  1. I have to say that you are both are right, I need to continue with this build. When I began looking into starting to work on my car I stumbled on to this site and I am blown any by the information and free exchange of ideas. I have done a few searches on some of the questions I have such as on how to attach the panels to the body and have found a wealth of information. I have been away from working on cars for over twenty years so I feel like a newbie. As well, when I put this project away in 1985 I had rebuilt the L24 and it is still sitting on the engine stand in the corner of the shop under a tarp, I wonder what it will look like when I open it up?
  2. You are right it was a very stressful time when we pulled the molds off, there were a few spots that did not let go cleanly and lots of the original body work came off with the molds. It did not take much work to clean up the molds but there was nothing let to make another set from. Thanks to everyone for their input and thoughts, this puts me back sitting on the fence as to which way I should go.
  3. After you said kind of firebirdish I had another look through the photos and realized that I was wrong on the date. It was 1985 not the early 90's as I thought. I guess that is why I am not inclined to finish this as it does look a little dated. And yes it was a fair bit of work to put aside. Although I had the help of an incredible bodyman who was/is a master with a sander. I posted a couple more photos of the front from other angles.
  4. I thought I would post a few photos of a project I started in the early 90's. These are pics of the body work built on wire mesh and bondo over a 72 240z, I made fiberglass molds of the front and back end and then made fiberglass panels from the molds. I put the project away without finishing it. I now find myself ready to start working on my Z again, but have found that I am leaning towards restoring the Z back to org.
