I just recently bought a 1980 280ZX 2+2 as my mid-life crisis car. It's a $500 "Craigslist Special" that needs TLC everywhere. But that's fine, I only want the shell and the clear title. The plan is a "po' man's supercar"... too much engine, too much tire, and all the amenities inside. I'm here mainly to network with other owners so I can find some of the more obscure interior parts and to figure out what's wrong with the wiring so I can get the engine running again.
As for me... I've been a car fanatic my whole life. I did my first brake job at the age of five. That was back when cars still had carburetors, points ignition, and (often) only seat belts instead of the standard 3-point harness of today. I've owned 30-odd cars over the years from almost every manufacturer. But I've never gotten around to building "that" car... the one I really want. So here goes.
