red you are on the hybridz forum. if you have the money restore her. get the chassi done. ive seen what these guys have gone to restore them. but it really comes down to what you want. id say fix it and make a beast.

Either way it's not like you can just go to the Z store and buy another Z car... those things are rare gems in our area (north east us) rust seems to demolish most cars inside 15 years... if they last longer than that it's a miracle.

Personally, there are only 2 Z cars that I would go out of my way to own and the 280 isn't one of them. If I was going for old school I'd import an old school imported Datsun.

Huh? WTF, am I the only person that caught this? Dude the 260z has the exact same roofline as the 240z and as the 280z (non 2+2) has. They are all S30' chassis. They just get heavier as the years go on due to federal crash safetly standards and bigger bumpers.
Please learn your cars before commenting like this and you won't look like an idiot.
