Thanks Guy. I'll def call you when I get closer to tackling the restore.

Holy crap! Reading about the "Blacked Out Section" Carl and Motorman7 were talking about just made me realize I have more paint to do. I verified on some old photos that mine originally had this paint as well, though most of it had worn away. Guess I should get the spot behind the rear window underneath the Z emblem at the same time... Any other blacked out sections?

Can someone check their front lower radiator crossmember (where the horn bolts up) and see if that was blacked out or not. I had a bunch of overspray on mine in addition to the radiator blackout. Trying to figure out if the overspray was factory or one of the many crappy paint jobs on the car.

The radiator cross member of my car is the body color, and the car has never been repainted before.

GreenZZZ,

I can post pics of the blacked out sections of my car around the radiator tomorrow if that would be any help to you.

Thanks for checking Chase! Between your car and Dan's (240dkw) photo a few pages back, mine is definitely overspray from a US paint gun, not Japan.

Lee.....Rich's post 184 clearly shows the lower radiator bracket was not blacked out.Carl Beck's pics that he e mailed me also shows the lower bracket is not blacked out. See post 184 for reference. Guy
