Our 1978 California 280 Z Restoration
It's been a long time coming. It was off the road the last three years after a brief stint being used as a back and forth to work commuter. Prior to that year and a half of use it sat idle for 8 years!

Our 1978 California 280 Z Restoration
Marci learned to drive in this car back in 1978! it's seen good and bad years since her dad gave it to us at our 1985 wedding, but it was time to bring her back to her former glory! Enjoy.

Almost done with our '78 California 280Z restore; this diagram should help clear up some confusion. My wife learned to drive on this car 35 years ago!

Help an OO with Restoring a 78 280Z in S. FL
Sadly, I travel too much and cannot do this myself. My wife of 28 years learned to drive on this 78 1/2 280Z back in '78, making us the original owners. This car originated in Northern Ca and has been with us in S Fl since 1985. We have used it nonstop for many years, but it has been a third car that sees much less use the last 5-8 years. Lots of rust (DUH) but otherwise still great car! Can anyone recommend an honest, reliable, knowledgeable garage/restorer in my neck of the woods who won't want to finance several college educations on my back? I would love to bring it back to (almost) new condition, but I'm NOT looking to enter it in the Concourse D'Elegance!
