Linc Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Hey everyone, So I've been a forum member for a while, as I managed to find a 260Z 2+2 a couple years back while I was in school. I have no mechanical experience so there's been lots of reading and Youtube videos since then (if only my diesel mechanic brother would be bothered to help :/ hahaha). It's a ground up restoration, its been painfully slow but heaps of fun. Now VCE is well out of the way and I'm raising some money, and have more spare time up my sleeve I thought it's about time that I introduced myself on the forum. This is a really good forum, and has been so helpful. It's great to be part of the Z community! Ponyo240z 1 Quote

krizza Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) G'day Linc, it is good to see another bus getting some love. Is that twin DGV webers in the second pic? Edited April 26, 2017 by krizza Quote
nizm0zed Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 looks like a good solid base to play with, should come up nicely.as a mechanic I can appreciate not wanting to work on another car after working on them all day, but maybe bribe your brother with food or something, pizza and car night. Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted April 26, 2017 Administrators Posted April 26, 2017 Just the right amount of patina and looks like little rust. Should be a fun project. Quote
Linc Posted April 27, 2017 Author Posted April 27, 2017 G'day Linc, it is good to see another bus getting some love. Is that twin DGV webers in the second pic? Hey! It feels good bringing it back to its former glory.. I think they might be actually. Although I really have no idea if they're a decent mod to the original ones or not. Quote

Just the right amount of patina and looks like little rust. Should be a fun project. Yeah it's really in not that bad shape compared to some other ones I've seen. For a first project, it's not a bad one to start with. Hahaha of course!! How did I not think of food??!! I think he feels how you feel, was a struggle just to get him to service my mums truck haha Quote
