Hi everyone, been away for a while concentrating on family and work for a while as the Z funds ran dry...

 

I managed to procure an original Nissan Consult unit and have successfully repaired it over the past month or so....

 

If anyone locally needs to use it then let me know if I can help..... and you can either pop round or I maybe able to come to you....

 

Getting ready to swap out the faulty auto box, transmission ECU and prop shaft when the weather picks up....

 

Paint maybe a while off yet.......

Welcome back Russ - glad to read that you haven't lost the faith!

Good to hear from you Russ :thumbup1:Hope all is well mate.

Hi Andrew and Gary, I'm all good...... had a few health issues, family issues and the usual financial issues....... Basically had a few issues.... lol

Health is getting better slowly, hopefully my pneumothorax will repair itself...... been hard to do anything with partially deflated lung.... but doctors are monitoring me now...

about 1 3/4 of my lungs are okay at the moment..... so taking life easy... still at work every day throughout this, so doing okay..... lol

Just hard to exert myself doing much more than light work, even though I keep over doing it at work...

So the Z will be worked on when I am up to it. Not rushing or making myself worse....

How has everyone been???

nice one Russ, good to see you back :thumbup:

I was getting worried about you my old fruit, glad your on the mend.

Stephen......... Your life with your Z is toast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good to see you back on the forum Russ, hope your health continues to improve.

You have been missed mate.

 

I can relate to your health issues to some degree, I am currently on a 4 week medication stint in readiness for my heart opp/procedure.

Not looking forward to 4 hours in theatre mind.

I have not been allowed near the Zed until afterwards.

Hope all goes well for you on 7th....

Internal ablations via cryogenic balloon.:sweatdrop:

Problem being is that they will have to get to the right hand side upper chamber, this will involve passing through from the left side and piecing through the dividing wall.:shock:

 

Sorry for the hijack Russ, got carried away there. :blushing:
