Thanks Gary. Exactly 20 years ago to the day this advertisement appeared in Autotrader and I bought her following morning.

Thanks Guys! It's much appreciated. Look forward to seeing you at one of the meets this year and also the 20th year of ownership my Z32.

And it has the all important red badge!

Thanks for the info. I wonder how Z1's will compare in quality to the Wiring Specialties offerings and if a RHD version will be made?

Take a look at this slicktop for ideas. It has a black painted top. '99 spec front bumper and '99 spec rear lights. It also has the TwinZ Type 1 rear spoiler which runs a second to the best one (IMO) that being the OEM '89 spec. http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2621393/Slicktop-TT-Back-from-Paint.html

I'm sure you have pics on a blue but just in case... https://www.z1motorsports.com/imageGallery/main.php/v/Cusomers-Cars/300-ZX/album156/

How much is the road tax now in your neck of the woods?

Congratuations on your purchase and the start of your Z32 adventure! You will be needing a TT front bumper at some stage if you are going the TT route (respray of roof/bonnet time?). The car has an airbag steering wheel fitted which you could have retrimmed if you wanted to keep it or go for the pre airbag type.

Good luck with your search. BTW the example above has a very poorly fitting (probably fiberglass copy) rear spoiler on the n/s.

I have the Hella Twin Tones...
