Sirpent Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Amateur painter ???? Pfffffffffffffft ! That's a great job Pete, now did I ever tell you about using corn flower to cut and polish a car? Well Done Quote
peter t Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 You may have done John and I seem to recall somthing about doing this but my span of attention is not good. I have spent the last 20 minutes typing up a reply thanking all you guys for you assistance and comments and somehow you replyed to me and I lost the lot. Hope this works. Quote
peter t Posted November 2, 2012 Author Posted November 2, 2012 No worries John, but again thanks to all you guys for all your help in my journey. Don't forget November is MO month and for all us guys that have been through prostate cancer and if you are 40 or over go and get checked. Better to driving a Z than dead. Quote
Corsa224 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 Hi Peter, Thanks for the call yesterday. here's the drawing of the 2 different 2+2 1/4 window designs Quote
d3c0y Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 They look the same to me? One just shows different seals and parts so the diagram isnt cluttered. Quote
Corsa224 Posted November 12, 2012 Posted November 12, 2012 hi dsc0y, different pillar designs, the lower pic dosnt have a pillar and use's the window as support, where as the one above has a seprate pillar which the the 1/4 windows screws too and also has a different seal design. Quote
peter t Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 Update on the BLOCKING OFF and POLISHING. What a dork I have been putting up with the ten foot paint job. Finished blocking with 2000 w&d, polishing and washing and f@@k what a difference. Now I am really proud to say I painted it myself. :o :o :o :o :o Quote
peter t Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 More. ;) ;) ;) Now I have to put all the bits back on. : : Quote
PZG302 Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Looking good Peter, a real credit to you and it shows what can be done at home with patience and dedication. Quote

KatoKid Posted November 17, 2012 Posted November 17, 2012 Looks brilliant Pete. Must be a great feeling. Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted November 17, 2012 Moderators Posted November 17, 2012 Must make you feel proud every time you open the garage door.. Quote
peter t Posted November 17, 2012 Author Posted November 17, 2012 Thanks for the comments fellow Zérs. It is great to learn how to fix up your stuff ups and achieve a resonable result. Love the Z, always something to tinker with. Quote
Rat1314 Posted November 18, 2012 Posted November 18, 2012 I thought it looked good when I picked up the spoiler but now it looks fantastic. Quote
peter t Posted January 18, 2013 Author Posted January 18, 2013 Got sick of washing the dust off the Z so I come up with this. Bought a light car cover and a couple of pulleys and some rope. Now I can get the Z out of the shed nice and shiny without having to wash it every time. Got to let it cool down before lowering the cover. Result. no more dust covered Z. Quote
peter t Posted January 18, 2013 Author Posted January 18, 2013 I'm a hatin you soo much right now! Why man? I just love sharing the crazy things that work with you guys. Quote
KatoKid Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Nice one Pete, Im going to have to do the same thing......living on a dirt road means there is constantly dust in the air. Quote
PeterAllen Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Peter, it's obvious you have too much time on your hands. Come down and help me empty the contents on my shed into a skip. Quote
zzzzed Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Wahhhhhh!! I would so love to hang that gto250 front on my shed wall Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted January 19, 2013 Moderators Posted January 19, 2013 Is that an old 386 PC at the bottom left? Hope that front end is just there temporarily till you make room again in the shed.. Quote
