And like the bionic man,i have the know how,and want,the car will be stripped of every single nut and bolt, the car came with also two of the last genuine nissan front still wings,that you cant buy,these are like brand new,the car also came with an unspoilt compleate ane rust free roof,, the car also came with a genuine non split non marked origanal compleate front internal dash with all wiring and dials. Of witch i could possibly sell for anything from a thousand pounds to two plus as they dont exssit, but i have one ,yep yep. so you see tomorow ill put up some more pics in the non 300 thing abd start a thread for those intrested,i have big plans for this zed and i will bring here back to life, long live the zed

No i know why this car is never being touched buy the early zed lovers,its rotton its,not just rotton but its ,ok buckng rotton,.the roof is cream crackered, absolutly bucked, and no normal human would take this on, the car chassis rails are shirt, well nearly shirt,might as well be.the floor although has being bodged and semi ,somone has atemted at some stage to replace, so thats actully a plus for the car, cas althought its a bodge job a d is shit,it dose mean that although the floor needs replacing the structral integratry has been kept, the fact that there was an incedent involing the foof of the car ment sometime over the last twenty years some plonker had filled the roof up with filler,and some ****t had put a sunroof in it before,so it was destinde to fail. And did.the roof is so far gone and bucked ,this is the only reason someone ,in the zed world hasnt bought the car,befor,and over the last ten plus years the already rot set in,the roof is dead,so the car was parked up whilst i suspect some rear arces were weilded in and aload of pooh stuffed around to makethe look good.some fanny decided to bodge the floor,bogde the sills infact, looking over this car its been bodged patched and well,words carnt explane.now see me. I found this shed of a car although compleatly bodged nuy repair over the years has kept the car straght,the font chassis isnt to bad,the firwall is also very goog,,this is why no one wants this car, i on the other hand have owed two car body repare shops years ago and because the struture is straght can and will rebuild her,starting with a very solid good roof that i git with the car,
