thanks doesnt seem to be that much different in cost after 10 yrs:classic:

hello my name is patrick i started with my first z in 1993 i bought a 1974 260z 1st half yr fell in love with the z and have been stuck on them since. i bought a second one shortly after it was a 78 280z i had it for a few yrs then had a accident and it went to the z grave yard. i continued driving my 260 until 2002 when it was killed in a accident . so i kept it as a parts car and bought a 72 240z without motor to transfer parts from 260 into. 2 yrs ago i bought a 77 280z 2x2 complete car not running going to get it going sometime in near future i have a few pics. the blue z with me leaning on it is my 74 260z that's now a parts car the silver z is my 72 240z and the brown z is my 77 280z 2x2

i havn't had time to shop around or search. i have a 77-280z 2x2 the engine cranks but wont start there's a rod knock. the last time i had a L-24 rebuilt was over 10 years ago and it cost me 1600.00 i have a choice of rebuilding or buying a already rebuilt one which would be the best rout to take. i havn't had a L-28 professionally rebuilt before so i dont know the going price these days. thanks patrick
