Looking good. I was thinking you've got some work ahead of you at first until I got to the after paint section What I could see of the interior looks pretty clean too. Dash looked to be in really good shape. Did you paint it yourself? IF so you did a really good job.

thanks, a friend of mine that owns a paint shop painted it for me. as you can probably tell the drivers side rear quarter panel needs repainting, because my grandfather backed it into a pole right after it was painted. to fix the damage he had to take it all the way back down to the metal and instead of taking it back to the paint shop, he just spray painted that section of the car. but since i got a paint job for almost nothing i guess i can't complain.

just wondering if anyone has some turbo rims they would like to sell, you can't really tell from the pics but those rims are really starting to show thier age. looks like previous owner hit a few curbs with them.

They will like to ride and talk about riding in a car that's older than them only if it looks nice and runs. The second either of those don't meet the standards they will hate it.

True, my wife always tells me that when I get my Z to a like new condition then she wont gripe about having to drive around in it. She loves the way it drives, but to her, it's just embarrassing to be in a car that doesn't look new.

How many engines have you pulled before? "Easy" is relative....
