hypertrev Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 hi guys time is something i have found i dont have at the moment, and so it is sad that i am looking to get rid of a project i barely begun except for collecting parts for the build. this is a very clean shell, i would say 98% rust free, with a lot of hard work done. it comes with most of the parts to complete, minus an engine and gearbox. i bought this transfer my running gear from another Zed, but it is perfect for anyone wanting to do a complete change to either RB26 or V8. i will try to answer all questions i can, and post as many photos as i can. i am hoping for $1500 to cover the parts in this car, notably the front guards that come with it are fibreglass, and the dash is complete and only has one split... i will try and get photos up, and when i have more time i will try to liost all the bits and what you might still need to get. the car is in VIC, and i could possibly deliver on a trailer by negotiation. thanks for having a look Quote

hypertrev Posted July 8, 2013 Author Posted July 8, 2013 ok, so let me try and list all the bits that are included with the shell. first, for the person who asked, the sills are clean. no rust that i can see, and only some minor bubbles on the bonnet and under the fuel filler flap. really superficial. other sections have been repaired prior to me owning it. the only bad part is a section cut out and not replaced yet under the drivers side rear quarter window. most of it is below the chropme trim, so hidden. fiberglass or weld a section in and done. ok. so the bits. basically entire shell except the lower centre valance panel. i didnt bother with this as i was going to mount a spoiler. so the front corners are there with the indicator/parkers ready to remove and put in a spoiler. rear bar in ok condition, front bar requiring rerolling and chroming rear taillight assemblies and centre light all in good condition. i was going to repaint gloss black. front head lights with inner buckets ok. need rewiring? fuel tank and pump removed but in car, was going to replace all breather hoses but main fill tube good. sender in tank. fume/expansion tank all complete all orginal loom there and unmolested rear diff (perhaps from an auto as the car was originally) manual pedal box already in car but no master or slave cylinder. brake booster complete and working interior: dash complete, period correct guages for model centre console ok, not great but usable or good to fix most of the diamond trim vinyl for the rear is complete, but dirty and needs a little TLC. new trans tunnel carpet in loop pile, but will need new floor carpets and side parts. carpet retainer at door complete. seats yes, but i woudl definately retrim or replace. curently in some hounds tooth pattern? but usable and work fine tilt and slide etc head lining in cream, ok condition. all hatch inner trim panels there and ok, rear seat side quarter trims ok, hatch struts good, even hatch trim panel good. but need the trims for the tops of the rear wheel arches, or you could just carpet here too... what i think is needed to complete: engine gearbox carbies some little trim bits like rear corner chrome piece for window rubber ( just one corner) side mirrors front quarter indicators as the fibrebglass guards hevent been cut yet ( or leave them off if this is legal?) its curently rolling on a set of original 260z alloys in ok condition, will come up good with a polish i really think this is a good project car, and think thsat a fellow ZED person would enjoy this car when completed, so thought i would offer it up heere before selling it in parts or on ebay if i had the time i would finish it, but baby commitments mean other things for me! thanks again for looking Quote
hypertrev Posted July 20, 2013 Author Posted July 20, 2013 just thought i would add, i have a set of extractors to fit ( a little surface rust but usable) no rear exhaust system, i was going to get one made up once the engine was fitted like the Z432 style with the vertical twin pipes will update as i think of more. i will attempt to get some more photos up soon Quote
hypertrev Posted July 28, 2013 Author Posted July 28, 2013 thanks for your interest guys, the car is SOLD Quote
