Hello All,

Just wanted to introduce myself since I just signed up...long overdue LOL

I own a 1971 240Z that is in the middle of restomod project, which has been slightly slowed down due to impending marriage haha.

Anyway I have seen so much good reading material from this forum, and hoping to share some as well with you all.

Luke

Welcome! Post some pictures :)

Where in the Bay Area are you? Looks like lots of new comers in the Bay recently.

Thank you for the kind words everyone. Im from the east bay, over by Walnut Creek.

Here are some pictures of the current state the car is in. I got the car a little over a year ago and have been slowly working on it. This year I should have a lot more free time to finish up the exterior.

Definitely looks like a workable project. I'm really digging those wheels! Looks like you got an authentic set of original JDM Black Fender Mirrors. Hope you can get her on the road sometime soon!

Thanks Glenn! It was road worthy, and it pains me every day that I cannot drive her around with bare metal exposed haha. Im checking out your blog, and I remember hearing about your Fairlady Z from my friend Ivan. Very very very very very nice find, and im happy you rescued it!

Hey, looks like you have a good foundation, if the body is good everything else is fixable. By the way did you do anything changes to the engine or is it original.

Welcome to the forum, great looking project, love the mirrors and as long as you persevere you will get it completed!

Welcome to the forum. The body looks nice and solid. Keep it going and good luck with the restoration.

Ah yes! I have spoken to Ivan a few times. Last I heard from him he purchased another toy to accompany his Hakosuka. Any idea what it was? I presumed it was a Fairlady Z, as during that time there was one up for same. Thank you for the complements, the Fairlady is getting some head work but should be back on the road soon :)

Im in the East bay too Nismo, but im in Castro Valley. My car is located at work in mountain view though since I she's not registered yet
