Snp93 Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hopefully this isn't a repost. I figured a lot of you fabricators out there would appreciate this guy converting a 240Z to a solid aluminum body. He has some other projects that he has finished. I haven't seen any updates for a while so hopefully this is still in the works.

naviathan Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 It's been posted a long time ago. I don't think this guy will update the site, if he even finishes the project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbk240z Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 This guy has skillz! The Toyota 2000GT he did was great. I hope he finishes the 240Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoov100 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I spy a white 240z on the other side of the fence in this pic. (and possible an s30 shell next to it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Juday Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Shouldn't this thread be titled "Aluminum 240Z door skin"? Not to fault the fabricator, he is extremely talented. But it looks like the project has been abandoned early. If I'm wrong please correct me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srgunz Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Upon reading further, I see where he says he has recieved an order to build one aluminun 240Z for the Datsun heritage museum in California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURLEIGH Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 His gloves are on backwards. Really? Looks like they are just studded on both sides to me... No doubt this guy has skilz though!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tfreer85 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Having spoken to this guy several times, he is really a nice guy. He speaks very limited English and has limited computer skills. With that being said, he's offered me to come by and check out his shop, I've just never had the time. I haven't heard from him in a while, but he gets some very high end customers. From when I've spoken with him, its more for the passion of the car than for the time or money involved. Just my .02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdizzy204 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Im pretty sure he is an elderly japanese man who probably prefers building the shells as opposed to updating his website. I am sure he does not need the website to get business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
