Just picked up a striped roadster
I dont know maybe its a bit to much but i think i can do it. Its got no body damage so all i need to do is send the parts out to get painted. Rest I can just bolt on at home.

well, that oil spot you see is not from this Z. Was there from something else. Actually car runs and drives as it is. Engine and trans in perfect condition. I started the engine and even drove the car before i paid for it.
