Hello! ....and should I buy this one?
Pencil replied to Pencil's topic in Introductions & Welcome Messages
Thanks Andy.... you're right, they're 20 years old so there's going to be some rust. I don't think this one looks too bad, but having lost my FTO to the tin worm I thought it worth checking. Do you know what the part in the image attached to the original post is? That's obviously more than surface rust, but if it's a non-structural part I'm not too worried about it. The car looks good otherwise -

Hi and welcome along. You will do very well to find an old car without rust as you probably very well know. Some suffer from rot and some suffer from surface rust as you said. Most are fixable. This looks like surface rust and most of the consumable parts are replaceable. Good luck in your search. -

Hello all. I've been hankering after a 350z for ages. My dearly beloved FTO which I had for 15 years recently exited this earthly realm due to the dreaded rot, so I've been looking for a Z as a replacement. Been offered one approx. £5K, it's on 70K miles. It's quite a distance from me so I wanted to ask you fine people what you think of the underside - owner has sent me a video, which I've shared here via YouTube: It looks like surface rust (?) apart from the ARBs which don't look great (might just be a wire brush and lanoguard job though) and this bit (attached image) which is a bit more worrying. I'm not sure what/where that is though. Is it a concern, or perhaps just a heat shield or something (forgive my ignorance, I got to know the FTO intimately but I'm new to these...)? The arches look OK. Any opinions gratefully received Tim (Kent)

370 more comfortable for me but not as controllable as the 350. Despite more rear end grip on 370.

That should work fine, however, I have plenty in stock if you wish to replace it. Just drop me a message. In stock and good to go same/next day. Lower sump pans are also in stock.

Personally I would replace it for peace of mind, buy a used one on eBay £35 job done

I did the stupid thing where the jack slipped and hit the sump. Pan is damaged and I have a new one - but my new oil pickup strainer is still on order from Torquen. Decided to take the lower pan off anyway and the strainer tube itself is fine, only a wee ding in the shell at the top (see attached photos). Does anyone have any opinions on if this is too much damage?
