You are at the top of my list

Sounds like 1/48. I went through a phase and built about 20 1/48 scale plane -- including a B-1 that is about 2 1/2 feet long.

It's still tight but at least I can stand upright now. I'll get Mini GaleForce to walk on it later. He'd love that.

Quit being old!

In all seriousness, hope you get back to feeling better sir.

Gale Force.. Thank you...

No 4 Link... I went with Speed Tech Tubular A-Arms in front, and QA-1 Coil overs, and Hotchkis Bar and Steering Parts and a quick ratio steering Box and pump.

In the rear I used Vari Shocks, Hotchkis Leaf Springs and Sway Bar and Sub Frame connectors..

Yes, The Stance is everything.... Also I went with 18"x 8.5 front and 19"x 10 rear Rims..

It took talking to the Builder, Jason at Rushforth, and myself to get the stance right.. Glad I went with the 18, and 19 combo...I love it..

And we set the alignment for one thing...Cornering..It sticks like glue..All throttle controlled.. My Brain is the only Computer..

All new underneath. Chassis Bushings, Motor Mounts, ect.. Monster 4 wheel Disc Brakes, Fuel, ect.. Rear Gears...Exhaust..Engine parts.. MSD complete system. Aluminum Radiator and Water Pump, K and N extreme

The Wife just got back in the 370Z ..She loves it...Who wouldn't ?

Very nicely done. I've been around these cars (and older) all my life. I just love it when I see someone build one the right way.

Thanks Man..

Yes, I found the best Builder around to help me.. This Car has been in my Family for almost 30 years and I just had to upgrade it..I bought it in 1983. Built the engine and painted it in 1985.

It is a Number's matching True Van Nuys,Ca, Z/28.. Factory Corvette LT-1, and Close ratio M-21. Engine and transmission has 20K miles on it.

I did not want to do a factory Restoration..Boring...

The value is still the same...But the fun factor is through the roof..Next is Interior, and then more Power someday. With all the new cars, I need to step up my game. 420HP is not enough anymore, haha..

Rather than sell it and the 350Z and buy some Exotic Car, I thought that redoing it the right way and buying the 370Z was the way to go..

The 370Z will stay stock because it is the Wife's car..Otherwise, I would go crazy on it too.. Someday I will put Pilot SS Tires, and maybe an Oil Cooler, and when it needs rotors and brakes, I will upgrade then, but only when it needs parts. My wife won't let me spend more money until something is worn out...

This other picture is from 1985 with the Goodyear Gatorback 15" "Truck" Tires.. Sitting way too high..But it was 1985... But the rims look so tiny..

Now it has the modern look.

Primitive but a load of old school fun..

But you need a new technology car too.. The 370Z Sport/Touring is a great add to my stable..

Yah, that always makes me feel good until I'm told to spread it around...or "sorry, but you're too generous and will need to come back in 24 hours".
