Thanks for your time thefastestz. I will compile and send a few people to them... actually it would be easier to direct them here.

I hope to be looking again too in about a year... but for a V8 this time... maybe.

Great topic, Harry. I am the proud original owner of a ''71 series 1 Z which has recently undergone a frame up, very original, restoration. My main point; there aren't that many series 1 cars left that are in restorable condition. Of those, most will probably be highly modified instead of restored to factory specs due to the availability and cost of original parts. Value was not the primary consideration for doing this restoration which cost me in the $30,000 range, but I have been told by those in the business that I got off cheap. Nissan ended up doing only about 40 instead of 200 restorations due to availability of part. Considering all of these factors, I believe that these original restorations will rapidly increase in value in the near future. My car has many new, not reconditioned ,parts that can only be found, very rarely, in dusty store rooms or in the dreams of a restorer. I am by no means wealthy, but, having owned this car for over 32 years, this is something I had to do, something my wife and friends will never understand.

Right on AZ-240z! In my opinion, you are right on the mark. You will not regret what you have done... hopefully in the very near future.
