-->Some new pics!<--

Well here are some new pics of the car I took on this beautiful 85 degree day here in Florida. I painted my hood vents and sail panel covers also today, I think they came out good. Check out my video link by my sig. I gotta get the LSD!!!

I usually don't like the pre-82 chrome sail panel covers, but with yours blacked out with a chrome edge looks really good! I'm going to have to re-consider my position on that one.

That is a nice looking car. Its actually hard to find a slick top 82-83 z-car. The color is very unique too. Strangely, I had talked to a guy a few years back from Florida with a gold painted 280ZX that had side pipes. You guys just like everything gold down there.

Thanks everyone, I still have more plans for the car but it is coming along nicely. The paint is actually a 2002 Chrysler color that was used on the $44,000 Prowler and the 2002 Chrysler PT Dream Cruiser Series 1 and is called Inca Gold, it's a metalic paint and looks alot better when the car is clean and has a coat of wax on it. It would not have been my first choice of color but it will do till I can get the car painted the way I want (with Nissan color). Dark tint is a must though but that will be done by a buddy and ex co-worker of mine, Donny at StylinFx in St. Marys, Ga. He has a wonderful computer controled machine that cuts the tint perfectly for the car so none of the sloppy cut by hand tint and I can get the rear hatch glass done with one piece. Cost, oh hows about $120-$130 with Solargaurd tint sound?
