Z Cars at the 2021 Mitty: Friday Edition Updated
The Z car count seemed to be down in the paddock and infield, possibly due to Covid along with the forecast of rain on Saturday, the most popular day for the Mitty. Here are most of the Z cars I saw today with a couple of Skylines and a 200SX thrown in for fun.

- So back down to RB Import to remove all 4 struct housings and swap the springs.
- RB welded the tailpipe extender in place looks good

Datsun 240z Updated
My 1971 240z.
It has the 73 look because the previous owner crashed it in the nineties and here in Portugal Nissan dealer didn't make any kind of effort to give it the original front. But soon it will be restores.
Kobe seiko whells, rear spoiler, wood steering wheel, 5 shifts gearbox (FS5W71B) and some more european extras.

My “barn find Z” Updated
We had to knock down a wall to get it out. The Z was put into storage in California in 1982 by its first owner, a military doctor. The doctor died and 13 years ago the car was retrieved by his nephew who stored it in his shop with a goal to get it back on the road. Life happened and the shop was expanded, the Z ended up walled in as a garage door was never built. Zero rust. This thing still smells new inside. The suspension bolts still have oem cadmium plating on them. You can still see the ink stamps of the factory inspectors from when new. This car is a true unicorn. I’ve never seen anything like it. It is as if it just rolled off the assembly line and into this guys workshop. It wouldn’t surprise me if this is the lowest mile mint original Z outside of an auto museum. The Car was too long to get it into the storage garage with all the rest of the items in storage and so the bumper was removed to shorten it a couple inches. It was stored due to the car developing fuel system issues. Mileage is 10383. ? . Vin RLS30-016834

This one will be a challenge to say least.
Lots of rust and a tore apart engine to start. Wish me luck, I'll need it and help from this village to make her one again.
cheers
