It is very exciting to put the car together. I am the second owner. I used the car as my daily drive from the 70’s to the 80’s. I stopped using the car when my wife told me she was pregnant in 1983. The car has been unused but was run once a year for the last 27 years. I have been taking it apart for 3 years. All the rust has been cut out and new metal has been welded in. All the rubber has been replaced hoses, seals, boots and mounts. The bottom of the car has been striped and painted. It is running for the first time in the rebuild. I have add a few new parts. New Bilstein shocks all around, stainless steel brake lines hard and soft, all new back and front brakes, master cylinder, power booster, Calipers, wheel cylinders, clutch, clutch master and slave, new hard and soft clutch lines, rebuilt Weber’s, Malory ignition, new heater core and control valve, new wheel bearings all around, new AC (134A), 2 speed electric fans, 60 amp alternator upgrade with internal regulator, headlight and fan relays directly connected to the alternator, Honda Heater blower upgrade, all new urethane bushings except rubber on the back torsion bar, most parts have been removed, striped and painted or clear coated. Most of the bolt used to reassemble the car are stainless steel. The motor was put together with racer brown cam, springs and valves by a friend when he was on Datsun race team in the 80's. Its going in for paint this winter.

I’m very excited…

From one 'East-Coaster' to another......................WOW!

Wish mine was as far along in the work to get it rust free.

Congrats and maybe we'll run into (not literally) each other one day.

Too nice...... Fuel handling is a nice touch.... New springs too ?

Not just a Z - ZDisease

Gorgeous!

Your excitement reminds me of how I felt when I first turned the key after replacing bearings/rings in the 240z I used to have. Mine barely ran when first started due to retarded timing.

Nice job.
