My first project Z... wanting another badly!!!


Recommended Posts

This was my first attempt at "reconditioning" a 1977 280z.  When I got it, it was running though, so I didn't do alot to the engine other than  upgrading the previously rebuilt 6 cyl, 4 speed.  All the time and work that I spent on that car was time well spent.  I spent all my awake hours thinking of ways I could upgrade and update it.  To me it was cathartic.  I am very new to working on cars and used this as a learning experience.  This site has been worth its weight in gold!  

I changed everything in it from the brakes/suspension to the interior and paint.  I spent about 2 years with all my spare time going into it.

Sadly I sold it when I was in desperate need of money and am now acheing for another to while away the days.  I think this time I am ready to try an engine swap though, and think I'll be going with a 350 SBC.  (yup.... got the JTR book)
