Who's not down with Datsun?
 
http://good-times.webshots.com/album...hsIsRE?start=0

Went and picked this up today for a G. Pretty nice overall. Paint sucks real hard, but im not real worried about it. What you guys think? I have some real good plans for it but I need to find a job first... Anyone know of something? lol. It would be a big help. Not real sure what im gonna do first, but the rust and ignition switch are high on the list. I really just wanna get some killer suspension on it and drive the **** out of it.. I guess in time..

ughhh i hate you...

i want to restore a 70's 240z so bad

Cutlass372 03-01-2008 09:30 PM

Lol don't hate. Your car is cool too. Plus they are around, the difficult part is finding one without a lot of rust.

Cutlass372 03-01-2008 10:23 PM

congrats bud...i know youve been looking for a while now and finally found one to pick up

awesome looking car and cant wait to see what happens in the future for it

Cutlass372 03-01-2008 11:47 PM

Thanks guys, I think its gonna be a real fun project. No v8 or RB series. If I do a motor swap its gonna be the L28ET from the 81-83 280zx. They make some good power and they are cheap to pick up. Throw on a bigger turbo and some upgrades and your set.

congrats on finally getting your hands on one bro!

Cutlass372 03-02-2008 12:27 AM

Thanks man! I was gonna message you and let you know I picked one up. Can't wait to drive it around! :)

namdoogwerdna 03-02-2008 12:28 AM

Come take me for a ride when you get it squared away bro =]

Cutlass372 03-02-2008 12:38 AM

I'll definatly try and bring it out to some meets when I get it ready.

namdoogwerdna 03-02-2008 12:46 AM

Thats nice right there. My pops used to have a 280zx. When he first bought it was white, then he had it painted black. Aww that car was so clean, so nice. I was so pissed when he sold it! I think i was 8yrs old when he sold it to get a volvo 760 Turbo Intercooled wagon. Didn't talk to him for like 2 days. Hey man enjoy the datsun brotha!! Happy you found what you were looking for.

Cutlass372 03-02-2008 12:32 PM

Anyone know where I can score some sick ass black 5 spokes in 4x114.3 with a 0 offset??

ozthunder 03-02-2008 08:37 PM

My first real car was a Datsun 280ZX. Man I loved that thing. When I am rich, I will have many! lol
