with very heavy heart am sad to say my zed is dead it hit some damp leafs as the boost came on the sill is all smashed it as the car went through a wall sideways i know some on here will read this i be gutted and small few will be happy anyhow the car is a write of am not sure if out now of the z game if so there will be a lot of parts for sale soon if i keep on i will but another car swap its all over but rite now i think am going to move on i would also be open to offer to buy it as it was as there is lots of good parts on the car

 

Truly gutted for you Dan, you did a great job of building a beautiful example. Hope your ok bud

So sorry to see this Dan thank god you walked away . I know how i would feel so im lost for words really mate. As tom said if we can help at all just shout mate.

shit happens first ever crash so done ok all them years plus there will be some nice parts to come off for other cars to use the cycle of life goes on

maybe you need to start taking the trick bits off asap mate and replacing with your old OEM for insurance reasons iff you know what i mean;)

I was thinking the same, if like James (Jjp) and the insurance just took the car and scrapped it without letting you buy it back, you could stand to lose a lot of trick parts/cash.

the car is not moving from my garden no matter what they say

I wonder how JeffTT would evaluate it. Maybe its possible to cut the whole sill off and replace it, new door, and the front end just looks like bent metal.

Whoops!

wowsa didn't expect that this afternoon!!! very sad to see but good noone was hurt!

Only this afternoon I was in the train watching all your YouTube videos of the car thinking how nice your Z was! Glad you're alright :)

the sill it bent in deep the inner wheel arch is all bent in you can see it gone to far write off i wouldnt want to drive it after a fix or let anyone else scrap heap job

 

this is what i would like next sell bike and my x5 just have work van and gtr

Enjoy the GTR Dan they are ballistically fast.

have not got one yet am just working out a plan i dont fancy another 300zx build no and the gtr would fit the bill nice but i would need to get my x5 to but i dont use it anyhow

Dan, I have no words. I hope you're ok matey, physically and mentally. [emoji17]

 

My thoughts too....:sad:

 

I can't believe that Dan - after all your hard work; I am truly gutted for you. And no-one should be happy about this mate - not anyone with a heart and soul, anyway.

 

I hope you're alright though; metal can be reshaped and/or replaced - but us flesh and blood mortals only get one shot at life. Chin up Dan, at least you got to walk away...:clover:

i can think of one but thats another story never mind move on sell up and seee what i can do next the gtr is on the list now but i will settle for another lotus its is a shame as it was one of the very best zeds left but it done now am ok about it am just going to go bigger and better this time

I'm new to the scene dude but my heart goes out to you. The main thing is that you are ok.

As much as these are becoming rare it's still a car and can be replaced.

Like a few others have said. Take time to evaluate the situation and decide the best route forward. The GTR is a mental car but can it beat the driving pleasure from the 300?

Without sounding like a magpie either I do have a rather long list of original parts I need as well.

Anyway glad you are ok bud.

Gutted for you Dan, especially after all the work and effort that has gone into your Zed.

 

As many others have said, it's good to hear that no one was hurt.

Gutted for you bud:( hope your ok that was a nice Zed,I myself know what devastating effect hitting sandstone walls do to a car....I hit one in Frodsham....took the front end of my brand new Toyota:(,anyhow hope everything works out for you Dan:)

Totally gutted for you Dan...I have followed you build thread with great interest.. As others have said ... at least you are ok .. physically

Sorry to see. Devastating. :( I was reading your build thread yesterday.

Unlucky Dan. Doesn't look to different to my crash at Cadwell Park a couple of years ago and we managed to pull it out gotta be worth a go :)

You're ok mate, that's the main thing. Cars can always be rebuilt or replaced.

The GTR is a mental car but can it beat the driving pleasure from the 300?

 

Yes. Yes it can.

 

Do it Dan, if its affordable to you why not? I'm trying to get myself in a position to buy one right now also!

Sorry to see, & all the time & effort put into it!

Glad ur not injured though.

Sorry to see this mate, was a great looking car. I crashed a VX220 into two trees once because of a wet patch...I know exactly how you feel. The replacement looks nice tho... Take care bro.
