What's up everyone, I just bought me a 300 twin turbo this last weekend. It's been used, abused, and unloved. She definitely is going to be a project to get back to her amazing self.

How I got her

No front bumper

Paint is a disaster, there were stickers everywhere that were taken off that messed up the paint. It was a disaster.

Sills are covered in rust

AC, cruise control, and all that don't work.

RH door jiggles at high speeds

Everything in the center including the lighter was taken out

A loose shift knob with the engine start button was put on, was never hooked up so the button is just there for no reason

Sometimes while turning left the car dies

 

But other than that the car is wonderful, 40k miles and handles nicely.

Probably gonna be here a lot for advice on repairs.

Excited to be here!

Very unloved looking there, like the wheels though !

40k miles and rust? Kinda doubt the mileage is genuine, saying that, skirts are terrible for holding in the moisture and aiding in the rusting process, but with the seats as they are and the condition of the interior and some other plastics, it's likely to have considerably more mileage on it than 40k; a lot of Z32s have been clocked. Good luck with it all though, glad that bodykit is being removed!

If you can get over to Lincoln I have a rear bumper and bonnet that you are welcome to, that will need far less work than yours!
