I'm going to skip a few steps here, but I thought that I would share a few pictures with my fellow z-car enthusiasts. 

 

About three years ago I bought my '76 280z which I paid too much for.  The car turned into a basket case and went on a rotisserie 2 years ago for pretty extensive rust repairs (including floors and subframe on both sides).  Finally, it is off the rotisserie and sitting on 4 wheels again.  There is still a long way to go, but there is no denying that a milestone has been reached.  Enjoy the photos.

    Wow! Lots of hard work there. Thats a unique battery tray. Nice work. Keep it up. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

     

    Are you keeping the stock engine and EFI?

    Looks great. I am 5 years in and just a little behind you. You are doing great work. Looks good. I hope to be wheels down in the spring. I am even in the same color family...

    The battery tray is from Summit Racing.  The original was rusted out and had to be removed to repair the firewall and inner fender. 

     

    The motor will be the original L28 but it will be beefed up a little.  Not sure about induction yet.  I waffle between fuel injection and triples.
