d240zx2 Posted March 30, 2012 Share #1 Posted March 30, 2012 I know it isn't customary for a person to re-wed so soon after losing a loved one, but I found and bought yesterday a pristine '71 (10/70). Pics will be put up soon. These next 10 days are very busy for me, that's why the delay.Some details: Completely disassembled down to the last nut and bolt and media blasted. Any rust issues resolved. Undercarriage powder coated. Complete repaint. New engine rebuilt (not matching numbers) w/zero miles (original engine tossed #6 rod through the block after an accidental overrev). Stock suspension. 4-speed. White/turquoise. The underside is almost as clean as the topside. Besides, the wife likes it. What more could a boy desire??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d240zx2 Posted March 31, 2012 Author Share #12 Posted March 31, 2012 (edited) Check awesomez.org and look at for sale section. It's the second listing. Not glamour shots, but gives a decent pictorial. Edited March 31, 2012 by d240zx2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
