Message I had my '93 TT Z since 2/18/2005. I bought the Z with 27,xxx miles on it, but the car needed a lot of TLC since it sat outdoors for years. I really loved it, but I was young at the time and had so many different setups in mind where eventually I felt like the car lost its identity. Swapping different bumpers, fenders, interior, hatches, etc. ineeally sidnt know what i was doing.. I wanted to make a monster track car, so I began buying performance parts and that's where the snowball effect happened. Well if I'm upgrading this, might as well do this too.. I started to realize I didn't know how to recover the exterior any longer since I changed it so many times, and nine of the panels where from the original cause I sold them all.. It had dings and dents all around and some bad rust in the rear lower quarter panels and was involved in an accident from the previous owner.
I decided to get a clean, rust free/ accident free shell and swap all the performance parts over

I wanted to give a big thanks to TZAM for going out of his way to inspect the Z for me since it was in NC. When I offered to PayPal him money for gas and his time, he replied with "no it's alright, us tt.net guys gotta help each other out."

Thanks to Bernie for answering all my random questions.

And last thanks is to Not4Sale (Ironically that's his s/n here or in 3ZC)... He delivered the car to me today and I didn't have to worry about renting a truck or a tractor, or getting the car insured, registered and towed.. He cleaned it all up. Can't wait to finish my home improvement projects so I can get her in the garage and start swapping all the performance parts from my white Z into this Z. Contemplating on getting the shell painted charcoal gray.

Well here she is

I'll part out the left over pieces, so keep an eye out for that. Thanks for reading guys.
