Flashback-some old pictures of my car when we brought her home ect.

[76Datsun280z]

For fun today, I pulled some old pictures out of my 280z that I thought you guys might enjoy seeing. Some are of the first day we brought it home, some are of the work in progress and there's a few random ones in there too. The quality of these photo's are really bad because they are a picture of a picture. Enjoy--

The Ebay auction for it, one it for $500 and was ten hours away

Loading it onto the U-Haul dauly

Listening to her fire up for the very first time, ran horribly though and hardly had enough power to get up onto the trailer, had to get a small run at it

Finally got her home after ten hours of driving later, you can see the front end damage that it had

The next day, the work begins by cleaning her all out, notice the orginal silver paint

Priming the Western Wheels, getting them ready for paint

All the wheels lined up primed waiting for paint

Waiting for a hood

Blowing off the dust from a day of sanding

Someone needs a scanner, and a tan!!

Just kidding...Thanks for sharing the photos, even though they are blurry, you can still tell that work has been done, especially when you look at her on the tow dolly-that punched in nose..., looks great now-always a work in progress.

I like those rims, by the way.
