Thanks. Green one is in the process of being stripped and junked. Such a shame. I've owned that car since I was 16. I'm 30 now... Car was perfect, then stolen by a friend and stripped of all my parts and engine and etc. sad sad sad. Blue z is my budget build... Much like my garage.

Ya I might. When I start working on it again. So sat down with a buddy and did some math. I looked over everything in this garage and I honestly only have maybe $150 bucks. Everything was pretty much free or other peoples junk. Pretty crazy.

Cool, another Z owner on here. Wish mine was getting that body work treatment.

That's the miata 1.8 for the Exocet that you see. The Z has a 82 280zx L28ET. I made a custom turbo setup that mounts in front of the motor, kinda like old Grand nationals. The exhaust exits thru the front air dam. turbo is off a big Cummins Diesel and it's running a standalone ecu. I honestly...

Thanks. It's running pretty good now. I just need to get it legal.

That's my clean room... Where I redid my 8v head and worked on my old bugs motor. I forgot to add a pic or 2 of the other work bench area with my old lathe and oven and so on.

i forgot i made this thread, heres a few updates. A lot has changed. I first did this, as i had a couch in the garage, with a big screen tv and full home theater setup. it was like this for 2 years maybe more, but i ran out of space. Adding another car to the collection and more...

I'll throw up some pics of the house and exterior today after work. From the street you can't tell how big it is.

Had to post to say I love the floor!

ya they are still there. bought parts from them years back when i had my 300zx.

I'm close to the Tampa area.

The Miller is mine, the Hobart is my friends. I don't care for it, but I weld for a living. He builds some nice things with it, but it just doesn't have the range like a miller does. It's a 110 though. I think he paid $200 for it so it's deff a steal but then again he had to upgrade the...

beer.... i like where this is going.

I have 5 right now but I've owned over 20 at one time before :D. I'll never be like that again. I only have my bug parked outside right now so i have nothing to worry about. I can fit about 6 cars inside the garage if need be though. I was about to pick up a old 70's vw rabbit but had to...

I gotta make jigs and etc to build about 5 more of these cars so it'll be awhile. Pipe bender came in and a few other things. Gotta pick up the mazda mx5's too. Building tube frame cars aren't very easy as I'm finding out lol.
