Bens Datsun 260z
« on: March 20, 2010, 07:18:12 PM »
Well after owning two 2+2's in the past i was addicted...bitten by the infectious z bug.

Finally the opportunity came up to purchase a 76 260z 2 seater, since the beginning i wanted a two seater but just couldn't find one for the right price!! So TODAY i went to go get it.

To my amazement it started thanks to some new fuel and some aerostart and after 10 mins of cranking it finally came to life

So now its sitting at home nice and cosy and soon will be in some shelter!!! Big thanks to Mayhem aswell for giving me a hand today!!

Here are some pics and a quick video from today!!

Stay tuned for more updates after easter!!!

Ben ;D ;D ;D

Nice color combo, red with white interior, some work ahead of you but well worth it. You staying auto or going to manual?
