Not sure how you get a pic on from a phone as I use my laptop, hey I'm all for what you are doing and I am also planning on building one as I am a panel beater and painter, one sold on ebay recently for 48k

 

[T21cky]

Was nice but not out of the reaches of all you clever car chaps out there!

Hi and welcome from Surrey, can't help with uploading pictures from your phone. I always post from my laptop. if I need a phone photo, I
e mail it to myself and go from there.

 

[T21cky]

Thanks mwpe, can't understand it because I've just added an avatar pic no probs??!

Ha, something's just worked!

Well what I was saying above is as I'm a joiner the car will prob end up like this!

 

[T21cky]

Hey Ricky, just home from pub. Well mate you've uploaded a picture. That's a good looking kit you're building so we'll be looking forwards to your progress. Where are you located.

Tony.

ps. My boy is a wood butcher too.

 

[oldcarman]

Welcome from Canada !! All the panels just unbolt so don't need to be cut off and can be salvaged and sold off to off set your project!! JIM

 

[T21cky]

Hi t tony I'm up in yorkshire


This is the plan but possibly in mid metallic grey, red wine interior and matching hood, wire wheels and white wall tyres but I'll have to see

 

[t-tony]

Gonna be a great build mate, enjoy. Any info you need just shout up on here.

Tony.

 

[T21cky]

Cheers tony, what I do need help with most of all is what kind of wire wheels can I make fit, I'm not keen on the £2k cost that the kit manufacturer could supply......

I think the biggest issue you will come up against is the fact that most, if not all, of the old school cars which wore these type of wheels were only 4 stud/bolt fixings. Obviously the Z had 5 , I would look through the forums on here for the people doing these builds and see what they're doing, @Sir Percival , @Tim beard to name but two. Good luck mate, I do like wire wheels, just finished a rear brake rebuild on a mates Midget which had these on. There's a member on here in Hongkong (I think) and I'm sure he has wire wheels on his Z3.

Tony.
