First time under it's own power in almost 3 years... in other words, FINALLY!!!

WOW, that is a sexy car. I'd try to describe just how good that looks to me but then you probably already know how good it looks Thanks for remotivating me on the whole white thing. I originally wanted to go with white but started to have my doubts. I'd say you fixed that with those pics

Are those the mustang taillights we saw posted in another thread? Cant really tell from the angle of the pics.

Everything flows beautifully. i like how the headlight buckets were even molded in. Two thumbs up on that one.

 

Yep, that's them...05 Mustang Taillights grafted in, in STEEL, NO BONDO...85+ hours of steel fab work plus frenching in the license plate.

 

man for white that looks kick ***
great tail lights btw...really nice...

 

very clean.. the kit looks so much better when its molded to the body... looking at your car makes me miss my first Z a white 79...

 

man I'd love to have a 280ZX like that. That's one of the sexiest Z's I've seen.

 

Love it !!!!!!! But why is there only one emblem on one side ??

 

Could be because I'm not quite through with all the fine details yet. Notice there are 3 holes in the right fender for the emblem as well as 2 in the hood for the emblem there too. After DRIVING it out of the garage for the first time in almost 3 years, and seeing how the lighting was at the moment, I just snapped the pics...ever the opportunist. If you look closely, there is one white door handle and one black one and there is no chrome trim at the top of the door yet. I plan on doing a full photo layout in the near future, but like I said, I HAD to take the shots.

I love it! Like everyone said, very good work. I like the side markers. Are those Hyundai? I got some on my Datsun truck like that. Very good molding in of everything.

yes thank you for taking early shots of the car. Do the details and then get more pics.

 

Looks awesome!. It's kinda like my anti-car It's the Luke Skywalker to my Darth Vader . Looks really good man, nice work indeed.

Rod.

 

yes what are those sidemarkers? i hate that stock ones bulge out...

 

Very clean work! I was skeptical about the Mustang taillight conversion, but now that I see the finished product, it looks very nice! Mad props on the clean body work, the moulding, and keeping everything fresh.

Makes me want to work on my Z.

 

Beautiful work. I remember seeing pics of the progress with the tail lights when it was posted on hybridZ as well as this forum.

 

very very nice car.
Congratulations on getting it running.

 

Sweet car man, different than what I usually see. And I am not a big fan of white, but it looks tight on your Z! Good job on everything, and congrats for getting it running. I will soon, in less than a month or so. Mad props to you bro'

 

Definately A Motivation For Me, Beautiful Job....

 

i told you guys that those mustang tail-lights kick ***

 

VERY NICE, I LIKE PEOPLE ARE STILL BUILDING WITH STEEL LIKE ME. I ALMOST THOUGHT IT WAS A LOST ART. MAKES ME WANT TO SMOOTH OUT MY TAILLIGHTS

 

I am glad you took the early pics. Very nice work

 

That i svery Nice indeed.. I envy you

 

Looks great, nice job with the tail lights. I like it a lot.

 

Sexy, those stang lights look great

 

That's a phenominal job. The blending of the headlight buckets and the front and rear bumpers really make that car look right.

Good job.

 

Perfection takes a lot of hard work, long hours and skill. Well done for putting all 3 of these qualities into your Z.

 

hey warren how did you get the buckets and fenders to join without cracking later. mine are always cracking at that joint, cause i tried the same thing. i used urethane then a little bondo. (steel to fiberglass no weld) i hate bondo
