Nice :tup:
I thought it was funny to see the guy grinding the chassis wearing just shalwar kameez. I'd expect to see that in Pakistan, but I guess they do it in Dubai too :icon17: |

Engine painting
Parts removed http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/f8d07456.jpg All parts were cleaned, then primed with a special primer then heat resistant paint was applied and a final high temp clearcoat. It should last for a while I hope. The combo is of red, black and silver. http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/4473c958.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/ee09a33a.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/1cdde113.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/1163dac3.jpg http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...z/31923abd.jpg More pictures coming soon |
Hope enjoy it after you're done because i know a lot of people usually sell it off after they've completed a project

Did you sell the 370z or did you keep it? You are building a pretty stout stable if I do say so myself. One of these days, I will find a 240z worth resurrecting............
