I'm running 16x8 -0 offset with 225's on the front and 245 on the rear - have a bees whisker between the strut towers on the front, rear is fine. Rev

Hey Stevo, not sure if you are dialling the correct country code 0011-1-913-541-8500 dial all these numbers and you should be right. Time wise count back 3 hours and invert the Am/pm e.g it is 10:20 pm in Brisbane and 7:20am in Kansas City. Hope that helps. Rev.

Welcome, Let me know what parts you need I may be able to help out. I'm in Melbourne and can organise cheap freight to Ballarat. Rev.

Hey Gav, My mate Hayden and I have it all made OS and import it in. you can see it all at http://www.wix.com/revzed/Revs-Zed-Emporium Would be good to be able to have a banner on the site as whatever we make we will return a portion to Auszcar. Although you will see by the prices that we are doing it more as a service than a business. Rev.

Hey Bigfella, I know budget dictates most things when we are looking at working with Zeds, but from someone who knows the value of a resto and the work that goes into it the 260z @6K is value and sensible buying. You could easily spend 3K on a rusty shell just to get it the stage that this one is...just be careful that you don't price yourself out of the market by looking for something too cheap. These days with the price of Zeds if it seems to good to be true it most probably is, I think the 2k rusty 240/260z days are about gone! Rev.

Last nights effort: Lowered with king springs on 4 corners and started to play with some interior pieces. Rev.

I'll take $280.00 Rev.

These seats were recovered and only used a few months. the drivers side has been refoamed and is very comfortable. these are listed on EBAY but i will finish it early if anyone is interested. Rev.

Hi guys, Have a pair of brand new CF tail light surrounds that i purchased from the U.S I thought they were for 260z (I should have read the ad before I purchased!) anyhow If anyone is keen let me know before I list on Ebay. $250.00 Rev.

It's like Mick has said, 2 PAC outside of a booth is just not worth considering neither is the health risk without proper masks etc. The Acrylic is also great if you have to 'rework' anything later its ability to touch up etc is just plain easy. It requires more work as I have to sand it all again and then carefully cut and then polish but in the end I get a great looking finish! Rev.

Awesome work Dave! What a difference it will make having it on the 'spit', great news that floors and rails look really good, I'll look forward to watching your build. Rev.

Well done Rob! Now it's full steam ahead. Absolutely love your 'shed' area looks like you have heaps of room around the Zed to work. Rev.

Thanks Simon, I know I should have gone a little brighter, but hey, I'm a conservative kind of guy! Craig, I thought after doing 3 'smooth' rears on the other Zeds it's time to go back to the bumper! I did fill the U.S bumper holes but left everything else to either fit chrome or CF bumpers...not sure yet.

Here's the final shots of the finish (pre final sand & polish) this color was a hard one to get coverage! it took 6lt of Acrylic and 3 lt of clear all up, which equates to about 5 coats of color (wet sanded after 3) and 2 coats of clear. I'm pretty happy with the results and once again a whole lot cheaper than a paint shop! The great thing about painting yourself, if you take the time you can get an orange peel free, high gloss, repairable finish. that you can touch up anytime! I will now leave the paint until everything is finished on the interior and motor goes back in. Acrylic is best left to harden for as long as possible before it's cut and polished. Rev.

Did you get my PM! Rev.

Than ks for the encouragement guys, hope to have all paint finished by WE. Brabham the wheels are just my 'paint wheels' as soon as the car is finished painting the new shoes come out of the shed and onto the car. Those rims are actually not bad for ol' school would do up well if someone had the time! Rev.

Well Eija...you may want to take a shot on your 'first time lurking post' however to do so really negates just about everything you ever say from this time forward! I'm not big on protocol but basic manners really do show the caliber of a person and their understanding of 'community'. Lurch among others is one of the greatest contributors and sources of intellectual resource that this forum has not to mention going 'above and beyond' to help out many of us who would otherwise be left to our own 'novice' devices. I'm not a moderator on this forum however as a contributor both financial and intellectual to this Zed community I'm the first one to say BACK OFF BUDDY AND PUT YOUR MANNERS BACK IN! Rev.

Lurchos! Mel just read that and gave me a black eye and in a kick up the butt! It just took me an hour to convince her that you were joking!!!!

You can make almost anything fit depending on your skills. At a guess though I would say yes, it would be something that I would try personally. Rev.

J.B as far as I know it depends on the year of the Zed. Early 74 260z Hatch will fit a 240...I know that much! Rev.

Yea right Benji! Can't wait till yours look like this (different color though!) then we can team up with Lurchos and just CRUISE!

Got the whole car painted. Now to color sand then final coat of color and 3 coats of clear. Then sand again and polish. The countdown is on!

Some more color for today

Well done Pete. Just make sure you put some hi-fill on those guards and pods otherwise you will see those orbital marks in your finish coat. Let me know if you're not sure on anything paint wise I would be glad to help with any info. Rev.

Steve, If you get it shipped with e-go couriers it will only cost you about $30-40 anyway. www.e-go.com.au Rev.
