yiannit280z Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 SO my dad s had the car for about 25 years and 2 years ago he gave the Z to me. I had started doing little minor fixes to get it all working perfectly again. Then i decided it was time to pull it apart and paint it. what i thought to be a year long side project turned into 2 years and counting. Heres some pics in relatively the order ive worked in. when i first started The first day i decided to start doing bodywork what looked like a clean fender ended up finding a nice bit of rust that needed patching rocker needed some help as well caused by a leak in the hatch somewhere patched the fender(did ok for my first time but it still rough) then it looked like this until i decided to ditch the side markers also ditched the molding that came with the car(stripe was just to cover up the bare metal,its ugly i know) got the 240z wheel to work with the 280z hornpad then i POR15 coated the rust that was on the inner fenders now they look like this after a few coats of spray on rubberized under coating And these are the last pics since ive worked on it last wednesday oh and inbetween all this i used glass stain spray to do this Thought it looked pretty cool ive done some more to it i just dont have pics but ill take some and keep you guys up to speed Quote Link to comment
troyt Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 Lucky you, that's one nice Z your dad gave you! Make sure you treat it as nice as he obviously did :thumbup: Fix the rust, keep the electrical connections clean, and go pick up girls with a cool '70s sports car!. Then go add a turbo, lower it, flare it, big brake kit, coil-overs, etc, etc, etc... 1 Quote Link to comment
