  • Exhausted!!

    We are restoring a Datsun 240z(yes this is a festy site but)and we have painted the engine compartment and today we primed the hood with epoxy primer. I worked on my festy a little then my dad needed my help. It took a little over 6 hours. We paint in our garage, we hang up some plastic on one side of the garage and cover our tools. I'm pretty tired. Will post pics later.

            I personally prefer the 280z but the 240z is a nice car... especially a nicely restored or modded one

              Yeah I like the 280z too. I like the zx as a 80's car.

                    Way cool car. How about a before and after photo. As with most cars from Japan, in those days, rust got the better of most of em'.

                      I will post some in a little. The floor pans were completely rusted out. The firewall was rusted and the engine compartment. The body had a few spots.

                        lots of rust free z's down here! Love those cars. The Japanese Ferrari, but better than the Italian one in many many ways.
                        Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

                            I used to have a 90' 300zx, it was a fun car but got expensive to maintain

                            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
