ArnZ Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I thought I would see what everyone thought about this car, I am on the fence if I like it or not. I plan on seeing it in person in the next couple of days. Does not run, no clarification on rust status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 To each his own, but I'm not really liking it too much. I think it ruins the lines, and seems kind of like a pickup truck. The front flows so well and then it just looks cut off on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_furious Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Bleagh. Looks like a hack job. Would make an easy convertible conversion, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vintage Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Bleagh. Looks like a hack job. Would make an easy convertible conversion, though. My thoughts exactly. Pick it up, cut a little bit here and there, drop a convertible top on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take my Zs with the factory hard top, thanks. The Z was not meant to be a roadster, targa, convertible, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiZZZin 78 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 just another z ruined...so sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhptom Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Cut the rest of the top off along with the windshield and you have yourself a lightened track car. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Poly Zmanaustin Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Don't like the flow or lines. I agree with the rest of the statements above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tfreer85 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 I just keep seeing flashbacks of Porsche's 70's abortion: GAAHH!! I love 914's sorry for the threadjack. I'd buy the z if the price was right and modify it like everyone else is saying for a cool convertible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pmac Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I thought I would see what everyone thought about this car, I am on the fence if I like it or not. I plan on seeing it in person in the next couple of days. Does not run, no clarification on rust status. Check carefully on what strengthening has been done....And the quality of it. Assuming the perpetrator of the crime actually bothered with any reinforcing. i once looked at a late 260Z here in England that had a pair of targa roofs of Italian origin put in it. The only strengthening was one bit of ally plate pop riveted between the two panels on the roof. It gave a whole new meaning to the phrase" Unsafe at Speed". I walked away from that one .... fast:icon45: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavyZ Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Would make an easy convertible conversion, though. This is exactly what came to mind. But, as was stated earlier, the reinforcing should have been done. I hope it was. You could still do the bracing if it doesn't have it. I'm not sure who is still making the old Origin convertible stuff now. Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
