Posted December 23, 200915 yr comment_304020 Well, bought my Z today. Currently sitting at my uncles house, waiting for me to come back tomorrow. Here's a few shots of it. Not the best, but ill take more tomorrow. Can't wait to bring this gal home and show her her new home. By the way, she's a 1976 280Z 2+2.

December 23, 200915 yr Author comment_304048 Thank you all very much. Like I said, I can't wait to start playing. I'm hopeing I can move her (don't know why but the car strikes me as a female personality) down to my house so I can be able to work on her daily.Again, I'll take more pics here soon today and upload them when I do. I haven't gone through the entire vehicle, but I did find an entire brand new rear quarter window with trim on it.So, I'm off to go to my new project/toy/passion/hobby/never-ending-wallet-killer.

December 24, 200915 yr Author comment_304081 No, he didn't (to my knowledge) ever own a Z. I forgot to take pics today. Kinda got wrapped up in working on it to get it running again.

December 25, 200915 yr Author comment_304175 As promised here's a few more photos. I rinsed her off with the hose in an attempt to take off some of the dirt. Took some off, so she looks a bit better.

December 25, 200915 yr Author comment_304176 And just another of the gauges. With the Rims and rear louvers (spelling?), are they popular? Cause people have been trying to buy them off my uncle like crazy since I parked it at his place..

December 26, 200915 yr Author comment_304208 Yeah, just re-examined my photos there. I'll need to take better ones. Just realized there all blurry. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/34211-new-owner-of-a-z/#findComment-304208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
December 30, 200915 yr Author comment_304573 I haven't had time to fully examine them and make sure they work properly, but I think the middle 3 gauges do not work. Once work cools off a bit I'm going to go and test them. I did some searching, and found a few different sets that will fit if I needed to change them. I believe one set is Autometer, the other is Revolution. Both are nice, but does anybody make the over/under gauges? I like how there set up, and don't feel like adding pods to hold an extra gauge or two because there's not room for all of them in those spots..
