Hi Z guys.I'm a newb and just got my first Z. I have posted a few times in the "240SX" and "general" but it is time to break my cherry in the "CLASSIC" forum. I have big plans for this car and hope to share them with you. Let's start with a few pictures.

I have been looking for a Z for the past few months. It sucks living in the "rust belt" when looking for a car.

and more



So then I started looking down in the lower states and knew I was getting more of what I wanted.



I passed on these. I hate rust!

Then I found what I was looking for: Rust free, straight, solid body, un-molested, original 240Z, and what a beauty!



I am not going to restore this car back to original condition, but I promise that I will do my best to represent the Z badge well. I cannot wait to get started.

Nice s30! I wouldn't claim rust free though as I'm sure there's some hinding under that poor primer job

Now we are trying to figure how to get it into the car for the trip back on the transporter.
