hello this is my 87 300zx sf n/s 5spd. bought it for $400 had been ran into the ditch by a drunk driver and who ever towed out just put an inspection sticker on it(thanks to him). when i got it i went to start it and starter clicked and thats it. so packed up and went in, 2 hours later my parents came in and sead my car was on fire went and checked and smoke was pooring out from under the hood. lifted the hood and disconected the battery and it stoped. starter fried. but got it fired up some time later started up right away after 2 years of sitting in a back yard.
so i am fixing it up so far going to set it up for the track for autox or road tracks. i have replaced the dash pulled off damaged fenders, put my lsd diff out of my turbo parts car and put in the new rear springs in (whiteline performance) front at later time. next thing is to get frame pulled and get the car inspected and put in my turbo engine after i do some work to it.

here are some pics.

tan. bit if you have a red int ill give you mine and take the tan ones i dont really care about int comour alreadt black and red.

Well the inside of my car is the "grey and silver" combo which really looks more like beige and brown if you ask me. If you ever come across SF door skins in that color and they're in good shape, definitely let me know.

i like the manual stuff better as well....its less weight. :]

ya thats why its going to make a good car for the track for me when ever i get the frame pulled.

here are the pics of the door panels finally got them all together and got rid of the mold. sorry its a little messy its also my storage unit for other parts since my dad wont let any upstairs in the shop.

Nice progress. I love those door skins. Less unneeded electrical crap.

a lot less weight for racing. when you turn the key to unlock it, it turns with no effort and a clunk since there is nothing else for it to move.

got the car back from the bodyshop and started to work on her right away to get the ac stuff out and finish up body work. oh got the frame pulled.
before and after pics









removing all the bent riped sheet metal to be replaced.

Nice work.
