Hey guys, I recently bought a 240z and it ended up having more rust than I originally thought, thus begins my new winter project. Pulling her home with my 1987 2WD Toyota Pickup. That was a long haul between northeast of Sacramento and Southern California. The truck performed well though! The car sat for a while and the engine internals have rusted. The overview plan is to pull the engine, fix the front half of the car's rust problems, swap the SUs from the L24 to my rebuilt L28, install the engine, and drive it while fixing other

In planning to do a restoration of my 240z, I knew that I would need a rotisserie to repair the floor panels properly. Most automotive rotisseries run about $2000 not including shipping. A used one would run about half that amount. For me, the problem was most rotisseries are large and take up a lot of space.

I bought a 240z about 3 years ago and finally have some money and a place to work on it. I want to get started here in the next month but I am starting fresh as far as tools go :-/ I found a deal online to get this welder http://www.eastwood.com/mig-welder-110vac-135a-output.html for $199 most reviews I read people paid 300-400 for it and I see great feedback on it. From your guys experience would this be sufficient? My Z is pretty rusty and will need new floors/ more than likely frame rails. (Its set to be shipped to me later this month or Id take a closer look) If I recall nothing on th
