Nice unit, treat yourself again to some of this, https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00AIYU148?tag=duc12-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1 This stuff is remarkable, lots of shops use nothing else, Meguiar's Ultimate compound is a watered down version of this compound. So where did you get the engine bay tag?

So where did you get the engine bay tag?I already treated myself to some Farecla G3 compound. A professional body shop cutting and polishing compound. The tag was a random find on eBay. It is listed under 240Z engine bay tag but the guy will make it anything you like.

June 26, 20204 yr Author comment_601782 Carpets are in. The fit and finish of the sewn/molded kit for the 280Z is really good. The finished edges on visible ends is great.

July 1, 20204 yr comment_602020 I really admire the extent to which you've persisted, not with the restoration, but the documentation thereof. I've never been able to force myself to stop working, clean my hands, find the phone, and snap a few. My hat's off to you. I especially appreciate your commitment because your car and mine are very nearly identical in condition (when you started), and this thread has already been of great assistance, though I haven't "officially " started quite yet. Saturday will be a great day. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/50908-1976-280z-restoration-project/?&page=273#findComment-602020 Share on other sites More sharing options...
