So as some of you know i was getting rid of my RX7 (FC) and it took me a while but someone finally wanted her, and wanted to trade. Not just any trade, but something that i have wanted for (literally) 16 years now.







a 1975 280Z that i can now call mine. I have already begun work on her with a friend of mine and we are sanding her down (previous owner had already done some body work) and getting some fresh paint on her. Then taking care of some suspension issues (4X4 issues) and of course the little things. She runs beautifully already so im not going to mess with that just yet, but i do see FI in the future.


nd for pics!

engine shot just because:



took some stuff apart like the cowl, air dam, and taillight assembly:



working on the wet sanding to even out the body (my friend is helping me so we are each doing one side... but he worked in a body shop)



she has been through a few different colors is see...



and more progress...





just getting the other fender done and the cowl...







and reassembly!







interior...



and the suspension giving me a hassle...



and my weapons of choice!









i cant get my blinkers to work, but other than that everything works even the AC... Im thinking about trading my wheels for something a little closer to period correct but i like them for now haha
