That is indeed Frank and Cliff! Cliff is in the picture. They use to work with my dad at his garage so have been friends for a long time .

Do you know them?

Only in casual passing chat years ago at some drag events,(i seem to have a penchant for recognising metal over faces normally)i was building myself a pop for the Outlaw series, but life took a different turn. There's a few youtubes of his cars on net if you weren't already aware.

Not seen many videos of Cliff racing but I go to see him from time to time. I saw the video of Frank upside down at the bulldog bash. Made us all chuckle!

Lots of cutting to be done....which I'm not looking forward too!

Cheers Moggy, Im really looking forward to getting it in some paint to tidy it all up BUT I fear it will be a waste of time because I still need to cut the rear arches out to suit whatever wheels I use on the back...

Someone could be an ABSOLUTE hero if they fancied lending me some 9-10J wheels that fit the 240Z standard hubs? I'll be using the 5 stud modern motorsport hubs in the long run but at least I can mark up where the arches need cutting and welding so I can get her painted...

I really love the 240Z dash with the centre gauges so I'm trying my best to keep it!

 

[Throttleton]

Yeah they are about as cool as you get. We can make the dash fit your cage and keep all the clocks........

Little bit of an update...

Picked the car up saturday and got her home safely. Also bought a T56 box not long ago...not sure if I mentioned it on the other page.

And home..

Has anyone got one of those front valances/air spoilers that Richie P has for sale or know where I can get one? Same as this:

 

[IbanezDan51]

Not sure why but I can't post a wanted ad up.

If anyone has a front diff mount for an R200 diff that will fit my car can you let me know?

Also a moustache bar and rear transverse link mount would be handy (depending on price).

Thanks!
