Going to start this thread for members to post up what they did each day to there zed. I will start with getting my MOT this morning. So what did you do today on your 300?:cool3:

Finished the Fan shroud for my electric fan conversion.... sat in garden for 30 mins and imagined the Z was on the road and I was driving with the t'tops out.....lol

Nice work Joely P...... looks like you have been enjoying the sunshine in essex as well.......lol

Freshened up my swage line all around the car as it does fade over time, I used some 8mm shiny black vinyl :wink:.

 

Got some reclaimed wood from a local timber yard and knocked up some ramps. It was slightly more 'reclaimed' than I hoped to be honest as a good 30% of it was spilt beyond use, more than half of it was warped and twisted and all of it was a mixture of widths in and around 9" but I made it work! Should help a fair bit as jacking can be a right pain in the hoop on my driveway...

taken off throttle cable

taken off fuel tank

taken off AC Rad

gave Christine a good seeing too

Fitted both of my japspeed steering arms

I insured it :)

Another 60 miles....fab:cool2:

today i striped and cleaned my calipers for new seals and re-painting.. nice to keep things fresh after all

Another 100 mile today...with water temps not getting past 76 degree and oil at 80.

just got a nissan parts cd for my zed to make finding parts much easyer. yay!!

re insured it, mot'd it and taxed it.

I'm not a trimmer but I take care and time with the jobs I do and having done the doors the other day, I got more made up and have done the piping all around now including under the steering wheel :yes:.

 

Took my inspiration from the great mondo for the doors but the rest I aint seen before done and I think it's turned out very well :thumbup1:.

 

 

 

I like that Andy, gives it a nice sense of depth and finishes off really nicely. Did you get the piping made then glued it on or did you buy a roll from somewhere?

Started making a nice list of everything I need to do in some kind of order and it is huuuuggggge......... OMG.... starting to look daunting again......lol

Had to build 10ft trampoline for my sons birthday tomorrow so didn't get too much done today....lol

Initially I was looking to buy some cord or rope from ebay but I have an upholsterer friend so went asking him, they make it up by just cutting out a 2 inch or so piece of fabric and folding/stitching it around a length of like cotton wool tubing. You can see it clearly as it runs down the top sides of the center arm rest. In the other areas I forced this 'flange' under, the only bits I hot glued were on the roof of the glove box and a bit under the handbrake.

 

So should I need to remove some panels it will just be a case of forcing it back under again.

 

On the doors I cut this flange off as close to the stitching as possible and used hot glue to hold in place :thumbup1:.

brilliant work sir

finally put my engine back :)

 

 

 

 

Resprayed and refitted the wiper arms, gave her a wash and a wax and then taxed her. Great to have her back on the road. Cambelt change next weekend.

Started fitting everything back together, most of the pics are on my Facebook, but I love my front end so thought i'd share it lol

 

That looks amazing Keith! Looking forward to seeing it at the next meet
