71datsunZ

I am in the middle of restoring my z but I'd still love to go to a show. I'm in NJ

Just so you know.. my family owns a car audio buisness Let me know what you think www.awe1.com

Hey guys.. I have two reproduction rocker panels that I bought for my 240z that I no longer need. What are they selling for now? I cant really find them for sale anywhere. Someone showed some interest in buying them but I don't know how much to sell them for and I don't really remember how much I paid. Thanks for any input.

woo.. its my bday

sounds good... im a beginner with this stuff though =( Whats the story behind your z?

Labeling is one thing I made sure I did =) Right now the car is totally stripped and the body work is being done at a shop. The engine was taken out someplace and its coming to my house tomorrow and im going to clean it up so I can put it back inside the car when its ready for it. Hopefully I will do alright putting it back together. I cleaned out the garage today so I can work on the engine pretty easily. After not working on it for months im really excited to get going on it again With this project I am outsourcing a lot of the work because I dont really know what im doing. I learned a lot on this project and I am seeing how some of the other stuff is done. My next project should be done completely by me. Should be a lot cheaper that way =)

Not too far from you... im in Piscataway.. you have an aol screen name I could talk to you on?

the compressor I have is pretty small.. i dont know if it could power air tools.. I guess I could try though

Dont own the welder yet... I was going to wait for my next project to buy that one. I am having the welding done on my Z by someone else. Next project will be all me though. I have the rest of the stuff though

What tools are absolute must haves when restoring a car? I have a lot but I want to round out my collection for my birthday.. so far I was thinking of getting these Angle grinder Ball pein hammer and a punch What else can I add to the list?

Does anyone put together a complete bolt replacement kit for the 240z... I am putting a lot of time and money into the car and I dont want to put the old rusted bolts back in. Pretty much every bolt, fender, hinges, hood, brackets, etc...

msa is out of stock... a lot of people are backordered

I ordered floors and rockers from MSA today... I should have them on monday. I believe I paid $522 with 2nd day air. I wouldnt have gone air but the shop needs to keep working. I wanted it from Z car source but they didnt have floors available

My z just left for the body shop and I need quarters, rockers, floors, and rear body panel. I need to get these parts fast. Anyone ever buy used parts from here? www.zcarsource.com Where would you suggest that I buy these parts. Are full quarters available? I am not interested in zedd findings because shipping would kill me. Thanks

looks clean.... I would like to see your car. Personally its not my style but still did a good job

how is the rear panel above the tail light panel?

my 71 has metal ones and both of my 70's have fiberglass. From what I have heard, In the beginning they couldn't figure out how to form the metal into the right shape. Thats why they used fiberglass. Then, later on they found out how to do it with metal and switched over.

I saw a chrome hood prop for over $50 I thought that it was a bit expensive

im 17 and im completely restoring my z that my dad gave me... whats wrong with that?

Btw my car just had surface rust there so when i was done i used por 15 in there to prevent future rust. You may want to do that when u get a new one or get that one fixed.

grind it and see what you have left

i may do it but modify the text in there

its a dogleg

I took mine to a mechanic and they used a press and didnt charge me anything

Hey.. im in NJ too. What area are you from?
