^^^^I think it sat for at least 4 years and the wheels are hard to turn but something hopefully a little lube and grease can fix............as for everything else we'll see I'll let you all know as I go but like I said I'll start this hopefully on Thursday.

So I spent about 3.5 hours on it today I wanted to get the top layer of grime off so I pressure washed the exterior and engine bay. I also removed the seats and shop vac'd the interior a tad bit. I was only planning on focusing on the interior but my curiousity got the best of me so I put a battery in it and tried to fire it up. I realized I only had a small amount of starting fluid so I had it running for a second or two. I was definitely pleased it turned over with no real issues. Well here a a few pics I snapped, I promise I'll do better next time, I hit a small area with some compound then a little wax and it looked a little better but not much.

When i first read that, I saw it as "red FD with 58k in it" (as in $), and I thought, what the hell is he doing messing around with that Z!?

never been much of a fan of the 2+2 s-chassis, but good find and good luck! It's gonna be more work than how it seems on the surface; words from experience with my eternal s30 project, haha!
