That incredible. A completely different car. You added 5k in value easy to that car. Keep it looking good.

Re: Here's the Datsun 280Z makeover....

nice job ! But this is not a 280z, it's a 240Z, from 1970 (with the little vents under the rear window)
I have the same...was the exact same color before being repainted in a brighter yellow.

Thanks guys.

Mike, if you would of asked me that 2 months ago, I probably would have said Single Stage.

But now, after the introduction of M105, my favorite would have to be BC/CC. The results from M105 are absolutely outstanding!

We agree, M105 has made working on clearcoats much easier with less work and struggle to get great results.

Still, there's nothing like working on a classic car with classic paint.

What a difference. Great job on that car.

Re: Here's the Datsun 280Z makeover....

Great results Nick...

Given the choice, would you rather work on a clear coated car or a single stage paint system?

Thanks guys.

Process was 83 and a wool pad. Then 80 with a DA, and NXT for the wax. It's not perfect, but a HUGE improvement over it's previous state.
