Machine dreams of a past life

The owner of this car engines dreamed since childhood. And he knew that his first car would be special.

The owner of this car engines dreamed since childhood. He knew all brands and models, his room was hung with posters, especially exotic cars.

And he knew that he was the first car to be special, as if specially made for it. In 1996, the car was not the fastest, coolest and innovative, but Jordan Sverdloffa it did not matter. It was a Datsun 280ZX Turbo 1983. Originally it belonged to the grandmother of Jordan, she bought it new in the year of its release. After that, he spent 13 years in a garage in its original form. It was not a trace of rust, he stood with a full tank, growling like new. The most amazing thing, but my grandmother bought it even with the top-line 6-cylinder engine of 2.8 liters. With the turbine and the 3-speed automatic.


Since then, Jordan was the owner of more than 25 cars. He went to all kinds of vehicles — jeeps, minivans, exotic, standard machines, and even converted almost gone to the scrap vehicles. But nothing inspired him as it did the first car. Unfortunately, when Jordan was 18 years old, he was no money in the state of Georgia and had to equip himself and his friend's bedroom in the car. After two months of such a life, he sold the car to buy tickets and go home.
In any case, since Jordan wanted to find my old ZX, but never to devote to this effort. He always wanted to bring the car to its original condition, remove the rear seats and side panel, making the car a two-seater. The most important thing for him was to establish L28 engine with 500 horsepower and a large turbine can be an additional injector and large plastic spoiler in the form of the letter T from the Pep Boys... All of this would allow him to feel the owner of the car street racing party of the second half 90 th years.


Since then, more than 10 years. Jordan accepted that he did not return it ZX, but one day the car was in the blue walls service center, where he worked, and Sverdloff could not refuse it.


He took up the most difficult and exciting project for him, who gave him a real sense of nostalgia. It was the best gift and a milestone in his life.

Below is a list of improvements that were made to the car. The fact that he managed to squeeze out will demonstrate photos and videos. A year later, he created the car of your dreams with their own hands.
