FastFloridian Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 (edited) Hello, new to forum. I’m in Bradenton, Florida and just bought a 1972 240Z to rebuild. I’ve got a twin turbo 370Z, but I’ve always wanted to restore the original. I’m looking to build it for the track, but still keep it street legal so I can dive it around town if I wanted to. I’ve got big plans, as the car needs a lot of work but is a good start. Car already has a ford 302 and it runs, but brakes are shot and everything needs a refresh. I’m going with the Apex track attack suspension front and back, a wide body IMSA kit and just replace update a lot of the car. Looking forward to this project and learning about this car on this site. Edited November 11 by FastFloridian Spelling error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhm Posted November 11 Share Posted November 11 Welcome to the forum....glad to have you!! Wow, Apex Track Attack package -- you're obviously not afraid to drop some $ into this project. Looking forward to seeing how you like the results once it's finished. For the widebody kit, are you looking at ZTrix? John Washington, long-time member here, builds top-quality pieces and complete kits. This is his IMSA widebody kit: https://www.ztrix.com/fender-kits/imsa Cheers!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah wasn’t planning to spend that much on suspension, but their kit looks really nice and I talked myself into it. Yes, I ordered the ZTrix kit. I’ve actually been talking with John, he’s customizing the front bumper a little for me too. I saw a car with his kit at ZCON earlier this year, and right away knew that’s what I wanted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted Saturday at 07:06 PM Share Posted Saturday at 07:06 PM Sounds like a good time, and with all of the suspension figured out might not be that much of a time suck getting it up and running. Some of us took a decade or more to get our shit together. For a Ford powered car, look up username 74_5.0L_Z Dan is a good guy, runs a 347 stroker IIRC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
