Recommended Posts

Just thought id post some pictures of my 74 260z project and get some feedback. We just finished building my roticery and the car is going to be blasted next week. Im putting a tpi 350 and a 6 speed in it. Im only sixteen and this is my first ever car build so let me know what you think!Constructive criticsm and ideas would be much appreciated! I may only be 16 but keep in mind im paying for this whole build!haha

 

Any good ideas on rearends?

Suspension?

Roll cage and stiffening?

Rear disk conversion?

 

Thanks

I havent posted anything for a few weeks. But a lot happened in the last couple days.

 

1) I purchased my brand new transmission. (t5) for now... cant afford a t56 yet

2) I got my car back from the sandblaster (Tons of rust and 500 Dollars later)

3) I pulled my motor out of my donor car (tpi 350)

4) I scored an entire floor piece rust free for 60 bucks! (my pans were wasted and it beats a few hundred for new.)

How much did it cost to build your rotisserie?

 

We were able to build it for about 175 bucks 50$ per jack and some steel. But we also had a bunch of scrap steel lying around. You could probally build one for a few hundred dollars and have a nice functional roticery.
