Sparks280zt Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 that car is so clean. It may have some great bodywork but there is no rust on the body! Hes prob gonna need a door and a hood, but they are real cheap as a yard i know of. Anyways I was so jealous of Jamel when i saw that thing!

Boobala Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Nice! I wish mine was that and rust-free (all I see is light surface rust). A little clean-up, a new door and some paint and that thing is going to be awesome. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 not just that...L28 with a header, very little rust, lots of sweet magazines, maybe a little rust where the battery goes(mine is a gaping hole), and the body is straight! just time to strip it down to see the real condition on that thing.

wheelman Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Nice find man, I wish mine had been that clean when I picked it up. I had to replace the battery tray, part of the firewall and passenger footwell due to rust. Enjoy the project and welcome to the board. What are the plans for it?

jdizzy204 Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 thanks guys. im very pleased with the car. although there is not much rust seen... i still have yet to tear it down and see how much rust there REALLY is. so far, the batt tray needs to go(was just covered with sheet metal), and the floorpans(mainly the driver side). we shall see how much rust there really is soon. . anyways i would like to do a lot of things like repaint, half cage, full interior,1jzgte, zg flares, fender mirrors, watanabe wheels etc etc. but we shall see what my wallet says:wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ZFury Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Great find! I am thinking about selling my 300ZX for a 240Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK-Z Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Looks so freakin clean compared to my 280z. Just surface rust (alot though, but easy to clean). Mine looks like its been eatin through by the rust monster. Soon to be remedied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
