camerashy Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hey all, I'm not going to post the project here (too little time to repost the whole thread right now, but I may do in the future) but if you want an entertaining thread to follow then this is my project over on Retro Rides http://www.retrorides.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=readersrides&action=display&thread=86608 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneStarS30Z Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 You're like a superhero swooping in to save that Z's life. Hats off to you for not scrapping it and keeping one more Z in this world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
503Alex Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Awesome build, love it! Where did you get your Lexan windows from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModernS30 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Looks like a fantastic start. That rust is nothing! The roof was obviously messed up back in the day. I can't tell if they put a different one on of if they hadn't realized how the roof is leaded in from the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clutchdust Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 You are a braver soul than I. Far, far braver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldlion Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Epic build thread camera! I bookmarked your linked thread so I can follow both places. If you don't mind me asking where did you order your bearing and drum brake rebuild kit from? I feel shameful for even posting my simple build thread now. My 280 has the body of a columbian super model compared to what your 240 is starting with. I have a feeling you are going to have this whole forum following your build.

My 280 has the body of a columbian super model compared to what your 240 is starting with. I have a feeling you are going to have this whole forum following your build. The drum rebuild kit was an ebay job, they pop up fairly regularly, the bearing parts also. However, you'll certainly find the bearings cheaper from rockauto.com linky here - http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/x,carcode,1209158,pgname,Brake%252FWheel%2BHub I have searched the interwebs far and wide, and trust me, rock auto works out the cheapest, by a long shot. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
