It's been reanimated! In the '80s, I worked at a small college, and one of the professor's son had a 260...he painted it the school colors ( purple and white). Sounds kind of heinous, but it looked better than it sounds. Another successful reanimation!

my cousin had a 260Z. it was black with gold pin stripping, two tone tan interior, and chrome rims with black and gold accents. beautiful car, fun to ride in. he totaled it when he rolled it in a street race.

Nice job. You are quite the body shop man. In the US the 260z was a one year model for 1974. Almost bought a dark green one with brown interior that was sitting in the showroom of the dealer. I was having my 710 serviced and I spent a lot of time mulling it over. Never cared for the 2+2 version as it was awkward appearing compared to the coupe.
