I'll post some photos on here as I go along. Presumably the 240Z body and paint section is the best place. It'll be unusual stuff though. Finished the chassis jig today. Will most likely be cutting through a lot of the parts I'm planning to replace to get the shell into the right shape prior to replacing a lot of parts.

I've not come across that course before - thanks I'll look into it. Will probably also take a week immersion course and night class if the job happens. Yes - it's a rust free Californian export. An importer brought it over and a friend bought it by accident on eBay. A lot of the nastier stuff was hidden by half an inch of bondo. The worst bit is the roof. But it is mostly rust free. I'm doing a write up of the project on http://www.vord.net/cars/240z/ (there are dimensions for the chassis jig on there if anyone wants them) but the project won't start getting fun until the jig is finished and I can start replacing the damaged and botched parts.

I only speak two words of Spanish but I do like the word Hola as it seems very friendly to me. I'll include the other word later in the post Currently fixing up a shell that came in to the UK from the states and turned out to be much messed around with. I've only just started. This is the shell as it arrived: But it's muchos bent following poor repairs after a roll. So a chassis jig is needed for straightening. That was the job for this week (and I'll finish it at the weekend) but here's a sneak preview: I'm new to the Z world. So just a hi and how are you all. Might be able to post progress on here but (you guessed it) there might be a big gap as I've been asked to work in Spain for 4 months. Anyone recommend fast learning courses to increase my word count?
