Hi everyone, Just seeing if anyone has a set of 240z/260z Headlight cover lenses available to suit the outer metal rings. Thanks Ric

Hey Tran is it? I have 300zx z31 turbo Master cylinder which I believe is the same size? I'm happy to swap for that if you are. Thanks 0421238443 ric

What an fantastic set of carbs. The noise out of these would be amazing. Best of luck with the sale

Wishing a safe and merry Christmas to everyone here! Ric

This car looks amazing. What it was and what it is now. Well Done

The Music gets me everytime i actually laugh out loud.

Now that's amazing. Well done Time for once upon a rust Part 2! Ric

That Colour looks Great Congratulations Ric

looks good john! Ric

Thanks John! Locky that's definitely the easier way. i'll be sending all the panels away to get media blasted without a doubt. I've also put my name down for floor pans from rare spares so i'm just waiting on a call back. Ric

Update Time Really not doing fun work at the moment but have been putting hours in stripping back the two coats of paint off the front of the car Engine bay, scuttle panel and fenders looking much better The air duct that sits in the cavity area underneath the cowl panel was rusty so i have drilled out the spot welds to remove the top cover then drilled out the duct. This work in itself has taken alot of time. The extra coat of paint didn't help either The Rotisserie is certainly making life easier. I would be really struggling with this work without it Ric

Still Following This good work John! Ric

Love this build thread. Nice work jeff Ric

Thanks jeff yeah looking forward to getting stuck into it Ric

Hey all It Was a productive week stripping all the front/rear suspension and components out of the car and putting the car on jack stands. The next was fitting the rotisserie adaptors onto the car and raising the front end up. everything seemed to work out alright with help from a couple friends and it was a big milestone for the car. I spent saturday removing the brake lines,fuel lines,handbrake assembly and just generally staring at the car. Today was a break day. I'm happy the footy is back on, went down to ikon park to watch carlton and essendon play. Thanks Ric

Thanks john

Hey all So Its been nearly 5 1/2 years but finally i've been able to start working on this car. Life had well and truely gotten in the way but i managed to hold onto it. Anyway its become a priority now and i hope to put in consistent work and bring it back to the condition which it deserves. I don't really post much but will do my best to give milestone updates on the car. I've taken out the rb20det and started removing everything from the car getting it ready for the rotisserie. The plan is for this to be my weekend car. I'd like it to be close to original with nice paint job. Power isn't a concern at the moment but a nice set of headers and triples would definitely be an option. Serial Number is HS30-00862 Ric

I met John for the first time today and was very impressed by his build. The attention to detail and engineering he is putting into this car is to be admired. It will be a one of kind car when he is finished also still giving the option to bring it back to original if need be. Really nice and welcoming also thanks for your time john! Ric
