I've been passing by a Z car on a mom & pop car lot near my house for several weeks now. I looked at it through the fence on a Sunday and finally pulled in this afternoon to get a closer look. It's a 1980 280ZX with what looks to be original features. The paint has been touched up here and there. There's a rust spot on the passenger side front quarter panel. Seals on the windows look good. No cracks in the glass. I could not detect an rust on the frame rails but that will require closer inspection. The engine is running well and the seller has driven the car fairly often. The interior is a little rough with some tears in the seats, cracks in the dash and needs a real …

I just wanted to send out a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who contributes to this site as well as those who keep it running. Thanks to all of you and the info you so willingly share with the rest of us Z-newbies , I was able to learn enough to find a great Z to start with and begin my quest to build the Z of my dreams. I have just completed the first of many planned projects(280ZX dizzy swap) and started on the second(suspension refresh). So far I have removed the front and rear suspension components and begun the process of taking everything down to bare metal to prep for patinting. I am curently the proud owner of a 1973 Datsun 240Z hovercraft. As a part of the refresh I…

I just returned from Home Depot , and they have a couple of options . Behr brand paint , has a '' 1-PART EPOXY " acrilic paint for garage floors. They also have two part Epoxy paint that is made by another company , they both have flakes to spread and or stuff to make it less slippery when wet. Has any one used either of these and if so how do they hold up ? I am wondering how tuff the coating is if I choose to use my floor jack with the steel wheels , or the dollies . I have used concrete porch paint in the past on a different house and durability and slickness when wet, is a deffinate concern. With all the rain here in Oregon , I don't want my wife to slip and f…

Here's my first entry into the contest with this wonderful product from MSA. See if you can beat this and other entries. Every Z should have a CHROME fan kit, don't you? If you want your Z to have that '57 Chevy aura, get this product.

Well friday morning my grandfather, my father, my brother and I started off after this car. Lets say this probably ranked about 3 on the dumbest ideas we ever had . Chris gave some great directions and we were able to find his place easily, Only made one wrong turn the whole trip. Dad and i test drove the car.(dad still drives like your grandmother) We were very pleased with the engine. It runs very strong but the brakes were scary . When we got back to Chrisses house and i was praparing to give the man his money. He refused it. He gave me the car for free! Chris took me for a ride in his 73 i think it is? Very fast and pretty car. That had to be the most fun ive ever…

I saw before couple of days a 1983 280ZX in original condition te car wasn't used for 10 years! it smelled like a new car from inside! nice gulf-spec car fully optioned with a rear wing still feel like rubber! I was really sad from not having that one but the worse thing is that they asked 13333$ :stupid: I wish that I could have that amount! does it worth it anyhow? the car really seem like new

Hi, All. My brother is interested in getting a late 60's Alfa Junior GT or a GTV. I was wondering if any of you guys/gals have one, or have any experience with them. Do you know if there are any helpfull Alfa forums that he can visit to gather information before he makes his decision. I have to admit it's one looker of a car but don't know anything about them. I know rust was a major issue with them, and parts seem to be alot more widely available for them then our cars Thanks Ahmed
