I want to personally welcome you all to comment and bid!\n\nWhat you see here is the result of one man's vision to build his ultimate, ultra-modified 260Z. When the car was purchased in 1999, it was a bone stock and rust-free example that was the perfect baseline for a build. The car was completely disassembled, stripped, and virtually every component was refurbished. I would urge all interested parties to take a close look at the underside of this car (suspension/brakes/floor pans/etc.) as it is in phenomenal condition. The engine swap was done to an extremely high level - it looks like it belongs. We have included an overview of the modifications that were made to accommodate the V8 swap from the cooling system to the brakes, suspension, etc. Beyond the mechanical side of things, the paint and body on this car is absolutely phenomenal. The panel gaps are tight and consistent and the overall finish of the paint is nearly flawless which is a term that I do not throw around lightly. There are a ton of hours in this build and it shows, as evidenced by its first place award for Ultra Modified 260Z at the 23rd Z Car Convention in Nashville, TN in 2010. Today, nearly 15-years later the car still presents incredibly well which is a true testament to the quality of the work that was performed. Unfortunately, the owner is focused on downsizing his collection which is the sole motivation for sale. As a result, I am thrilled to be offering it on his behalf and look forward to interacting with you all throughout the process.\n\nOne quick note: We have gotten pummeled this week with rain in the Southeast which has made creating a driving video difficult. The weather is looking good for the next few days so I will be adding one to the listing ASAP.\n\nI\u2019ll be here for the duration to answer any questions and encourage conversation. As a reminder, I always suggest any seriously interested parties reach out to me directly via the \u201cContact Seller\u201d button with their contact info. I\u2019m happy to jump on a phone call or FaceTime to answer any questions directly and in painful detail as it is very easy to get in the weeds in the comments section.
