I recently purchased a 1975 240z, which has been off the road in a barn since 1985. It is now in a different barn, but dry and well protected. It was checked by Fourways Engineering (before I bought it) and needs a total refurbishment, but is basically sound.
I can't repair it myself, as the work is too extensive and I don't have time (though I would love to). I need advice on whether i should sent to Fourways (my original plan) or use a local restorer (in Cumbria), as I plan to have my son do work experience restoring the car, and it would help if it were local. I am concerned about sourcing of parts (notably front headlight assemblies, and interior trim) more than quality of repair, as the local guy is good. Is there anyone you would recommend to give advice here?
I'm not a member yet, but will join when I start the repair work.
