I'm going to skip a few steps here, but I thought that I would share a few pictures with my fellow z-car enthusiasts.
About three years ago I bought my '76 280z which I paid too much for. The car turned into a basket case and went on a rotisserie 2 years ago for pretty extensive rust repairs (including floors and subframe on both sides). Finally, it is off the rotisserie and sitting on 4 wheels again. There is still a long way to go, but there is no denying that a milestone has been reached. Enjoy the photos.
I found it! Honsowetz: Glue compressed fibre, reusable pan gasket to oil pan with weatherstrip adhesive. Coat the block side of the gasket with antiseize compound.
While my 77' is in for body work (rockers,doglegs,and rear valence), I took the leap and POR15'd the fuel tank, inside and out. I've been wanting to do this for a while now and was inspired by this thread http://www.classiczcars.com/topic/17542-treating-insideoutside-of-gas-tank-with-por15-products-and-removing-evaporation-tank/page-2?hl=tank

The problem is I'm getting old and can't even remember what I had subscribed to. Bushing threads, motor threads, I can't even remember them all of them...
