"Paul Bailey" body kits

Hi. I was trying to figure out what body kit my Z32 has as it's nothing like I can find online, and I believe it's a UK-made Paul Bailey Designs kit from the 90s, it seems like these kits have rarely been mentioned anywhere online in the last 20 years, but to my understanding they were sought after back in the day but the man who made them has been unheard of since the 90s. I'm wondering if anyone here knows of these bodykits and if they know anything about what it may be worth? I'm close to parting out the Z due to structural rust issues but lost when it comes to potentially selling the bodywork. Just don't want it to go to waste if/when I give up on this project. I can attach pictures if you guys like, it's a horrible colour but very unique shape. Just seems to be so little information out there about such a thing
Thanks

My daughter calls it Toothless the Dragon: My ‘95 TT Z

After many hours research and consulting OCS, I decided to try something somewhat new with my piston rings.

I have decided to run Total Seal Gapless pistons rings. The setup includes a gapless top ring, with conventional second and oil control rings. To my knowledge I’m the only person in the UK to be running gapless rings on a VG30, but I know of at least one other in the states that have shown very positive results.

The term gapless is a bit of a misnomer. It’s a 2 piece ring, with their individual ring gaps rotated 180 degrees from each other, effectively making the area around the ring gapless. The positives include virtually 0 blowby (so a 0-1% leakdown vs 5% on a conventional ring), increased vacuum and reduced oil fuel dilution. The other benefit is you can run a larger ring gap on the 2 pieces, allowing the a wider margin for thermal expansion without the downside of increased blow by
The only real downside that I can see is the cost, at around 30% more than a CP Piston ring pack.

Hopefully this will help with slightly improving my idle vacuum (due to my cam profile) and a generally more efficient engine.

Also spent a bit of time with the burrs to clear out the casting debris and stress risers from around the bottom of the block around the crank journals.
This casting debris is from the imperfect casting mould that leave small sections of iron/sand mix still attached to the main casting. In certain situations, harmonics can release bits of this debris which then has the potential to destroy the bearings, an engine, by being circulated by the oil system.

Stress risers are similar. They’re very fine ridges in the casting that can form a weak point. Simple remedy is grind them back flush.

Well I got my block back from OCS last week and have started on the block prep for deep clean and assembly
first job was to clear the excessive casting flash in the centre coolant channel and smooth the entry point out. Out came the long shank tungsten carbide burrs. A small but positive improvement
