/\ That’s a clean car. Squirrelly as hell, I love it. I really want to see the underside shots. Where are the typical rot spots on the car aside from the toeboards? This car in white would be a neck snapper. ---

typical spots are floor pants, frame rails, battery tray area, rear hatch area, spare tire well. and i guess rockers too ---

I’m climbing under it in the AM. Going to pull the interior apart, like I said I know the floorboards are gone but dont know how much else is (it was supposedly only driven for 4 months up here in NY and was originally a california car). Front frame rails tend to rot out, along with the spare tire well, rockers, 1/4 panels, inner fender wells and mid frame rails. I know mine doesnt have most of that damage though. I’m pretty much debating between white and Lambo Verde Ithaca (with a small shot in hell for Inca Orange). ![http://zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/904white280z.jpg](http://zhome.com/History/ZColorGallary/904white280z.jpg) ![http://images.motortrend.com/classic/roadtests/c12_0612_01l+1972_bmw_2002_tii+front_view.jpg](http://images.motortrend.com/classic/roadtests/c12_0612_01l+1972_bmw_2002_tii+front_view.jpg) ![http://image.kurumaerabi.com/image/00/13/4f/00134F76.jpg](http://image.kurumaerabi.com/image/00/13/4f/00134F76.jpg) [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/jumped-head-first-into-the-deep-end-at-the-jdm-kiddie-pool/38822.md?page=2) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/jumped-head-first-into-the-deep-end-at-the-jdm-kiddie-pool/38822.md?page=4)
