At last, the Z's been on/off the road for the last 5 years, and only done probably 10k in all that time, and at last i've got enough spare money to keep it on the road this time.... so its just passed the MOT (with the obligatory warning about head-lights, why is it every car i ever MOT has to have some hickup with headlights....)
anyway, at long last... Sunny days the panels out, ahh nothing like it, having a hoot round country lanes, mmmmm.... now of course the problem is when you get the Z back on the road you start to notice all the little jobs you forgot about, and erm my list is growing:
-Intermitent windows, which i think is dry joints.
-Slight blowing noise from up-front, which i think is manifold gasket, grrrrr
-repair a tear in the passenger seat
-new front pads
-remove awful rear tint on back window
-fit HID conversion
-repair the aerial (only half extends)
-refurb the alloys
-sort paint chip on rear bumper and ding in rear n/s panel
but part of the fun in the Z is the tinkering time....
i'm hoping to come down to the JapFest at SantaPod so maybe see a few Z's there?
