project update
Tank you very much Carl. The car is not registered yet. Last night was the first time it runs on its own. The only thing I need to do is to finish with the electrical part and check the differential. I Swap , tranny and diff from a 280zx (83). I need the mustache bar from a 280Z and mount to the diff to finish this part. Glenn, to be honest Im very happy with the project, its been 4 and a half years to reach this point. Thank You. Its the best feeling when you see results.

project update
Hi all. Finally she`s alive. Thank you to this forum and some members that help me out with hard to find parts (at least in Panama). I like to thanx Yetterben an Evilz for their help, they make my project possible. My engine is an L28E from a 1983zx but im going to swap to SU carbs. The car in the post is mine but I built this engine for my best friend (single carb at this moment). This site is the best.

New 280zx at home
Just like to show my new toy. Im going to take all the parts I need to finish my 240 z from this car. The engine is running fine, but I like to swap to carbs and then get some tripples for the second engine. It is very difficult to find these cars here in Panama, so decided to pick up this one as a parts car. Probably I can give this body to a friend of mine who wants to build a car.
