77 280z

hey i have a77 280 we are restoring at my work and im trying to find things like front euro bumpers and stuff and having a hard time. if anyone has pics and maybee some info on where to get them or how you made yours or body kits you know all those things would help. i am also looking for some wheel spacers and some longer studs. none of the tire shops around here know where to get these things so if anyone could help i would apreciate it.

Re: 77 280z

thezstore.com will carry most of what you need although I've never heard of a euro-spec bumper for a Z unless you mean the smaller bumpers used on the 240z in which case they do carry those.

Re: 77 280z

unless you want massive driveability issues and an unsafe ride, don't even think about doing longer studs and spacers... get yourself some quality adaptors instead
