For you all who remember and for those who love classics, I just picked up my 'Zeus' (1976 2002) from paint. Had it repainted factory Inka Orange because of acid damage. Also had some body work done so it's mostly flawless now! Has 98% all BRAND NEW moldings, and new chrome mirrors.

These pictures were taken when the car (except the hood) needed buffing and finishing touches, etc. done. It's sitting at my work now, waiting on a new air cleaner, maybe some new dual-weber carbs (x-mas - freakin like $1200)?? and a tune-up. Going to get some new drums and have them and the front calipers painted orange (for free), and possibly do some steel-braided lines.

I'll get some new pictures up very soon!

Very very nice! I love the 2002's. I like the color too. I have always loved Panasport wheels. I almost bought some for my 240z (different style though). To this day I wished I had.... useful...

It's modded a little already...

- Springs & Suspension (not sure on brand, prob. eibach)
- 14" Panasports
- Full Ansa exhaust (of course no cat.)
- Two Recaro racing seats (recently reupholstered - with the back seats - in two-tone leather)
- MOMO steering wheel
- Alpina horn < sounds like a Ferarri [:)]
- Getrag 235/5 (close ratio 5 speed homologated for touring car racing in the late 60's to early 70's) Transmission - from factory 4-speed

Still only has around 100 hp (98 stock), assuming the air cleaner is dirty as crap - going to get a new one soon - and the exhaust adds a few horses.

Paint was $1900. Had a buddy of mine do it, he also painted the blue MR2 in 2F2F.
Additional costs were $500 for paint & supplies, $1200 for all new moldings and mirrors. Came out to a little over $3000 for all of it.
