For years I have wanted a Z, ever since my dad had his 280z that he kept from his when he was 22 till it died when I was 14 (my dad was 45 at the time). I finally got my first Z two weeks ago. I have scoured this site for knowledge for about 6 months building up to my purchase and I can say I absolutely this is my first and absolute resource. That search button is the best thing ever, its like google for everything 350z , but all in all I am looking forward to contributing to the site with as much knowledge as I can learn on my own about our wonderful cars.

 

Where's the 280Z?

Congrats!

 

Thanks my man and yeahh the 280z finally went down for the count with 320,000 miles on it. My dad knew that car up and down and kept it up so well, sad day when the engine seized and couldnt be unfrozen.

 

Ok....?.....where is it though....the shell?

 

Congrats on the Z!

 

thank you taryon!

KingBaby I have no idea bro, insurance took the car, they totalled it out.

welcome and congrats. you just bought the car. get to know its true stock form before you decide to boost it.

and I can say this car is super fun to drive haha

 

Congratulations. Hope you have a very long run of ownership with the car as your dad did with his 280z.


He should have put a new engine in it. If the body wasn't been eaten by rust worm as most of the old Z's do eventually.

 

Thanks bro and idk why he gave it up, I would have definitely done that if I knew anything about cars at that time lol

 

Are you talking about the oem Le Mans Sunset color?
