240z with the roof cut off, capri tail lights, V8 etc,etc, on ebay for stupid amounts of money.

Spending 50G's on a car doesnt mean the car is worth anywhere near what was spent on it.

tell him he's dreaming

You missed the 280zx dashboard.

The back of that thing looks so ugly! What was he smoking? Haha Haha!

Mine looked way better than that!

The Castle!!!!!

i dont know how anybody could massacre such a nice looking car. i wonder if body strengthening means anything to him?!

Tom.

PS: GEEEEES, i still cant believe how you could bring yourself to do such a thing. convertible looks ok, but the dash and rear lights look much to out of place for my liking.

It looks like a capri from behind. Probably used the capri bumper. crapi !

Well spotted Gav, but might it also be a 300zx dash?

300zx's have only 2 centre gauges this one has 3 which leads me to believe it's a 280zx dash but can't be sure since I'm not a huge fan of the S130 or Z31.

I've been in a z31. A girl I was at uni with had one. Never seen the dash of a z31 till then. Couldn't believe how incredibly ugly the dash was. Guess I blocked it out of my mind.

I'd love to know what goes through people's minds before they decide to do this, especially considering a Cobra replica is about 50 grand.

Being an S130 fan, I can tell you that iit is a 280ZX dash in the 240Z

Ive seen pictures of convertible 240z that look good but this is ugly and what better dash can u get than a 240z its a classic

all that money spent and he puts the V8 in on normal style engine mounts thought everyone who considered a v8 z had read jags that run book which shows u how to mount a chev well back in the engine bay

more money than thought here

Gee you blokes are hard

Would not be my favourite convertible conversion but its not too bad, for the right price of course The dash is a personal thing, my preference is the S130 dash over the S30. Some of the 'modern' features make it look a bit off, the wheels for example.

As far as engine placement goes, from what view is available the distributor is close to the firewall, unlike most other cars the S30 does not need the engine hard back against the firewall to get good weight distribution. Unless its a fair bit heavier than the L series donk.

But yeh, the money he is asking is ridiculous
