240ZBUILTBYME Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share #291 Posted March 20, 2023 Its been a while since I've posted, I've been very slack on all platforms lately During the black friday sales I picked up a few goodies as i do each year got some new rear tail lights and OEM rubber seals, beautiful units. I recently got a new job based in Perth so no more Fly in FLy out! So i bought myself a present to celebrate. A few things from the lonely drivers club catalogue, have long been a fan of his work. Pedal covers, engine blank plates, door pulls, plug wire holders Also picked up the vintage connections 240z kit for when i refurb my wiring harness, probably not the most cost effective way to buy them but definitely the most convenient! got a shrinker stretcher for when the metal work starts 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240ZBUILTBYME Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share #292 Posted March 20, 2023 My car has been booked into the blasters for 6 months now I was supposed to get a few things done before sending it off, however my son recently started Kindy and the hours are much less conducive to working on the car. Resulting in me not quite finishing what I wanted to before it left. Castor wheels were installed LHS rear quarter was removed If you recall i had trouble finding the spot welds on the window sill, i didnt have any success in unccovering them so i cut around the area i knew they were and ill have to patch it later. I would like to get some new quarter panels from KFVJDM but the shipping to get it to Australia is extortion. I have heard fit is not the best as well. Some rust I didnt know about hiding behind the rear wheel well I ended up cutting out the dog leg and front of the outer rocker on the LHS to give more access to the blaster, as you can see theres not much left of it! I wanted to remove the RHS rear quarter as well but ran out of time unfortunately Car was loaded onto the truck and off at the blasters with no issues, Im both excited and nervous to see what comes back. Couple of weeks and it should be ready 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
