Hi all,

I'm looking for something that will require some work, but preferably not immense amounts of rust. Not having much luck lately.

That being said, I'm open to any suggestions, recommendations etc.

Thanks!

Filipe

That's the spirit Frank. I'm going to need to keep busy somehow this summer, cuz no man can work all the time!

BTW Frank: I think that Z I spoke to you about is falling through. Looks like the owner did some serious false advertising as far as rust and paint condition. Do still plan to look at it though.

Well, the only Z which has "NO RUST" is one which just came off the restoration rotisserie.
As Bob Sharp is fond of saying, "metallurgy was never their strong point".

I have seen that you're looking through craigslist. I am not sure if this is helpful, but when I browse craigslist, I find it extremely cumbersome to go to each city/region's individual craigslist to find stuff.

I have since found : http://www.searchtempest.com/ which just lets me browse all craigslists and sort them by distance from my zip code.

I have been browsing craigslist for a Z since last summer.... let me tell you, a lot of Z31's show up (and even a good number of S130's) every now and then. I am sure you will be able to find the right one!

Frank,

It's rust that would require new sheet metal from what I understand. Way out of my league, for now at least.



JTANG THANK YOU SO MUCH! It is indeed annoying.
