Syncro Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 I hate it when I have those "damn that would of been so much easier" moments. So I finished cleaning that tank with a wire wheel today, tore my hand up when the grinder caught the side of the tank and slammed the wire wheel into my hand. Anyway, about 30min before I finished I realized I could of used the sand blaster at my school and been done sooner, easier, and less blood shed. Quote Link to comment

Syncro Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 rust dust=broncitis, pretty sure I'm sick cause the 280z's tank poisoned me. Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted September 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Got the car running a couple days ago after fighting a leaking gas tank and converting back to the damn efi, atleast she's running though, so like a damn f1 car with that exhaust and cherry bomb, especially when reved close to 6k.

Syncro Posted December 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Well I'm picking up 2 more z's. there both 280zs and I'm paying $100 each, there rust free for the most part, no title's on either though, one sorta has a title but its filled out wrong. there both 4 speed car's, one's an n47 and the other's an n42. get both car's from two different people. looks like I'm gonna part both of them out and keep what I need from each. May end up doing a v8 conversion to one for fun. Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 thought about installed some 300zx tail lights on on of the parts cars to see how it looked for about 5 minutes, didn't like the look very much, I really want some 2nd gen firebird tail lights like these, think they'd look pretty cool, decided I'm keeping one of the parts cars since its much straighter then my project Z and its stick.

Syncro Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 my tail lights aren't gonna be ripped directly off a trans am, there gonna be home made out of sheet metal, still not even a definite thing. Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted January 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 drew out how I might like the rear of the car to look, this idea isn't set in stone but I kinda like it. Quote Link to comment
Homeboyx Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 Holy crap.. how many cars do you have?! Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Holy crap.. how many cars do you have?! its really split into 3 share's when it comes to cars. I've got 3 280'z, 1 RX7 FC, 1 Camaro, 2 Eclipse's, and 3 motorcycle's. My dad has 3 motorcycle's, 1 Camaro, 1 Eclipse, 1 Kia sportage, 2 pickups, and any other construction vehicles you see. My Brother has 2 RX7 fb's and 3 motorcycle's. A friend of hours was keeping a taurus in our yard for a while and I've been using as a daily since my z, rx7, eclipse, and pickup broke down on me. Alot of the broken down vehicles would be running if my family didn't keep me busy working on our drilling among other things. Total thats about 25 or so vehicles in are yard. I own 10 vehicle's I suppose, 7 being cars. Quote Link to comment
Homeboyx Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm jealous of your lot.. I wish I had that kind of space. I probably would have as many cars as you. LOL Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 I'm running out of space myself really, but I part out cars as a hobby so few of mine are destined for the crusher, 2 of my z's for sure. Quote Link to comment

Syncro Posted January 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Decided I'm Gonna go full on rat with my new body and paint it something like this, two tone primer grey and flat black. Wanna buy some salt flat caps and a t5 and get started on the v8 swap when I make a little more money. Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 yes or no to this? I'm considering using a slightly beat up T/A firebird spoiler for my own 3 piece. Quote Link to comment
