Evening all!
I have, with my heart not my head, after looking around for several weeks and pretty much deciding a Z was probably out my price range, just agreed the purchase of taxed and tested but decidedly rough 260 2-seater. Collecting it on Friday. I worked in a bodyshop for a couple years when I left school so I know how to weld (or I did over a decade ago) but mechanically I am, frankly, fairly clueless. And right now I don't even own a jack. But, you have to start somewhere, right?
So, long story short, you will probably getting swiftly fed up of numerous HELP type threads from me over the next few weeks and months as I try and get this thing into better shape. I want to drive it not just work in it, so plan is a sort of gentle rolling restoration.
Will stick some pics up when I get it home!
Cheers,
Tim
