those 280zx are awesome. prob the only "ole" car id ever fix up.

[Ronaldo95163]

^Those are the 240Zs...280ZXs are meh imo...The 240Z looks way more beautiful
I've read that the 280ZXs are way more rigid compared to the 240Zs and wouldn't require as much work in reinforcements as the 240Z would.

Been following this amazing Build:

If you can find a good example i.e original bits and pieces still intact like taillights rear quarter bumpers, chrome trim etc, anywhere from 10k to 20k, again depending on condition. You can get some really horrendous ones like the one above for 5k give or take a few.

@MG Man

The RS series was the product of the newly established AVO (Advanced Vehicle Operation) by UK Ford. Apparently, its mission was mainly in motorsport, especially rallying, otherwise it would not have named RS, or Rallye Sport. The forerunner of the Escort RS was Escort Twin Cam, a car powered by Lotus' 1558cc twin-cam engine (as used in Ford Lotus Cortina). 109 horsepower transformed the little car into a fireball. The race car also brought Ford 2 straight world rallying championship titles in 1968 and 1969.
