Cool '76 Datsun Z

Day i got it, $2000 From San Mateo, California




Shit was way too high, had to lower it.


Got some Longchamps, 15x7 lame size i know but they were free.

car looked like shit
Car came with a lightly built motor, .20 overbore, ld28 crank and some cam that was obviously TOO big.


And it blew up, most likely the cam was the cause. Oil was full of metal.


So i pulled it out and rebuilt it,

Just gotta hook everything up



Done


Then it came time to lower it more. Got some Koni red shocks for a VW, and 10kg 7" Springs This setup let me be at a lower height with the collars all the way up.





Thanks to ian for his fab skill sectioning and welding the coilover bodies.


So here it is, all done. This is how the car sits with the collars turned down about 3-4 turns...Notice i primered the car lol the black paint got really annoying.
