Not many people are going to take a restoration to that level. I guess the one question on most everyones mind is going to be how long did it take you to re-assemble it? Simple to take one apart, but to put it back together from a bare shell takes a lot of time and patience.

I guess you get the award for taking a resto to the "nth" degree, especially after seeing all the nuts, bolts, and washers re-plated.

Job well done!

It was December 1997, I rang up a friend of my and asked him “will you assist me in dismantling my Z car”?

In two days we had the car completely in parts.

Somewhere in April ‘98 the car went in the oven and after that right through to the painter. That took a while. But it was‘t my concern because I had other this to do, we moved to another city!!

I got the car back in may ’99 and in July last year (’01), her maiden trip was to the Japanese Extravaganza meeting in the UK.

I’m still busy with the car. Now we are making the rosettes (?), I need big mud flaps and a jack-up thing in the middle of the car, triple carbs, a roll bar, etc., etc.
