    I used a syncrowave 250 on that tank.It can even make a hack look good.

    Thats true but I guess I was refering to the last few seasons, not just this past one.

    Ya, those are excelent links. If there were plans for the trailer I built, it would have taken less time for sure.This is my first car carrying trailer and only made for a Z or anything else under 2500lbs. With the single axle, you barely know its back there.

    I half agree with you, if you have a decent sized area to work in , have good metal cutting saws ( not a sawzall ) and a 208/230 mig it can be very satisfiing to make your own trailer. However, if your missing just one of these elements it will be a very unpleasant experience.

    That rust is actually above the rail and is what ties the rail to the body.

    If thats anywhere near Tucson, check out " LIL' ABNERS " I havent been there since the late seventies but it was some good back in the day.

    I'm having this same problem with binding. My car is lowered 2-3", R200 LSD, MM companion flanges and flipped 300zx CV's. The wheels turn freely while on the lift, but off the lift, you cant even push the car.Ive had to swap the 280 axles back in.

    the bad dog jack plates are designed to weld to your rocker and floor pan. They should be centered front to back along the rocker with the 1/2 ' bar on the inside of the lip thats along the bottom of the rocker and the 1/2" flange is on the outside of the lip. The angled end should contact the floor pan. When weled in place, you can jack the whole side of the car at once.

    welcome home...now get to work on that Z

    Nice job, I like the shape.Is it a channel or a tube? What do you plan for a finish?
  19. Roostmonkey
    Dont do it. No matter what car you get, its gonna cost your hard earned money. You have most of the key ingredients to make your Z something really special. Evo's are a dime a dozen and it sounds like you'll have a payment to go with it. Stick it out, pace yourself and finish it when you can.

    Those are pine needles. As for the Porsche, the motors blown and will cost as much or more than the cars worth to repair/replace or so I'm told. Prolly because the owner still owes a buch of money on the car. Good candidate for a theft claim...I didnt say that.

    While taking a breather from the fumes when making the fiberglas moulds, I spotted these two refuges hibernating. Almost brought a tear to my eye. Ive always had a soft spot for a Pantera.

    My GUESS is , no , its a two part epoxy like material.

    It was fun learning this proccess but burping MEK fumes two hours later kinda freaked me out. Now my right eye twitches uncontrolabely. The things we do for the good of our Z community...

    Find a good powder coater that will acid etch your parts and powdercoat them any color you want. Most of the trim on the first gen Z's is polished Stainless and could also be beadblasted to add some hook for paint. I wouldnt use spray paint on any trim pcs.

    Not a fancy photo but I thought this Alfa had a fancy front end. This pic was taken in Rome.
