The Z car count seemed to be down in the paddock and infield, possibly due to Covid along with the forecast of rain on Saturday, the most popular day for the Mitty. Here are most of the Z cars I saw today with a couple of Skylines and a 200SX thrown in for fun.

- Roger made custom fittings to simplify and make the lines look great
- Ready to fire the engine. Had to go thru some gyrations to get the oil pump to start pumping oil.
- Fired up & it purrs like a kitten
- UV joints for half shafts installed
- All systems go, its now a running green machine.
- Back to the Body shop for the installation of the fenders, doors, windows, bumpers & hatch.
- Took some time to get all the parts back on but on Oct. 9 I took it out for a spin around the block
- Well the good news its all together, the bad news springs were installed at the wrong locations.
- So back down to RB Import to remove all 4 struct housings and swap the springs.
- RB welded the tailpipe extender in place looks good
- Well more news the left rear toe is off. Currently working on a solution.
- Sure does look pretty.
- Its back at its home after all most 4 years of restorations.

My 1971 240z.
It has the 73 look because the previous owner crashed it in the nineties and here in Portugal Nissan dealer didn't make any kind of effort to give it the original front. But soon it will be restores.
Kobe seiko whells, rear spoiler, wood steering wheel, 5 shifts gearbox (FS5W71B) and some more european extras. -
