J Taylor Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Hmmmm. That's only about an hour away from me and I have a truck and trailer. Damnit. Last thing I need is another car but this one is going to be hard to pass up. LOL. JT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b__sosick Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 DOO IT common, it's rhd and a perfect perfect project. it's almost a sin not to get it. ;]] if anything buy it and keep it around for someone else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Yea, imagine the amount of mud and salt water damage! It is truly a tragedy, but the fiberglass work would be worth it for pulling molds, if they are done correctly... I'm VERY tempted...

Vintage-TechZ Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 J Taylor, That car would cover the parts for many rare composite parts I plan to produce. If you don't HAVE to have it,I'd certainly put the poor Z to future family usefulness .It would contain (besides Bay mud) several RHD mold parts and the body kit too.I could always arrange some monies for you if it needed to be picked up immediatly.I'm in lower Missouri.Let me know so a bunch of us don't drive the price to the moon in the final hours.

v8dats Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 damn the zx has a stroker too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Taylor Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I am headed out the door to go look at the 3 cars he has. I am planning on biddind on at least one of the rhd's, depending on the condition when I get there.....can't tell too much from the bad pics. I will post after I look at them. Vinny, if I end up getting the 240z I would more than likely be willing to work something out for you to able to use some parts to make molds with or whatever. I'll let you know when I get back how it looks. Oh yeah, he is actually only about 30 mins from me....lol. Not sure how these could be this close and me not have heard about them at some point.

JMortensen Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 That doesn't look like the same flares that were discussed in the other thread to me. Those look like those weird curved front/box flare in back flares. I think they were by Kaminari, and they had the squarish wheel openings.

J Taylor Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 The cars are fair game. They need a little more than I want to deal with I think. Not too big on the "wide body" style on the 240z either. I was contemplating selling my 280z and putting the money into the 240 but I think I will just keep it. Vinnie, If you want to call me to ask any specific questions, PM or email me and I'll give you my number. I could possibly answer some questions you may have. I took a bunch of pics of all 3 cars. I will try to get some posted later tonight or tomorrow sometime. The orange one is pretty decent except for being really dirty. The owner is super nice and a z nut as well. It's a shame these cars were messed up in the hurricane. The damage to the area is unreal. I've seen it on TV and all but it's totally different in person. You can see through almost every house in the area. The bottom walls area pretty much non-existant. Pretty crazy. JT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage-TechZ Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Well I had to fly out to Ohio last minute for the week and arrived home to see these cars all went to buyers(of course). Anyone on HBZ that we know get them ?? I didn't recognize any of the Ebay handles used. I miss these deals constantly due to work........( steams a sigh) !!

RB26powered74zcar Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hey J. Taylor, glad you went to look at them as your just as close as I am right now due to Rita hitting my home town and running me down here to the fine Mobile area... I just caught this thread because I'm at the mercy of my aunt's computer, but I surely would have took a look at the G-nose at least. I wish I wasn't sick right now or I would have loved to drop by your house since being down here to check out your RB Z. Maybe next time huh?? Hope everybodys doing well. I'm finally heading back to Lake Charles in the a.m. (Sun.) Can't say its been fun though.... but at least I have something to return to... Talk to ya'll later... joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
