Guess what I saw @ Goodies
I was there last week and the famous "Darius 240Z" was there waiting for some dyno tuning.
The thing has gotten absolutely insane since its famous ~2000 video

240z
I hate this thread.
I had a chance to purchase a real 240 Z Scrab conversion in the late 1998 or so for 8,000.00. Nice car with a built 350, full leather interior, roll bar and Nitrous. The car was owned by a local doctor and he auto X it and was really a nice car and well sorted.
I was looking at several cars aslo a 1964 356 Porsche and a 1972 Lotus. I looked at the Z on Friday night along with the Black 356 and made up my mind on the 356. Got up early on Sat and went to purchase the 356 but it sold one hour before I at got there 10:00Am I went back to buy the 240z and a guy in Oregon purchased it at 11:00am.
Talk about no luck.

My buddy Justin Samberg did alot of the work on Darius's car. His shop is called Samberg rod and custom fabrication and is out of Benica CA. He has done some work on my Chevelle.
He is a good guy, here is a link to some of his other work.
