Pests 1977 260Z 2+2

I've had my 260 since 2004, until recently I've made very few changes to it besides simple repairs and cleanup work, but I'm hoping to do more on it soon so I thought I'd stat a build thread to cover what I've done so far and future improvements.

Here's the car as I first saw it, for sale at the Kumeu Hot Rod show in 2004:

Here's how she looked when I got her home:

Here's my end goal that I photoshopped up:

First things first, strip down, clean out:

New wheels in 2008:

Had the diff out so decided to make ir purdy:

I'd had this wing and front spoiler for a while (at least a few years) but finally got around to fitting them:

And here's it back from Hauraki Panel and Paint (thanks Bernie and the boys!!), getting closer to my dream:

Finally, here she is at the concourse this morning:

Next up, new suspension to get her stance right, then fix the gearbox and more work on the RB30 I'm building for her.
