What makes a Z a Z? What modifacations go too far to be called a Z?

Modifying an L motor is the way to go, a turbo is a welcome addition, a V8 fusion is only welcome in the cup holder. The cup holder is also a welcome addition.

What! Not a Six pack like in the Z? AS to a cup holder-there is a great and adjustable(by removing the durable metal liner with the chrome finger pull) one in the car-some moe-ron in Nissan literature translation though it was an ashtray and just like the Goertz myth, here we are!

I use a poll to start conversations not to get check box answers-if all of the questions addressed every answer I though would come out, where would the conversation get its kick start from?

Well, you did kick start conversation, just never can tell where those conversations will go.

I suppose you mean a straight-6 of V8?

I think most would agree that the sunroof addition is simply an abomination, but what about the hatch window treatment? At first, I thought someone had simply rigged up a venetian blind but the second photo seems to show a specially made unit.

Interesting.... not everyone feels the need to cover their v8 engine with bright plastic covers, though in this particular case, they did feel the need to leave the Thunderbird emblems on the tail light trim.

However, the person who re-imagined this car did place a re-manufacturing plate in place of the original door jamb data plate.
