Thanks Mossy, I was going to try to find steel but I don't like my chances! Alfa said 5 weeks for FG and that is going to throw my schedule right out! Rev.

I know it's a big ask but I'm wondering if anyone knows if aftermarket front guards are available anywhere. Rev.

it's OK Nzeder, John said "IN' not 'IS', he was just updating his last post. Rev.

I don't know of any agents but depending on where it is i have a lot of friends who could potentially look/talk to the guy. rev.

excellent John, the shape is outstanding! Rev.

This is a 'no pic' update for now. I've been hearing Serpent tell stories of his polyester primer etc so always willing to learn and experiment went out and got some polyester high fill and....WOW This stuff is awesome! it's a 2 pac application where you lay down about 4 double header coats with about 5 minutes flash off in between, I left it overnight and then begun to sand. The finish is like nothing I've ever used, it fills the imperfections and comes out smooth as! I've just found a new best friend! Can't wait to prime and topcoat BUT lots of knocking back of the high fill first :-\ Rev.

Hi all...as the post says, I need a good to excellent vented bonnet willing to pay good price for the right bonnet. Rev.

Hey Mossy Have a set arriving next week, more than happy for you to grab them for a test fit, just give me a call when you're ready. Rev.

Hey Joel,Couldn't be happier for you! congratulations to you and Deb on the arrival of your beautiful girl Marley, just yell out if you need a hand with anything. Rev.

Hi Guys...well the basics of the website is up listing interior parts and prices stay tuned for some exciting developments with consoles, full carpet kits and speedhut supplies! Rev. http://www.wix.com/revzed/Revs-Zed-Emporium

I could say a lot here...but! I think it is more of a systemic problem, why? In years gone by most kids had far more involvement with their parents who were the 'driving instructors' it gave Mum & Dad an opportunity to download the values about driving safely with the consideration of others on the road, most times Mum & Dad also helped to buy that first car (that was purchased on a shoe string budget!) and even the kids had more respect for the vehicle, their parents for helping them and a car was a privilege rather than a right. Roll forward a few years...now we have 'expert' driver training, we've taken Dad out of the co-pilots seat with his values and authority and replaced it with a 'professional' who is more concerned about rules than intuitive values, we've got finance companies who prey on the kids to get them spending every dollar of their disposable income on that first 'very powerful' car which they wouldn't normally be able to afford until much later. If the government was serious about saving lives why don't they limit the amount of finance available to under 21 drivers?...because they make a killing through the taxes etc. We have sold our kids the new politically correct thinking that 'adolescence' is an opportunity to be free from responsibility until 21 where suddenly they are expected to overnight become a responsible adult... As I said the problem is bigger than the hoon or the car...reconnect kids to their parents and we'd halve the current problem...Just my opinion Rev.

Big Thanks to the guys for organizing another great BBQ 'get together' great to meet some new faces and encourage us all to get those zeds on the road. Rev.

Thanks one and all - I'm hoping the birthday fairy turns up tomorrow and when I wake up my Zed will be finished and waiting for me to give it a blast....hang on that's probably just old age talking...Ha Rev.

Let me tell you from MUCH experience with frustration that unless you get a compressor with at least a 50lt tank and preferably a 3 cyl to allow for lots of air you will eventually regret your purchase. You can spray a car off a cheapie but only just especially if you're trying to get a decent 2 pac job however try and run a sander or speed file on anything less than a 3 hp/ 3 cyl compressor and you're in trouble. Rev.

This car was up on ebay last year, can't remember what it sold for?

good job mate, bit by bit the masterpiece is revealed!

Hey Brab, I can help with these!

No Dimitri, this one is my keeper, however I've been asked to buy a 240z and do a complete refirb by another member so I'll have more than enough to keep me busy! Rev.

believe it or not Craig this one will come with a bumper, I just have to weld up the U.S mount holes.

Shan - you can purchase brand new FG bumpers for Bumpers F&R $138.00 each from Alfa Motorsport fibreglass they are listed under the preferred businesses on this forum. all the best. Rev.

well whilst Lurchos was helping with the guards I've been busy with the roof, rear quarters, rear and doors which have been stripped to bare metal, panel work done, etched and then primed (awaiting high fill) hope to start on the guards and bonnet this weekend - still aiming for paint by end of Feb. Rev.

Have a great day Steve. Rev.
