Same here, maybe 50k was a low estimate. But if you can do a lot yourself this saves a LOT, Painting is getting more expensive by the year to. It's crazy the prices they ask the paint shops. Last year I did my 70 mustang with a paint shop I know, they charged me 4500 EURO. Other shops asked between 6500-9k

More like 50k EURO here to restore that. Part in the US are a bit cheaper still.

Could be Mart haha, anyhow, no bitumen wouldn't work here, it would be rusted away quicker then I can restore lol

Looks very nice ! Well done. So no Bitumen in the wheel wells and underside ?

The z hype from previous years is over for now, market is kinda stable for a while

Welcome to ZTherapy.com

Carbs are easy AF. lots of people don't understand them anymore these days... adn toss on EFI Have them properly rebuild and they will work fine everytime . Modern gas is not a problem, just don't use ethanol based fuel

" Needs a little paint " reminds me of those quotes from those housing brokers in fancy suits, selling a pile of bricks 200k overpriced lol

Yes time to install the diff arrestor belt mart ! Saves wear on the mount, i'm suprised your mount didn't tear off allready.... I changed my rubber bushing with a poly kit, maybe if you do that it will be less " shaky " at higher speeds lol

" I'm very happy to have the vented quarter. much less problems with maintenance and good ventilation without the back incoming exhaustgasses " Same... I also think that is the reason the factory changed the design 😉

no such things as a series lol. mine should then have series 1 parts but a 2 body lol, but whatever makes people feel good, i really don't mind, for god sake you call it series 0.5 lol

I think you can ship a batch by sea freight, but air it not possible with rattle cans, because explosion danger

I fainted at the second post of pictures... 😵 kidding, but damn that's a nice one for the metal press...

You could buy this in bulk and sell the rest online to z fans in the us and europe 😄

No just a good paste wax. My main goal was polishing the paint, because it was getting dull in certain spots after a wash. Paint job was done 8 years ago. I can always apply new paste wax myself. Not a big fan of modern glass or Ceramic coatings

I brought the z to a car detailer who polished it..it was full of swirls etc. Paint is 8 years old but wel maintained. Looks like new again he did a great job.

Btw... What side of the propeller shaft goes to the transmission?

Yes..

Okay, thanks ! Then the diff I found with it is correct

To be sure ? I assumed the 3.900 diff ratio came behind this FS5C71A and not the 3.36 or 3.75 ( automatic ? ) Does somebody have a manual or something to check it out ?

I finally picked up the A type....5 speed today.... rebuild.. I won't install it this year anyhow, but then I have it laying around, the guy who rebuild is going to retire and close his shop next year, so I was just in time...

Man I love Caddy's ! a 70 coupe de ville is still on my bucket list for a sunday cruiser

not bad ! he really did put in effort. Is this allowed by Ferrari ? Cause usually when you make replica's you have lawyers all over you 😂 It's cool but I wouldn't drive around in a replica lol

My condolences... It's an awfull disease, one of my close relatives has it to, he is in his final stages to, about a month left maybe.. I lost alot of family and relatives to cancer last 15 years sadly.. Take care.. Gr bart

It's a problem with allmost all modern weather stripping kits. Seals used to be softer in the past to. The door slamming thing is also because to hard and thick modern seals, i found a problem for that finding my own seal at an industrial supplier. Currently not a Z but my 70 mustang was painted last year, and the rear glass was out, they put a new seal but it's leaking everywhere when I wash it and even with rain. ordered a more expensive one, going to try again.
