Hi all, this is my first post so il introduce myself!
I'm Luke from Cheltenham, I'm a mechanic and mot tester by trade.
A good friend of mine has a fully restored 260z 2+2, a 240z and until today a 2seater 260z. I say until today because he's given me one free! Also has another 2+2 of which I can use for spares.
The car does need quite a lot of welding but it's definately worth saving, the engine was re built 5 years ago and until today it hadn't been started since. All it needed was some new fuel and a battery and it fired up and purred.
Here's some pictures
I'm not going to undertake the welding work myself as I don't have the time or the skill it deserves! A good friend of mine is a welder by trade and is ace with a tig welder so in the next few weeks the car is going to be left with him to work his magic on it.
My future plans are to keep it fairly standard inside and under the bonnet but I want it to be low and bloody wide so I will most probabily be importing some rediculous wheels in the future.
Any modifications I do carry out I want it to easily be returned to standard.
As I'm new to these I will be asking you all lots of questions so be patient with me!
