I live in Woodland/sacramento and I am 90% sure I want to paint my z (painted houses for years)My dad left me his Z that he painted (single stage paint) however the body work was done in a hurry and now I want to start into it? I have bought books and read them through I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in being a protege/mediator/tech support befor I jump into this task? If you live in the area and have painted your z I would be interested in your knowledge and seeing what your finished product looks like.

thanks

Andy

Yep, me

30 minutes out jus North of you.

Oh I see,

Well for paint I know a couple of shops out this way.

The tow yard where I get my Z parts from has an entire auto facility and

paint/body shop as well.

Pretty sure theres others in Sac but

I'll check these out for you here and see if they're any good.

did you do your own paint?

Nah, I wish but I think I might give it a try this spring.

The body work was already done my car when I bought her, (earlier restoration)

but rock chips got to her as well as a crack on the hood.

I know a couple guys with shop space that might let me use they're

shop space and utensils, don't know what they'll charge either way if

I do it myself or not.

My 1st Buddy in Stocking 'll just charge me for the PPG Paint but

I have'nt seen him in a few months.

The 2nd guy I know does the paint and body work over at

Nakatsu's Garage here in Yuba City, CA.

He's my recommendation at least.

Nakatsu's Garage

1655 Poole Blvd

Yuba City CA 95993-2614

530-751-7860

If you call let him know Isaiah the guy with the Red '77 280Z sent you.

He's a nice guy but remember to check out some of his other work first and

make sure it's up to your standards as always.

He also builds race engines by the way

Oh yeah, the Sanchez towyard shop with a bigger facility and longer history I hear

does good work also.

thanks for the info!!!!
