HI everyone,

I've been searching for many years for a rust free car but came to the conclusion that it doesn't exist here in Canada (Quebec).

While searching, I went on the atlanticZ website and found some nice guys that import them from California........ my research has stop here.

Few weeks later, the car arrived at home and I'm very happy about it. Very solid, nearly rust free, nice interior and nice chrome parts.

The car seem to run well but need a little refresh on the mecanics.

It has been sitting for 19 years bit is very well preserve. Paint is pelling but this I can handle easely (I'm a bodyworker)

Glad that I found a low number vin (....2901) and can't wait to start the project.

My plan is to remove the interior and motor to repaint the right color (white). No rust (except a little surface rust under the battery tray) so it will be strip and repaint.

I'm not taking out the mecanics since I want to have it run for next summer. Probably keep it for another winter.

Here is a picture of it and you will probably see me on the forum searching for some help this winter!!!!

Welcome, nice car. Looks like someone did a nice job of melding the spoiler to the car.

You're gonna love your '70!

You should check out some of member kats's posts and see if you have some of the rare pieces from early Z's.

My #1704 has a few and finding them has been really cool.

Speak English you yuppies!

[bigoak]

Yuppies??? Not quite...

Joce, I may make the trip to Granby. Not sure on my schedule yet.

[EScanlon]

Speak English you yuppies!

Since this is a TEXT forum, did you by chance mean WRITE in English? :stupid:

Or haven't you had Remedial English 101 yet?

... OOPS! I'd forgotten you were going to Ark-U, I meant English as a Second Language-A...

Besides, this being an International Forum... so SHADDAP!!

Joce;

Bienvenue ici. J'espere qu'il-y-aura plusieur de questions sur le Zed. Vous trouverai le response ici avec le "Search", ou avec un nouveau "Thread".

(My French is extremely rusty...)

Feel free to use the search, and if the thread(s) you find don't completely answer your question, then either add to that older thread (and make sure it ADDS to the thread, i.e. don't post "me too!"), or start a new one.

Hope this helps

Bah! It's a lot less rusty than mine, as I haven't spoken any Français in over 30 years.
