the hole's for a carbon fibre roof yeah? or are you going to go for a transparent material? has the bit you've cut out held its shape, in terms of getting the curvature correct to mold off?

either way its looking nice

oh man, what an amazing restoration. I must say, at first I was skeptical about the videos. I mean how good could they possibly be...boy was I wrong. I'm addicted, I need more!

I now have two choices of flares available. Approx. 60mm and 100mm.

Something like that... : )

The mold won't be made from my roof, but that of another Z.

I personally like the smaller flares.

I'm pretty confident the bigger ones will turn out nice.

Darensteel.com made these flares for a R33 Skyline. Looked pretty absurd when in place.

Bulky as hell, if you would've asked me back then.

But once painted, etc - it's totally svung around. Looks sweet!

As long as you don't use those wheels, I don't care which flares you use!

It is coming along very, very nicely. Keep it up!

Mull, I just registered this website simply to talk to you. Someone linked me to these videos, and I just finished watching them all. Let me say, your work is very inspiring and fun to watch, and it makes me happy to see so much work go into a Z. Your car would have been scrapped without a second thought here in the US, due to all that rust, but you didn't really have the option to get another one. Kudos for sticking with that seemingly impossible task.

I see you still have a long ways to go on the car, but there's no turning back now. I wish you much luck and prosperity on getting your car finished, and I anxiously await updates and pictures. You will definitely have one of the nicest 240Z's on the planet. LaterZ.
