Project Z

Man that sucks! Thats where I live, I was just up the road at that time. I will be sure all speakers are secured in my car when it is done.

Very nice! I can dig it...

are the rear shock tower covers in good condition? What color?

Wow you guys are great, thanks for the comments. Unfortunately I cannot take credit for the "cowbweb" mod, however I did spend some time with the car tonight cleaning it out. I removed all of the carpet and seats and it seems alomost perfect under there. I will post some more pics tomnorrow. there are a few body issues I will have to deal with like that left rear quarter panel, but my grandfather gave me the car for free so I won't complain. Those are weber down draft carbs and it is an l24 engine. Should be fun...:paranoid:

this is not letting me upload attachment you can get it here. http://mysite.verizon.net/j.edalgo/260z.pdf

So I just got my 260 with a "new" l24. I will be getting into it this weekend but I thought I would post some pictures and see what you guys thought. I may be in over my head but I uess I will find out. It has not been driven since 88 and used to run great. Although it has been kept in a garage since then I see surface rust. Oh well, I just hope you guys like me cause I will have to spend plenty of time here asking questions. For your viewing enjoyment, here are the pictures of my zcar endeavor.:nervous:

A Trunk Monkey!

I am interested in finding out more info on this as well.

Why did it smoke? Were the carbs the cause?

So my 260z arives next week, I am inheriting a project car from my grandfather. It has a L24 engine with about 4,000 miles on it and a Dual Weber set up. I know there may be varing opions on this matter but being a newbie are there drawback to having tis type of setup. Should I budget an SU conversion? I just need something that runs good and perfoms well. Any help would be apprieciated. Thanks - J

Brilliant!!

I hope this isn't too off topic but this is my favorite z movie, sorry not on the big screen but I love youtube. Sorry if you guys have seen this before but I just saw it for the first time this morning. That thing is nuts.

Thanks Tom! I do appreciate the free advice. I am going to do just that.

Oh yes I want to do the work myself, that is the fun of it right? I will probably leave the painting to a pro but that is about it.

in your experiance are the rubber seals hard or expensive to replace if I were to just do it all at once? Thanks again for all the help. -Jeremy
