11 year project finally finished , with a big thanks to Jim at power Zed , finally someone who knows what they are doing , will up load more images when the car is back from the detailers

Wow and need more info Phil.

Were do I start , car has a lot of history , featured in Auto car October 1999 , its a fair lady import , i am the 2nd owner since it arrived in the uk ,  the work the car has had done is endless , I will list and upload more images when the car comes back from the detailers , its going for a full detail , wheels , callipers ,etc. some of the work was done by luke at the Z centre , but its fair to say it needed Jim's expertise to finish the car, 2 new Garrett turbos as well as other works to make sure the car was right  , because i wouldn't show it until it was right , i will do a full history of the car at some stage ,with images etc , including the 8pot front brake set up and the 4 pot rear brake set up , all suspension and steering changed the list goes on

 

regards

Phil

A Very nice zed 247phil love the interior seen your zed when i was at jimmers stunning car…how you finding the D2,s had them on my zed for years 

To be fair mate , I have only driven the car twice in 11 years , I was waiting till the car was right , I know intend to drive it more know ,just waiting for V5 to come back ,so I can tax it , lost the thing in move , the car normally lives in a car cocoon, cant wait to start showing the car to other enthusiasts 

 

 

You can see the hours of workmasnship that has gone into that car, engine bay looks exceptionally clean!?

Yes mate , basically anything that could be changed ,has been changed ,all new seals on pretty much everything ,new belts , engine bay skins fitted , the list goes on.

Hi and welcome Phil - and that is one damn fine Zed you have....!!

Sometimes you need a lot of will to keep going! I once bought a nice VW Beetle 1970 model, stripped it down and never finished it... ended up being scrapped?

I like the subtleness of the engine bay, not too blingy etc... your project is inspiration for those who have let their Zed's, (like me?), just sit around for too long and not finish off bits and pieces!

 

Congratulations on getting your project to that level of loveliness! Look forward to seeing the car in the metal one day.

Beautiful car, congrats on getting it finished!

Are the 3 gauges integrated into the dash fabric somehow? Got quite a stock look from what I can see

Now get out on those roads and enjoy it! ?

All the gauges in the car have been replace by Luke at the z centre , centre pod is the triple dash pod and all gauges have been changed to digital ,looks good especially when you start the car

Yes mate ,its been a lot of time and effort and was waiting for the right person to finish the car (Jim @ power Z) really knows his stuff and does it right , Luke @ the Z centre had a lot of input as well , but its be worth the time and effort
