Anyone have a 240Z in 115 Blue Metallic that they are willing to sell? This color was only available between 1972-1973. I would prefer it to be original paint but doesn't have to be. Pictures to share would be great as well!

Thanks for everyone's input! I definitely will be using a respirator for all the body work. Melting back the filler seems like the way to go. I can hopefully get a better idea as to how it should all go back together and what metal needs to be welded in. More water must have pooled up on this side as the driver side is clean.

Hey everyone, I’ve got a 1978 280Z that I’m in the process of restoring. The plan is to make it “OEM plus” with a 3.0 Rebello. I might start a build thread for fun but for now I have the chassis stripped down and am starting to tackle the rust areas. One area of rust that I hope the community could give some insight on is the area at the corner of the cowl that meets the inner fender and windshield. The car sat in a yard in the Conroe, TX area for years and I imagine rainwater pooled up and did its thing. Has anyone had rust here before and if so what would be the best way to repair it? I also noticed that the fresh air shaft/vent for the HVAC blower motor is pretty rotted out. How bad is it to remove the cowl sheetmetal welds and tackle it from above? I appreciate y’all’s time and any input to tackle these areas!
