240dkw Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share #63 Posted May 11, 2013 Well, very excited the car got picked up today. Now to clean out the garage, organize all the parts I have tucked away and wait for it to come back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240260280z Posted May 12, 2013 Share #64 Posted May 12, 2013 Smooth looking,Spend some time on the front lower cowl center piece to make it parallel with the ground. It is worth it. On the 71 I restored it was the most challenging part. The grill really shows any ripples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpilati Posted May 21, 2013 Share #65 Posted May 21, 2013 They should have built Z's out of stainless steel. Didn't they realize they were building the greatest car on the planet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zKars Posted July 3, 2013 Share #70 Posted July 3, 2013 The shear beauty of these things stripped bare still takes my breath away. Alone, vunerable, calling for attention.... Hang on, I might need to take a moment here... Excuse me........ok.... I'm fine. Carry on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroDat Posted July 3, 2013 Share #71 Posted July 3, 2013 Dan. This thread is a great read and a tribute to the awesome work you are doing. The contrast between what it was in post #1 and now with the primer in post #69 is just awesome.Cheers chas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-tek Posted July 15, 2013 Share #72 Posted July 15, 2013 That is AWESOME to see how much good, unfilled, metal you have on you car! You should blow that photo up to poster size and frame it for your garage. The race to finish is still on Dan - but you having it at a shop is giving you an edge - although NOW I'm REALLY motivated!!! Think we're still on-target to meet up (with our Zeds) in Lloyd next summer??! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
