My 79' s130 project "still needs a name"

So i picked up my 79' 280zx last spring an have done a few things since getting her but nothing real major. I have installed nick buckets out of a 1990 Celica, a wood grain grant steering wheel, cut a whole in the center console for a cup holder, re-wired my ignition through switched an a push button due to the stock ignition busting on me, had a aftermarket stereo installed, chopped down the stock shifter an replaced the **** with a pool ball an the boot with an aftermarket ebay one, replaced the clutch, installed a cherrybomb glasspack with 2.5 straight pipe, and painted the body black with orange stripes for shitz n gigz (shakey can cuz im cheap)

I plan on eventually doin real body work an repainting her gloss black, doing a compleat black interior swap with red carpet an headliner, removing the front bumber an replacing the front lip with one that dosent have the bumper indents, installing fender flairs an a rear window louver, replacing the headlights with Halo's an fogs with red Halo's, completely rebuilding the engine an boosting it, an slamming her when she isnt my DD (i do plan on lowering her some soon tho) i also have a set of black, 5 spoke, 16" enkies im goin to put on in the spring

Well here's an official "Welcome to ZDriver!"

As for the name... maybe... "Über-Ghetto-Z" aka "UGZ"

Cool. I'm just over in Victoria, BC - a few hundred miles west of you.

Nice 120mph speedo. You guys got hosed with the 85mph speedos in most of the 280ZXs in the USA.
