Cheers mate,
I'll measure the doors tonight and get back to you.

To all the Brisbane/south east queensland people, send me a PM if you want a set of seals and I'll order you a set to. Just pay me when they come (well unless I get inundated with people).

Got a quick pic today when i went for a spin. Will have to get some decent shots tho. Very happy with how the wheels sit under the gaurds but i need to roll the front lip just a tad.

Drives great. Doesn't skip into the lane of oncoming traffic now  :o. The auto trans fluid in the wet legs combined with the King springs work well together. I have only done a string line alignment atm, but i am usually only a mm or 2 out.

Hey Simon, love the new wheels mate, you planning on putting ZG flares on, or just rolling the guards?

And Oi Scoot, my Z's will be sitting in my shed within a month. I'm behind cause I had to buy a house for my Z's.

Just thought I would add a more recent pics to the thread. Gave the wheels a good polish by hand the other day and they came up magic. Scoota, you would be proud.
Also sent 40mtrs of the door seal up to Qld to Garvice. How did you go Brad?

Looking good mate, door rubbers have all been distributed. Will look at doing mine over the holiday period.

I am considering putting my Z on the market so before I go and type up a big long add in the FS section I thought I might update some pics from the Tassie run in Feb and tease you all a bit.
Cheers. Simon.

Hey Simon,if you are thinking about selling, I might know someone who will be interested. Just a small request, could you take a pic of the door latch (catch) when the door is open. Just to  make sure its a late model....and how much were you thinking of?...

Yep. Only the late 76-77 got these door latches. 74-early 76 had the 240 type.
