Another amazing junkyard find
Tuesday, February 10, 2009 8:49 PM
So me and my buddy were in the junk yard today (Mikes Auto on Mud Street in Hamilton)
and we found a pretty heavily modified white z that was almost completely gutted.

We went around to the back and found a trunk lid with shaved spoiler and key hole.

I picked it up for 60 bucks plus tax!!!

Im pumped to get it painted and on in the spring!!!

So does anyone know whos cav it was or will the previous owner please stand up?

a shaved trunklid...

maybe you have never been to a scrap yard before but things like that are hard to find in good shape...

And Brad it was a stock z24 kit on it, it was white, lowered, clear corners, tint, tan interior

Heres some pics as well





Theres a little chip in the bottom right side but thats the only damage to the hood



As you can see the previous owners car was green and he painted it white



Absolutely no rust whatsoever... Awesome shape!



It was a pretty decent find if i should say so and i cant wait to paint it black and get it on...

I wonder what scrap yard my car was taken too, It still had the B & M short shifter, front Eibach sway bar, pro-kit springs, upper and lower RSM engine mounts still on it.

That and I got the trunklid when I bought the black Z. I sold that trunklid to Jordan a couple months ago.

Why do I think that was Bodnar's? His car was green. His trunk lid was shaved.... he painted his car white....

Sounds like it's adding up...
