    OK, FRAME RAIL ROT. Check the bottom of the front frame rails in the engine compartment. I had a 240Z around 74. and they rotted out on me and I had to get rid of the car. The inline 6 is a fast and strong motor. See what carb/carbs it has. I swapped out the singles for a holley 4 barrel. The thing really moved. They can be really nice once restored.

    well, turns out it was a datsun 280z 2+2, four seater. the rust was minimul on the frail, the engine ran great, shifted beautifully, and threw me in my seat, so i got her. it needs new paint, so im going to work on that first. the story was that it was in a guys garage for 15 years before being sold to the seller. it only had 3,500 miles on it 1998 as records show, but the last owner ran the miles up to 100,000. the bottom of the seats need to be reupolstered too. i will sure have fun with it though! thanks for all the advice!
