Yea , what you did is probably the best choice. Although, it is possible the spray paint jobs hold, only time will tell! But overall I do not think it will be terrible if the pain peels becuase....we are talking about the transmission, which commonly remains unseen

I just pulled my first engine 3 days ago, I am ecstatic!! Anyways I took the tranmission off and I was thinking about this exact topic, but I came across something I was unsure of. How hot does the transmission get when running? I assumed it would become fairly warm from the propeller shaft and gears spinning, along with the exhaust nearby. I had thought about using a standard spraypaint as some fo you did, but I was not sure if it would stay.

I am sure the owner put a lot of hard work on that and I am sure he is a talented guy, although personally I do not like it very much, just my opinion -

Wow, in my opinion that is the definition of a Z -
Can anyone hear tell me more about the president which was released in 1965 or so. I read on an earlier link that it had such technologies like air conditiong and power windows, astounding. I drive a car from '97 and it does not have power windows!

Well if you are looking to learn about Z's this is the place to do it. The is such a wealth of technical knowledge on Z's here it is ridiculous. A few months ago I was just like you starting with nothing and very little knowledge. Just start reading. Everybody here is extremely helpful and commonly aid you in any problems you will come across Now about the Z. You need to look at it and decide what exactly you want to get out of it. A stock restored car? or maybe a rod? The car is not as old as many Z's so it should not take as much money as maybe a 1970's 240Z. Although money makes whole project go round. I say purchase the car and take your time working slowly so you have enough money to do the project and do it right. Now by no means am I an expert on any of this, months ago I was just like you. I am sure more people will chime in on this to give you a hand. Just take one drive in the car and I am pretty sure you will have made your decision....
