Benzx Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I bought this 75 280z on febuary 27th. This is my second z (first being a rusted out 280zx). I love these cars alot and this one will be a keeper considering how little rust it has and my location. Anyways here are some pics and here is one with both the datsuns passenger side driver's side and the rest of my pics with some interior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Holy Crap those pictures are huge. Anyway it looks like a nice Z. didn't see much rust on the rocker panels or underside and what rust it did have is easily fixable. Like the blacked out rims too. Nice find, just hope it isn't some cheapo paint ob that has rust trapped underneath it. Although it looks decent from the pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benzx Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) ah geez. i thought with the new look of hybrid all the pics were resizing them selves. like on every other thread. my bad this was not a good post edit* they do size down after it is done loading, but with that many pics and how big they are it takes waaaayy to long, i will have to get on that next post Edited April 10, 2010 by Benzx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pharaohabq Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Very nice. That's a pretty good looking cal considering where it is. and the amt of salt that's around. Those few rust spots you should take care of asap, because guarantee soon as it warms up a little more they're going to turn into a nightmare. sand the paint back a few inches because rust tends to travel under paint. you can get some decent primer and come mostly color matched paint at the autoparts store, or online. to cover the areas you sand till you decide to get it repainted. up North you know how importants a good underbody is so get the wire wheel out and jack up the car and get to work. Then recoat it wwith something decent. Rhino-liner is actually really good, but I dunno if you have that up there. Your interior is making me jealous. I love the spice interior, but I can't find enough to convert mine. Funny, when those images were loading, I was thinking, huh, where's the car? under all that snow???

Phar that is the idea. have'nt found anything close to the colour locally but i have'nt looked very hard. first thing is a safety then i will be sanding. and the underbody i am thinking of using this rocker gaurd. it looked alright and most people around here vouche for it. luckily i wont have to weld anything by the looks of it.. u want my interior? if i could get it all in black i would probably re-paint the car a different colour. otherwise it will be the same colour.
