Hey I think that it looks great. I would want to see close up shots though. And have a good look at the top-is it jsut for show or is it really usable. Heck I'd buy it for 2 grand. Daniel 69 2000 SF

A friend of mine had one of these 2X0 roadsters. He drove his car out to someone in California (San Diego?) who cut the top off, built up the frame, used the top to fabricate a trunk lid and then had

Look up the weight numbers for the hardtop and convertible versions of the same car, sometime. You'll see that the convertible is always heavier. A hardtop is a mechanically efficient way to stiffen

As an enthusiastic Z car guy, the word on Z car roadsters is "Be careful," for exactly the reasons noted below. Removing the roof on a Z unit-body kills half the structural ridgidity. The Z body/chas

Same can be said for a Z V8 conversion. The structure has trouble keeping up with the 6. The torque of a V8 can tear apart a Z in less than 5,000 miles if the conversion doesn't include frame reinfor

Also, wasn't there a recent thread about the 240Z crumbling in the front due to rust and loosing the suspension, because of the unibody design that is very different than our roadster body mounted t
