Afternoon All! Newbie in Bracknell, BERSKSHIRE

Hello!

 

Having just moved to north Bracknell, i have finally scraped together some pennies to buy myself a zed!

 

Reading through some threads i saw a few of you live Ascot way??

 

About my zed: 3.0 TT manual, Jap import. It runs beautifully, but is need of some body work/ cosmetic work to be done! It sailed through its MOT and service at zed world ( Phew :yes: ), and as its an import, doesnt have any corrosion.

What lets the beast down is that it has a fair few dents all over, so will need 2 new front wings, new n/s door, aaaaaaand a respray :pinch: !

 

Ry

    Thanks for the warm welcome! looking forward to expanding my knowledge on the zed, just browsing through; there is about a years worth of reading to do - very helpful!!!

     

    haha nice spot Rich, its just north of Hampskhire!

     

    Quality to see you're just round the corner Andy! Yes mate, that would be ace if you have some wings kicking about!

    p.s. My knowledge of mechanics is not too good, so if you ever need someone to stand there holding parts/general labour i'd be up for helping as i could watch and learn!

    Don't worry too much about the body work bud,

     

    cars this age do have a few battle scars - if your car was absolutely mint, you'd be too worried to leave it anywhere!! Get it looking respectable and let other people worry about minor imperfections!

     

    Welcome to the club - Jap TT's rule - its official!

    This is true about having a perfect body- you would be constantly paranoid about some pillock nudging your car in a supermarket car park etc!!

     

    I must however admit the pictures are deceiving, as they hide the dents quite nicely!! And yeah i love the wheels, remind me of a ferrari F40 ....however they are also in need of a refurb! they've got what looks like limescale type stuff encrusted all over them which must have settled on them after years of neglect :no: ! But i've read up on the respray thread on here, so will give them a rub down and spray!

     

    Daffy mate - that sounds like a plan!!

     

     

    Nice one Andy - Just woken up from a lovely night shift-will give you a bell if your still working on your machine!

    Nice to meet you Ryan.

     

    It's good to have another local enthusiast in the area.

     

    You have a good car there just a few minor bits need sorting as per usual but nothing too drastic.

     

    Give me a shout any time.

     

    Andy
