alexcampos240z Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 radiator shop? Quote Link to comment
Dawa Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 yeah, at least some radiator shops can take care of it, call around. after a few days of having acid sit in my tank (BEFORE i ended up using evaporust) i ended up wishing i had brought the tank to a shop. you can always use evaporust for other things so its not a waste Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Ya most rad shops can handle it. I wouldnt waste my time doing that nonsense myself, its well worth the money to have it done right and trouble free. Quote Link to comment
alexcampos240z Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 okay yeah plus i can use the evaporust on other parts of my car like dawa said... its kinda a rust bucket Quote Link to comment

Syncro Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 eww thats cool, well I'm not rich so I doubt I could make a persuading offer, only have tons of cars, think I'm about to start building an offroading 280z. 1 Quote Link to comment
alexcampos240z Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 its alright i was thinking about building it in a couple of years anyways haha, and really like the rally car? Quote Link to comment
Syncro Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 its alright i was thinking about building it in a couple of years anyways haha, and really like the rally car? Maybe, but those magnesium wheels are impossible to find. I'll be using my old tracker 4x4, got into a roll over, so the body is shot but the floor pan and frame are still good, and the parts z I've got would need new floors to be buildable, so I'm probably just gonna try to find a way to set the z body on the tracker, it'll be pretty roomy if I do it right, may end up trying to be an l motor implace of the boat achor thats in the bay, the motor in the tracker it rebuilt, but its just slow as hell. 1 Quote Link to comment
