to me. My first attempt @ a 280zx....what do ya think!!??
