looks like a cool project but what about all the bullet holes?? I see ALOT of bullet holes!! was it from a AK47?

[Low_key_350Z]

found ak shells, and what looks like a 50 cal through 2 parts..

[whiterps13]

What the **** happened to that thing? Do you have any information on it or what?

I would say project is an extreme understatement.

Best of luck to you, I hope you have the time and dedication to give that car what it needs.... everything.

[USsil80]

wow ... hope your body guy has alot of time... looks like it will be fun though

[One_Love]

that car got raped.

good luck with the project

[rchboy]

i hope you have as much fun building it as someone did destroying it

[1WheelWonder]

Holy **** that poor 350z, should be awesome to see that thing progress.

[adrianfromthecastle]

650 + 45$ tow

and Clean title belive it or not :-)

[USsil80]

wow good price but how much of the car needs to be replaced as in windows and panels and such

[nsrZ32]

That's officially the roughest 350Z I've ever seen. Good luck with bringing her back from the dead! Can't wait to see more pictures of the progress

[Florida240sx]

I'd liek to know the story behind that Z. What size turbo you got on her?

[Low_key_350Z]

gt45 :-) stolen from the dealership lot and then the car was left in the forst

[NSR240sxe]

Good god! Thats about the worst shape I've ever seen a car in. Props to you for picking it up and fixing it. Congrats and Welcome to NICO!! I can't wait to see this car come along.

[blue_specv]

damn thats dope ... good luck with that ...

so are you gonna make the Z into AWD ? or do you have any plans on that transmission ?

[Dano]

Wow, that thing is rough! Good luck with the project, keep us updated! Most importantly... Welcome to NICO!!!

AK shells?!

Kudos to you. I would have taken one look at that thing and said screw that. Good luck with it!

That Z has been through a lot in it's short life!

Are you keeping it the same color? Blue and gold are one of my fave color schemes.

I agree I think it looks great for STI's and 350Z's!

[Dano]

Any updates?

[shayrgob]

Any updates?

+1 I'm REALLY curious

[skydvrz]

Hey neighbor - nice to see another Z here in Olympia. The restoration is the easy part - Next, you'll have to try and get it up past 58 MPH in the fast lane on I5

Keep us posted on the restoration!

Hey guys, first-timeposter to this board.

Funny you should mention that color-scheme Ka-Te cuz thats the exaxt one I have on my DB 350Z with Top Secret Gold GT-C's. I'll see if I can find some pics later.

Anyways, to the thread poster- you couldn't find any other chassis in your area. With it being hit not only by 7.62's but .50 cals aswell, might that compromise some of the structural intergrity in some areas?

[nsrZ32]

^ welcome to NICO man

As for this thread......we need an update!

[NSR240sxe]

^^Whoa! 2 more new members in this thread Welcome!!

[ZYUL8R]

This thread drew me here..haha..never knew about it. Nice..i'm still new here but have been on several other boards for years. 350z motoring, classic z cars, hybrid z, ect.

[nissan_blood]

Damn sombody got blasted in that car. And he didnt live from the way it looks

[Brainleash69]

It wouldve been better to jus buy a used Z. But whatever, I guess everyone likes to challenge themselves. Post pics as the project comes along. Maybe it can show these youngens what being a car guy is all about.
