Back in the Z again

Hello Everyone,

A couple of years ago I fell on hard times and I had to sell my beloved 1981 280ZX non turbo. Since then I have bounced back, saved my pennies, and now proud to say I have taken the plunge and purchased a 1983 280ZX turbo5 speed. I just picked her up over the weekend. She is in decent shape and the motor runs strong and boosts well. I will post picures soon. I look forward to getting back in the Z scene and working on my dream car.

Here are the pictures

Hello Everyone,

I posted some pictures of my newly acquired 280ZX turbo. This is how she looked when I arrived home. She runs great but is in somewhat rough shape body wise.
