I wish mine looked that good. It will someday, but it's gonna take time and money. Nice car!

At least your car is painted.

the wheels remind me of a zed i almost bought from gainsville GA. a while back before i got the one i have now. the one in gainsville had a dash cap, does yours?

It probably is the same one.that is where I got it.There was a lot of problems with it and it took 2 months just to get it on the street. There are a few more issues I need to work on but like today I took it for about a 3 hour drive.Like I said, it was worth every bit of trouble.

At least your car is painted.

I take it your car is paintless right now, Bryan?

Anyway, yes mine has a decorative coating on all the body surfaces. But not all the parts are the same color, and in general I think that calling it "paint" in its current condition is probably being generous. It will need to be stripped and painted before I'll call it done. (My avatar picture is not a fair representation - not only is it small enough to hide flaws, I Photoshopped it as well. )

I looked at your progress and really have to comend anybody with the patience to restore a car from what you started with. My first Z was the same build date as yours but I bought in 73. It was the same color as yours which is my favorite. I would love to get one just like it to redo but I can't find one. good luck on your project and please keep us posted. Ronnie

Well, I don't find it to be so bad. Yes, there is some rust, but past that there is a lot more to work with here than with some previous restorations I've worked on. Working on my cars is recreation for me. It will take time and money, but I'd rather spend it on restoring a worthy car, it beats spending it on golf. (No offense intended to any golfers, I just don't understand.)
