Here's my 1972 Datsun 240Z powered by a 1996 Skyline GT-R VSpec RB26DETT. It's spent nearly 4 years as a project and it's nearly done! The car was built to have all the comforts of a modern vehicle with the convenience of modern fuel injection, power windows, power seats, power remote door locks, remote alarm, modern stereo and air conditioning with the timeless classic Z car lines that only an E-Type Jag could hope to inspire.
After nearly 6 months on the rotisserie, the unibody is completely seam welded and painted.
The only way to properly undercoat the body
Every nook and cranny has been taken down to the bare metal, prepped and painted to match the body color
