My 240z is almost done

Featured Replies

Well i had the windshield installed on my 240z yesterday and was finally able to take it out of the garage after a rather lengthy 2 years of restoration. The car still needs a bit of work to get it to a 100% but i could not resist taking and sharing a few pictures. The car still needs to be color sanded and buffed. I'm also waiting on my upgraded headlight and taillight harnesses from MSA and a friend will be over tomorrow to weld in some rear brackets so i can mount the 7/8" sway bar in the back. Right now the car is a lil too slammed but i'll be raising it up an 1" or 2.

Nice looking 240. Not to sound like a smart a$$, but how are you going to turn left and right? The wheels are above the arches.

thanx for the support guys. I'm really proud of how well the car has turned out. I did all the work myself including painting the car in my garage.

Gary I have adjustable suspension and will be raising the car approx 2" before I start driving it.

Looks graet. I just got my engine bay and interior painted(also did it myself). Hope it turns out as good as yours when its all put back together.

Very nice-I'm partial to Red z's!! It's hard to tell from pics-- but I am truly impressed with your garage paint job.

QUESTION / PUBLIC OPINION

Since the current tint on the windows done by the previous owner is rather low quality shoddy job that is now stating to peel. Should I

a. Get it re-tinted with a dark tint?

b. Get it re-tinted with a light tint?

c. Get it re-tinted with a is some color other than the regular black tint?

d. Remove the tint completely?

Remove it and re-tint it with a light black tent to protect your dash (assuming it is in good condition). I've seen cars with colored tints and they look extremely "ricey" IMO.
