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:

did a simple job that i have put off for a couple of years.

some shoddy half arsed prep work, but the end result is still worth it.

Halfords satin black?

i believe so Andrew, i didnt check the can today, as its been on a shelf waiting for today for a while now, but i think thats what i bought back then

Can't do anything on the z at the moment, can't even drive it but been keeping busy with work and hydro dining stuff for people. A good friend at work has a 30 year old square body yank truck and he's in the middle of a complete overhaul.

He just bought an edelbrock intake manifold and asked me if I could make it a little more interesting than the rough cast alloy that it was.. So here's the before and after..

Sealed with silicone. Hopefully no more leaks. Still a small bit of water in the spoiler but nowhere for it to go.

 

Just washed and polished the Z before tomorrow trip to Oulton park.

 

Also received some new wipers so fitted them too:)

This will annoy you then.... :lol:

 

I've decided on the next upgrade to my z's appearance..

I'm gonna sort out the scuttle panels and roof trims.

 

I done a little test on a ropey old scuttle panel today and decided I'm going to do it.

 

Here's what I'll be doing

I do get tired of this type of comment.. Its a 1980 chevrons square body pick up truck and has a large V8 which is capable of pulling your z in two halves Ali.

The guy wanted an as American theme and decided on these flags accompanied by the body colour of the car.

The choice of words Decorated in Christmas's wrapping paper and candy stixka by the look of it" I find quite offending as this is a piece of my work that I'm quite proud of.

I do wish people could think before they type these things in here..

Oh and just so you can see the 7.2ltr V8 chevy engine it's being bolted to, here it is again in all its Christmas paper glory :angry:

Apologies Paul, I had no intention to cause offence. I could not see the resemblance of the American flag mesh and honestly I was wondering what you were getting at.

Admittedly it was a bit of a early comment, only meant to be a bit of banter.

Reception contacted me this morning, requesting that I remove my large package.

Thanks Mondo for all of the advice :)

Will do, got to fit them yet, when Lee has finished with the car it will have the blue flame exhausts on it that I got from Ted, but depending on how they look, I may change the boxes as I'm really wanting the flat ovals on there. I might even have them made to be changeable lol
