My first Z (pics)

Hey guys...I just ran accross two pictures of my first car. It was an 82 280zx turbo. They where taken in 1993 eight years ago. I was just 16 and the two picture you see below (red Z) was taken the morning after I bought it for a little over 2g's cash. I remember I didn't get any sleep the night before as I was up all night cleaning her...looking back then nothing could compare to the feeling I had being able to own my first car and to top it all off it was a beauty. It was a Cali car so it was perfect. The interior and everything else was immaculate and there where no rust. Sadly, after owning her for about a year and spending countless of hours and a few G's on upgrades...I crashed her racing an RX7. I spun the car twice when my rim shattered while making a slight turn at 80mph. Landed the car into a ditch and it was totalled...good thing it was low otherwise I would have fliped. I was young and dumb then...lesson learned...oh well at least I beat the Mazda lol. God...do I wish I still had that car sitting next to my white turbo...now that would be picture perfect.

Here's my current Z...an 83 280zxt (some of you have already seen it). My wife got this Z for my birthday in 1999. She was in the car with me when I crashed my red one and she vowed not to ride in one ever again...so I was quite surprised when she called me about it after seeing it in a Nissan dealership. Needless to say I baby this one big time...infact I've been told more than a couple of times by my friends to really DRIVE the darn thing because I kind of drive it like a granny lol. It's eighteen years old but damn does it haul **** and when I get the itch for speed I do surprise poor unsuspecting souls to show them that this Z still has what it takes to swim with the big fish.
