Sorry don't mean to speak out of turn, but not keen on the look of this car, each to their own I guess.
Hey bud some people may not have liked the look of a sam but each to their own as you say

Sure most would agree with that, they are just too scared to admit it .
Very constructive comment Gwyn to your fellow Z Club Member who has completed their car after 17 years off the road!! Well done!
I think Ian's Z is a master piece apart from 2 things, that is the rear lights & the all in one bumper air dam thingie (feel both of these really would affect the value of the car) & they certainly affect the looks of it in my opinion, change those it would probably be one of the most desirable & best looking Z's in the country.

Somehow the rear end just looks a little bare to me personally and the lights look a bit like you've run out of idea's and popped in to your nearest halfords and picked up a set of trailer lights
I don't like any wheels with bare hubs
.
Quite the contrary, took 3 months to get hold of the rear lights (originals). For me the point was to tidy up the rear. If you go bumper less, all you have showing are the pressed sections to accommodate the bumper and holes in the rear. The whole rear end is hand-made, and a credit to the maker..Also, I wanted the car on the road, rather than sitting back in the paint shop again..
And the rear lights...this is something I came up with 17yrs ago, and I still like. but it is trying something different, which is what car mods are all about. No one spotted the rear wing then?
As for value, just say it is valued a lot higher than I thought it would be.
Sorry Ian it was meant very tongue in cheek .
the rear is a 17 year old whim - knew I seen it before

I know Rob, but I knew Sean would be along
That's it - the rear is a 17 year old whim - knew I seen it before.
No you have not. Car never been on the road with this.
I would answer your other points, but you are just being your normal picky self as you do with every other z (as if your point/z is gospel)..as I have said before, things to go/up-grades coming. It is not finished.
....and we haven't heard yet how she drives, how did the rolling road session go - details of driving impressions please - we've all been following this thread and it's gone...........flop !..........things to go/up-grades coming. It is not finished.
I don't understand - you've been meticulous and taken your time and (IMHO) have rushed it to get it on the road..........
Is it insured and on the road now then Ian? If so, what's the scoop? Is it riding nicely, responsive off the throttle etc...
