Parts Parts Gimmie parts parts!

[Andrea]

I haven't actually every posted before, but I would like to tell the
ones that usually do, thank you for all of the information and
occasional humor!
I am ready to start looking for some parts, and soon will be having
alot of questions.
I am in need of a front bumper and brackets, can anyone lead me in the
right direction?
I also have some questions about a gas tank and possibly repairing a
gas tank, mine has about 20 pin hole leaks in it. Does anyone suggest
getting a bladder put in it? I have never personally done that w/ a gas
tank and I don't know if it is efficient....

Ask away!
First things first, is your car a z600 or a n600?
I have a spare n600 front bumper, but it is in need of being straightened
and rechromed. Considering this you might be better off getting the part
from Tim Mings, as rechroming usually costs in the area of $200-300.
You might want to consider getting a different gas tank instead of fixing
yours. There have been a few on ebay lately, and I'm also sure that you can
get one from Tim Mings or Mike O'Connor. They make an epoxy for holes in
gastanks and mufflers, but if you have 20 of them I'd just suggest getting a
new one, as that many holes probably means that you have rust issues.

I'm sorry I didn't specify that, its a Z
I have someone that will rechromes and powder coats parts.
You are correct I do have a little bit of a rust issue, I actually traded a guy a TV for the car, it hasn't been shown alot of love, and some really stupid things have been done to it.  I am going to have to put a whole new floor in the vehicle, and rockers, someone also cut the roof and put some stupid like camper moon roof in it. and then! they also put little vent bubble windows on the sides where the round coupe emblem belongs, the front bumber that was on it when I got it is wood..heh  and AND it was infested w/ mice and some of the interior is shot.
I definitly have my work cut out for me, but I love the car and really want to be able to drive it someday...
I can send some pictures really soon, I have the vehicle in storage over the winter but I will be gettting it out real soon..
my other email address that I check more often is aminks@...
Thank you for responding so quickly, and I hope to be able to talk to you again real soon, and pick your brain. :)
Thanks Again

Andrea,
Looks like a Z bumper just went on ebay.
