Wow , good job fellas on the pics...That volvo 1800 is a slick looking ride, one of my friends that was a chick drove a white one like that back in the day. Unfortunetely she let her boy friend drive it and he smacked it into a tree. Loser.....

Great pics on the 240's, those are beautiful, the old school Supra are pretty cool too, don't see many of those around anymore.

The 2000 GT is gorgeous in its own rights, so timeless, even in the 21st century it just stands out as a beautiful lady.

It was typically known as a "shark" or P1800 "shark" Working on many a Volvo 1800 in my time, had a really cool felt seal on the crankshaft. Was fun to change out, oh and the twin SU carbs had to be sych'd alot.

I advise against the old Z cars. The first three cars I owned were a '77 280Z, '78 280Z 2+2, and '80 280ZX. Though they were fun to drive when they ran, the problem was keeping them running. All of them had electrical problems. I finally gave up and bought a '83 Mustang GT which was more reliable. A friend at the time had a '85 300ZX; it had electrical problems too.

OMg this Family Mart is close to where i lived. its about 5mins walk from my house
as for the rims, i dont like when they use modern rims on old school cars. he should of used Watanabe's, Hayashi's or XR 4on those like the other olds school car that pdhaxk posted.

Pretty Z, but I despise stretched tires. I don't think I'll change my opinion on them.

Chad,

Did Ferrari rip off Jaguar or vice versa Did either of them rip off the Corvette? What about MG, Maserati, Fiat and other cars of that time with similar headlights?

BTW I am a early Z homer so don't be hatin
