    My mom had a 280zx when i was a kid....this is the most beautiful and amazing build of this car i have ever seen....there is so much creativity put into cars to wich they can become works of art

    My 1970 240z looks just like this, would’ve never thought of building it this way.

    Awesome job my man. I had a white 240Z about 15 years ago. Not a bit of rust and body was as straight as a nuns underwear. Always wanted to do something like this, just never did. For your commitment I say CONGRATS.

  • @apophisstr6719

    Very nice to see a build with a clear design vision that not only restricted to body and interior, but flows right through into the engine bay as well, brilliant Z.

    Love all Z cars and have had privilege of owning 5. Still undecided on this 1. Reminds me of rx7 a bit. Awesome looking ride although my opinion I don't care for rear and wheels. Happy to see your vision complete! Love these cars and thanks for sharing. Well done overall.

  • @christopherward5065
    @christopherward5065 Před 6 lety +1

    The body-shell seemed as rotten as possible. You seemed to need to throw 90% of everything away just to get the form factor. A real Lazarus project. You used it as a blank canvas for an astonishing reimagining of the original 70s sports coupe into a racing car. Amazing work!

    The builders are masters of the best kind....awesome car but would be nice to hear it run...

  • @AutoBodyEverything
    @AutoBodyEverything Před 4 lety

    I bet it took months upon months and I hope it’s very gratifying to drive and have. As clean as the clear coat came out I’m sure it was cut and buffed but when it comes to black, the most I’ll ever do is nib sand but on a job like that I’d let it cure and re-clear it and avoid having to detail a black build like that. I do love the retro/modern builds, I can see the love put into it from a mile away. I would love to collaborate on a build with anyone off CZcams if I had the chance!

    Oh, my - you did very well taking on such a rust bucket and a sweet engine installation (esp' like the split charge cooler)... but the body-kit and wheel/tyre package is very much down to personal preference, to put it politely ;-)

    Nice build. Shame you kinda skipped over the interior as I’d like to see everything installed and your layout etc. That said, I’m starting my 6th Z restomod but will be my first Fairlady (took 3 yrs to find it abroad) and have my hands full. So just doing my build list now. Interesting choices. Curious how tough or easy it was to retro fit the VQ37VHR into a 240z? What about all the extra sensors needed and such (hence me wanting more inside pics) or did you just grab all the wiring from the VQ car where you got the engine from? If it’s a crate motor - can you share where you got it from or if a donor car - which model? I don’t see you replying to others so won’t hold my breath as I can research and find out myself I suppose. But curious too which trans you used and couldn’t tell what you did for the driveshaft and rear? Stock? I’ve seen more driveshafts implode with LS small block conversions as ppl think these are drag cars. z cars are roadsters made for road racing, not the drag strip! so glad to see you keeping this somewhat tame but am sure it hauls ass. 👍🏻 nice job.

  • @adamhampshire568
    @adamhampshire568 Před 6 lety

    Did you do a full media or glass bead blast before you painted or is it just a float coat. I don't doubt you got a lot of rust out but something tells me you didn't get it all. Either way. Beautiful job on the car. Engine swap looks amazing.

  • @davidbarbee1276
    @davidbarbee1276 Před 6 lety +9

    I don't get the haters who will never do anything so awesome.. My friend, the details and mechanicals of your build are fantastic! That the most beautiful, sexy, sick rear end suspension and subframe cradle!!
    What subframe is that? Did that come from a Z? i noticed the absence of the old mustache bar holding the back of the differential? Your body styling is cool, aggressive and you did an amazing job of it. I personally like a more sleeper look, but I totally appreciate the work you've done.. And I really appreciate you sharing with us. A couple of quiestions please, cause i've looked at SPL web site to try to find some of the componenets and cant' find 240z:
    Is that a different subframe? Which car?
    Is the rear suspension kit then also from a different car?
    What diameter wheels?
    Wonder if it would be possible to convert the front macpherson strut to a muti link, or upper and lower set up?
    The variable rate dampners with controller are sick! Also from SPL?
    I love that you went from macpherson strut rear to multi-link uppper and lower...So nice! please some details. I know its expensive, but I'm at a place in life to do it...once anyway.
    Many thanks

    @buddylee19082 Před 6 lety +6

    This build was amazing! My only qualm is that I feel like they killed some of the beauty of the OEM body lines with that rear end; it's just a bit too much for my tastes. Aside from that everything else was tasteful and very well done. Thx for sharing!

    • @AJ-nh8ik
      @AJ-nh8ik Před rokem

      nothing wrong with a fat ass, but my issue was how far those rear wheels stuck out. That's what seemed to throw it off for me. But I definitely understand what you mean.
