Howdy from Texas

[Stubby]

Have owned a 76 280z for a couple of years and spent a couple of years prior to owning it helping my father inlaw modify it. It would be considered by most to be a POS but it has been a fun toy.

We modified the log for a Dirrect mount Holley 350, got it jetted in and running great then adapted it for a Rochestor 2V. Again we got it jetted in and running great. Then we found a pair of SU carbs in the local junkyard and repeated the process.

We also took a five speed trany out of a truck and cross bread it with the Zcar's four speed and now we have a five speed. That was a learning experience.

The body is a little rough but it is a tough little car and fun to drive. Right now my son is driving it as his first car while we rebuild his 68 Mustang.

Welcome! It's always nice to see someone else from the Lone Star state join us here.

Welcome to the board. I love my Z very much, but if that's a 68' fastback, I'm not sure which I'd rather have. That car always got my attention.
