aussie240z Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Hi and Welcome I went down the path with my first one (240Z) full rebuild and then went to a road ready and the rebuilt while staying registered so enjoy the experience, the end result will be worth it and good luck as you go along. I am in the Illawarra with a 240Z so happy to have a chat at some stage. Cheers Ian Quote
Paulo Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Good to see another Zed under "constructive surgery" - welcome and good luck. I'm located in Silverdale, so perhaps our paths will cross - I start spraying in September when the weather gets more conducive (at LAST!!!), happy to give you any contacts you may need as the project unfolds.
