My 71 Before & After

Featured Replies

I thought I would make a quick post here for some of the guys I know who do not visit other Z sites as often. You may remember when I bought my 71 late last year and it looked like this:

After some work this Summer and Fall, I was able to take her for a drive this past weekend. A complete motor and suspension swap from my old 73 car took place. This is what she looks like now:

Just have a bunch of small things to finish over the winter.......then I get to move on to the 70 car.

LOVE the flares!! What size tires are those? Nice to see the Whale Tail went bye bye.

Tires sizes:

Fronts are 255/40/17 17x9.5 wheel

Rears are 315/35/17 17x11 wheel

I hope to have a 510 that looks as good as yours!

Glad to see you in a Z with a real paint job....

Hey, I loved the old two tone paint/primer :love:

Clive is being his usual modest self.

The pictures only present HALF of the picture. When he fires it up it gets

everybody's attention, and the earth tremor wakens the dead for miles

around. LOL I found out personally at the recent NYZCC event......Rick
