Hey guys I just bought this old girl 1978 351 zh fairlane, runs straight gas, plus side cheaper to run, down side she is slowww don't know what I intend doing with it, never really liked this shape of fairlane but instantly fell in love with this and rushed out and bought it paint is pretty decent, shame the engine bay is red though, odometer only reads 126,000 km but unsure if I believe that, it all works though. Interior is fairly tidy, door cards, seats and roof lining really good condition for there age no real signs of wear and no rips or stitching coming apart. Carpet is a little crappy, but tidy not a huge fan of carpet being dark blue either, has 3 cracks in the dashboard, needs tint redone and one wheel rechromed, don't know if I should spent in excess of $1000 for another decent looking set or just rechrome the one crappy looking one, don't mind the wheels on it. A few bits and pieces tidied up here and there and she will be mint, bit of an old mans car but I really like it, kind of tough looking, what do you guys think?

    Hey mate do you wish to sell it? I'm new on this site and just found your car. Do you still have it?
    I'm looking to restore one looks like a good project. Cheers

    Hi MJ089, I've just found and bought my Grandfathers ZH, he took me to pick it up from the dealer in Jan 1978. I really like the way yours sits and the size of the wheels and tyres can you tell me (if you still have it) what size the wheels and tyres are?
