From the same trip - a sad rusting Datsun Z

Worth restoring. All succeeding iterations were an attempt to keep the same performance as pollution controls were added to comply with new environmental regulations. I think the thing that makes the 240Z so rare is that they catastrophically rusted away - not many have survived.

my next door neighbor has one that has been sitting in his garage for the las 20+ years just collecting dust and rat turds. it's actually in pretty good shape. he wont get rid of it because it belonged to his mother and she's still alive.

Not a real surprise, but it still (mostly) looks the same as it did in 2017... truly a place where time stands still

From a studio shoot done on the 6th of September in my studio - had seen a pic of the car and asked the owner If he would bring it by for a session.... Shot with a G9, HighRes mode. Most of the colors added on set were done with new RGBW LED fixtures that allow for dialing in the exact color you want (as opposed to gels).

I just broke a couple of Commandments.

Cheers, Jock

Sure, but no cobwebs, flat tires or oil leaks, someone is enjoying it, which is a good thing
