Gettin tha hang of it.....

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. I know its not perfect , but it is mine and all I want to do is drive ! Back on the street after some wrenchin'

Thanks Marty, I think ole' Ford blue is it , or as close as this country by needs to come. Thanks again Brobob:stupid:

Thanks Rolf Good pics , just what I had in mind. Brobob:stupid:

well, I am not up on the proper terminology just yet but.. I have a 2.8 short block with a 2.4 head and round top carbs. I want to make it appear to be a correct 2.4 with the paint color. Thanks Brobob

Oh I figured everyone knew what an FNG was.............. F___king New Guy. Yeah I spent 11 years in uniform and now I just supply Joe Soldier with the right equipment to kill his enemy. Brobob

I am blasting and painting today (airdam). Urethane paint is a must ! That is why its getting blasted. I will shade tree the support for the airdam ,and hide it behind the plate. I still think the grill opening looks odd, so maybe I will play around with some expanded aluminum and see what I come up with. Thanks again. Brobob:stupid:

What was the original paint color for the engine block ? I believe the head stays unpainted ? Mine is not painted and I want to make it look as correct as possible. Thanks Brobob:stupid:

I have a 73 240 . This weekend I plan on installing the front air dam and rocker skirts. The air dam is one of those full valance types that you remove the 3 pcs under the nose. Question is....What do you guys/gals use for a grill once this is installed because it appears that the grill will only fill about half the opening ? Question 2 .......The air dam is urethane and is very flexable do you folks use any type of bracing beyond the obvious bolts thru the nose ? I dont want to install it only to have it sucked under the car or crack up the paint on it ! Thanks for the replies and if you have pics that would help. Brobob:stupid:

I wish mine looked that good ! At least yours is one color ,even if it is primer .

Hello Z nutz, I figure a intro is due . I am a old Z nut myself and look foward to gathering information on my Z project from you folks. I am a production/ site manager of a govt repair facility that repairs Army trucks. I have been a Z nut for sometime and currently have a 73 240Z, 280 low end , 240 head and round top carbs, 4 spd , I will have back on the road sometime next week but will continue to improve its looks as soon as the mechanical is complete. I love to trade parts and drink a beer or two chasing them . I am in the Fort Worth area of Texas and was wondering about local clubs ? Parts is parts ya know. I will post pics as soon as it looks decent enough to post . Anyhoo thanks for reading . Brother Bob (Its an Army thing):stupid:
