Well, it was time for my parts cars life to end. It WAS a '87 T2. Bent frame rails, nig rigged wiring, and patch panels; it wasn't worth keeping. I couldn't even sell it as a complete rolling shell with full interior for $350, so I parted it out and made almost 4 times what I was selling it for, and still have a basement FULL of parts.

Here are the pics of it on it's last leg.





My cousin being stupid


Cut my leg open on the roof, ****** was sharp!


WINNAR IS ME!

 

you need a haircut bro

 

That looks pretty trailer, yo.

 

you guys have that much time to mess around?, why not just junk it?

 

Trailer?? That's the florida room on the back of my house, lol.

And I have 2 7's back there, my good T2 which is getting built up and this parts car that was getting stripped.

 

Tripod.

 

They're cell phone pictures

 

Find that battery tray

I KEED!

 

Haha I got to go through all my parts, I'm working on it! I have too much ****

 

nice afro

 

Should have just scrapped it or tucked it away in the corner of the yard.

 

you selling any parts off it?

 

I have a whole part out thread in the FC for sale section. Just search my username for threads I've made.

 

reminds me when i got my friend soo hyped into oldschool datsun Zs, he goes and buys the first cheap Z he can find on ebay $800 280z shell .. picks it up and in the morning we realize its a rustbucket not worth restoring.. way too rusty holes everywhere.. so we just took eveyrhting we could and the 3 of us flipped it over to remove the suspension lmao

i think the next day his dad cut the car up and the scrapped it
he got some money tho from selling teh good parts from it *that bottom skid plate was worth $$$$$ in its condition since they are hard to find*

 

^^^ your friend is an idiot for doing that to a z. trust me when i say, they can be brought back, but no kid could comprehend the level it would take.
anyways, reminds me of the 3 cars ive done that too so far. i love chopping the roof, its so much fun.

this thing was really bad
cancer everywhere (holes everywhere)
and it was a 280z lol..

if it was a 70 240z it would have been a different story.

 

Yeah, it would have been even rustier.

I miss my Z car sometimes ('71 transition model) till I remember that I haven't had to replace the propshaft u-joints on my 7 lately and come to my senses.
I do miss the torque though.

 

I took my 87 shell to a scrapyard and got $25.

 

Most wouldent even know it was a 7 without the logo on the back.

 

dammm that thing is done.

 

Got a dash? I'll buy.

 

thats definatly a S30(240Z-260Z), not a S130(280Z) trust me here i love me some z

 

s30 - 240z-280z. s130 is zx

still 280z rustbucket not worth it.. my friend was like 19-20 so at the time, hard to stay focused on a major restoration project

 

I think I see a fender well you could've saved ... maybe not

 

i know the feeling im 19 and i have a 74 trumph TR-7 waiting on restomod. i used to have a 70 914 but again needed resto and got the 7 instead.
