Hi friends,
Here I come again to show some updates ... because I'm on vacation Z is growing with another rhythm, but still go slow ... Mr. Victory is enjoying holidays ... In the last 3 days I have cleaned more pieces than in a year of restoration !!! bolts, nuts, washers ... clean, polish, paint ... the luck is that as I was the one who disassembled the car and got everything labeled... in the midst of my disorganization is not going badly...so far… At the moment I am waiting for the pieces of the galvanized process, they must arrive on Wednesday and unexpectedly I have to buy some pieces, I am missing two details that possibly the car no longer had, the central plate of the license plate and two black aluminium scuff plates that are in the inside the car. Possibly they were removed by the previous owner. The mechanics should come in January and until then we will build what we can !!! Let's go to the photos: After a cleaning and a polishing were very good! After it was applied with new screws and new rubbers, the old pieces were miserable. https://i.postimg.cc/Y0mXLD95/IMG-20181220-153948.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/50r70Wx5/IMG-20181220-154850.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/m2HqPk1P/IMG-20181220-163726.jpg In this photo we can see the missing part ... Let’s see if I can find one quickly! https://i.postimg.cc/htRYTnVp/IMG-20181220-165017.jpg I also installed the windscreen wiper motor. Tough task, I never thought it would take that long. I was afraid to scratch the car ... eheheeh https://i.postimg.cc/QtCYhdrx/IMG-20181220-165558.jpg The door locks were painted in the old car colour, I still thought of having zinc, but chrome is funnier and the result is very curious ... I like it !!! https://i.postimg.cc/DmkxrQ48/IMG-20181220-170316.jpg Here already applied ... https://i.postimg.cc/wj5GkrVH/IMG-20181220-173818.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/d0qSN9HC/IMG-20181220-174241.jpg The Z hook was in need of a good turn ... https://i.postimg.cc/T3CHS4y6/IMG-20181217-162622.jpg They were like this ... https://i.postimg.cc/nrbdB8Wv/IMG-20181220-110711.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/8kMXD5Fw/IMG-20181220-110715.jpg Here applied on place... https://i.postimg.cc/ZKLfBMxd/IMG-20181220-132546.jpg [img] https://i.postimg.cc/VkGD40Ts/IMG-20181220-132549.jpg I opened two new parts ... the tailgate supports ... https://i.postimg.cc/rs1f9n67/IMG-20181217-173812.jpg [img] https://i.postimg.cc/TYx7P6gx/IMG-20181217-174404.jpg [img] https://i.postimg.cc/Jz4pb5pd/IMG-20181217-174421.jpg |

Hi again!
Another great weekend!! The Z is getting shape!!! And all the weekend was dedicated to it! Now it looks like a Z…I’m very happy with all the results! But it’s a hard car to work!!!Too many bolts and tunning around the parts! I started with the lower and center valances, then the headlights and finally the surroundings.~ On the lights, my car is from 2/71 and had the 3rd series front, now I’m restoring it to the original shape. Now I placed the original Toshiba headlights and get rid of the wires excess, even the lamps!!! After a deep cleaning all went simple and clear! I’m waiting for the test… About the grill, I’ll keep the original one, but I don’t know if I will put the 432 instead! But only for the aesthetic reason! Let’s see the photos…. The sill plates were on the shop and I decides to install them! These ones are original, second hand, because the new ones from Nissan are just aluminium made, and these ones are covered with vinil with the same pattern as the seats and interior plastic covers! https://i.postimg.cc/BQw80JGn/IMG-20190209-151327.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/6pky8zqs/IMG-20190209-151339.jpg The headlghts…before… https://i.postimg.cc/G2zFPkwL/IMG-20190209-120033.jpg [img]https://i.postimg.cc/FsYycdPv/IMG-20190209-120041.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/C5QbXSx9/IMG-20190209-120045.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/W4wgjM4G/IMG-20190209-154010.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/15bpKmTq/IMG-20190209-155437.jpg In the end…. https://i.postimg.cc/Dy4GmVZy/IMG-20190209-181608.jpg Valances… https://i.postimg.cc/XvbdT2nN/IMG-20190209-162057.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/NjTRChqP/IMG-20190209-162914.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/MTZRGvch/IMG-20190209-163209.jpg Installed… https://i.postimg.cc/wvWNRgL3/IMG-20190209-173628.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/kGBbxzvs/IMG-20190209-173632.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/gjQ64sMW/IMG-20190209-173638.jpg |

Hi folks,
Here are some up-grades on the Z. I’m getting tired…the Z has so many detailZ…and I need to ride the car…I know when the resto will be concluded the effort will be forgotten but until then… On the past 2 weeks we have done some body work and assemble mostly structures on doors, bumpers and small details. We had an issue with the front windshield, perhaps I’ve to look for a new one, and on the rear hatch glass in order to avoid problems, I bought a new rubber from Nissan. The tunning on panels is very hard to do, on my B110 was simple and easy, but not this one…even the locks aren’t closing totally, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong…well…all will be solved…I think!!! Tomorrow the engine and gear box will be mounted and hope that on Saturday will be running…let’s see. To finish some trouble, the electric system has to be redone too… Let’s see the upgrades… Assembling the bumpers… Side rubbers. https://i.postimg.cc/8zWZL57z/IMG-20190220-101738.jpg Schuteons and rubbers. https://i.postimg.cc/nzVT8G0X/IMG-20190302-110538.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/hvfrvPFg/IMG-20190302-110846.jpg Ready to fit… https://i.postimg.cc/Fz8xL5mS/IMG-20190302-112055.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/9XnbSTTf/IMG-20190302-112356.jpg On the car. https://i.postimg.cc/9Q3pXhL5/IMG-20190302-125131.jpg Before we had put in place the front lip. https://i.postimg.cc/8CSt4SvB/IMG-20190302-103011.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/wMvWNQmC/IMG-20190302-103019.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/CL9vZDL2/IMG-20190302-104942.jpg Now the right door…. https://i.postimg.cc/rpMNW96f/IMG-20190302-143123.jpg New handles… https://i.postimg.cc/xd5yPbnn/IMG-20190302-143214.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/R07bxFmD/IMG-20190202-114105.jpg Locks and handles… https://i.postimg.cc/FRKbCsHc/IMG-20190302-154557.jpg Before we placed the window some care was took no the top of the doors… https://i.postimg.cc/nryvL4YY/IMG-20190304-122652.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/L8BzHZqL/IMG-20190304-122703.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/sxQYy6Sg/IMG-20190304-115231.jpg |

There is a little issue, I guess easy to solve, my Z had the 3rd series center console, but it wasn’t correct, and when I tried this one, the series ½ the bolts miss the bracket for 4 cm’s. Is the center console small? Something isn’t right for sure, but I’ll try to check what’s going wrong. Have you changed the center console? What differences can we find on mounting the screws? I love this “downgrade” to the original… Here it is… https://i.postimg.cc/yY0Q2jHT/IMG-20190304-162743.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/y8Pf8NWg/IMG-20190304-164603.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/rwcnT4y2/IMG-20190304-165915.jpg Almost… https://i.postimg.cc/d0xCVMFc/IMG-20190302-135105.jpg Now is going to sleep until receive her “heart” again… https://i.postimg.cc/CKxcBVfv/IMG-20190304-171218.jpg Hope you enjoy it.

Hi everybody!
Here I am on the Easter holyday…I’m tired fo working on the car…but is almost done. I hope the car will be ready soon! At least It is working, it brakes and I’ve tried it…almost 2 years since the beginning of the resto. At this moment there are only small details to finish like the interior, centre console and many many more other parts…some are on its way! Aside a broken windshield, a broken door during the assembling, it’s time to relax and make everything carefully…this is such a puzzle!!! The rubbers got installed and the windshield and hatch were fitted…I had to buy original rubbers…the ones from precision brand weren’t as good as they said! On the rear hatch it misses for 2cm each side, and on the front the gap was huge on the upper right. Tuning the hood was easy…but damn…the door latch is tricky as hell!!! It didn’t close until I discover that the inside handle and its main cable has some adjustment. I was desperate to lock the door, the driver’s side only…I hope now all works for life,,,ahahaha… Let’s wait for the end of the resto…meanwhile… This was the starting point 1 month ago, last time I worked on it https://i.postimg.cc/Dwbw6LvQ/IMG-20190304-133247.jpg Centre console https://i.postimg.cc/TwQd1c0x/IMG-20190304-165940.jpg Changing shop… https://i.postimg.cc/wTn61MX1/IMG-20190306-141110.jpg The day was very cloudy and even the car is outside, the colour doesn’t shine as it should be… https://i.postimg.cc/wT1qxLmK/IMG-20190306-141612.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/3xp3mh1n/IMG-20190306-141622.jpg L24 on the way… https://i.postimg.cc/7PsPymbM/IMG-20190306-143510.jpg Easy…right… https://i.postimg.cc/nrzHDQSD/IMG-20190306-150416.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/mDTZTnQV/IMG-20190306-151817.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/cCbdM4P5/IMG-20190306-152734.jpg Then we assemble the differential, fluids, bolts and substitute all the rubbers. https://i.postimg.cc/tgjpzcmy/IMG-20190306-160032.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/FKVmCx2S/IMG-20190306-160100.jpg Final result…but the starter will be replaced…this one is stopping once in a while… https://i.postimg.cc/PxfHgwjR/IMG-20190306-171741.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/9Mx2CQXF/IMG-20190306-175412.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/HnVgx1j0/IMG-20190306-180810.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/nrgt9SQy/IMG-20190313-102948.jpg The electric system…now getting back to 71…I think the car is very happy…agagagag https://i.postimg.cc/CLBPxxMr/IMG-20190412-105410.jpg |

Hi again!
The car runs and drives very good…but I’m moving it to another shop for the past details. The tunings will not be deep, but will consist in verifying the electrical system with the addition of new connectors, recovering a corner on the dash, applying the centre console, tuning the front bumpers and correcting the leather parts on the back! The wheels will be recovered into the original charcoal colour! These works will make the car looks better and will make me rest fine…I’m tired of waiting… Let’s go to the works: Interior glass trim. https://i.postimg.cc/Y2g5Zwmy/IMG-20190416-170549.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/mrJnpdZs/IMG-20190417-152323.jpg Hood latch https://i.postimg.cc/L84GJYQr/IMG-20190416-174328.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/qvmSyJ9g/IMG-20190416-180922.jpg Almos tone hour to aplly the mirror… https://i.postimg.cc/sD4tf9mY/IMG-20190417-143800.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/HxMhqQj7/IMG-20190417-182433.jpg Gearbox insulator applied… https://i.postimg.cc/hvq5cf7Z/IMG-20190417-154209.jpg New interiors…worked very good!!! https://i.postimg.cc/8cBn5NRp/IMG-20190419-172746.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/k5BZcrms/IMG-20190419-172908.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/MKqFLfwv/IMG-20190419-174519.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/G2vX7dSF/IMG-20190419-174941.jpg Some details… https://i.postimg.cc/HLqS9V3W/IMG-20190518-144444.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/8CJKvhRn/IMG-20190518-150632.jpg |

That is a beautiful car. And thanks for keeping it real with a Datsun engine instead of desecrating it with an LS swap.

Hi friends,
The Z is still on the mechanic, I think this year, 2019, will finish the resto! I hope!!!ahahahha The ca ris almost done, the exceptions are related to some metal work and the systems that have to be revisioned like the brake system, fuel system. The interiors need some detail attention and that’s it…sound a bit like quick things, but it’s not! But the car already has the MOT and left the garage for a marriage…ahahahah… Let’s see the photos… Regards Mário The car waiting for the original wheels…still watanabe… https://i.postimg.cc/WbrzwPTn/IMG-20191206-WA0005.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Vk867HNc/IMG-20191206-WA0009.jpg Preparing the centre caps for the Kobe Seiko wheels… https://i.postimg.cc/3xm8mjjb/IMG-20191219-183728.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/431XFJS6/IMG-20191219-185006.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/2y1m6n8G/IMG-20191219-232645.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/7Z8DHGv1/IMG-20191219-232647.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/ZKy4zPQK/IMG-20191219-233127.jpg Changing to the original shape! https://i.postimg.cc/QCvDWVF3/IMG-20191220-143226.jpg MOT…nothing to say…zero problems… https://i.postimg.cc/gc7m7tNT/IMG-20191220-175055.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/Jn6MMpmt/IMG-20191220-181357.jpg |
