Well, we found the passenger floor pan was repaired and the previous owner didn't replace the frame rail. The part of the frame rail that connects to the main frame is still there but useless. Is it an urgent matter to address Before we drive it?

Has anyone seen a z with the non-hood, non-fender part ( surface covered by the plastic cover) of the headlight bucket painted a different colour. Just thinking and wondering about ways of making an all white ZG theme a bit more interesting. I want to take blue down this road to a white zg but add something more.... maybe light grey like the gnose?

I recently had my car painted, about 2 weeks ago, and not really all that good of a job. The main issue is that several hail damage dents in the hood (maybe about 20) were not fixed prior to painting. My question is can I use dry ice and/or a hair dryer on the new paint without damaging the paint job. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Hey mates Long story short, I've noticed in the past that my passenger side carpet was getting wet everytime it rainned here in Tucson - which isn't that often. I pulled the carpet out and found the floorboard in ok shape - lots of surface rust - but covered in water. This past morning I was driving over to friends house in rain and noticed that evertime I would go over a puddle water would enter the cabin through the large rubber peice in the floor. Does anyone know where one could get these? Are they hard to put in/take out? Thanks mates Jan

Although I thought this day was coming a few times my 76 280Z 2+2 will finally get the paint job it is needing. I am going with the 110 red (based on all of the post I beleive that this is the color that looks both red and orange depending on lighting). I have a side question or actually looking for parts. I need a gas filler tube and the fuel pump mount with the rubber piece (not sure what this is actually called). Does anyone out there have these parts laying around they want to part with for a decent price. Thanks in advance.

Posted at end of another thread; however, I need some quick help. I am just completing a new paint job on my z, 110 red, and I am considering some sort of side stripes. I have run accross the MSA side stripes but I am not sure if the 76 280Z actually came stock with any stripe options. I notice that the photo MSA has showing the 280 stripe is for a 240 which I think was common on those models. Also, are the stripes easy to install. Since I have a 2+2 model I will need to purchase two sets since they do not make one long enogh for the 2+2. Any other options out there? Thanks.
