Hi V12 Horse, Maybe my wife doesn´t really understand what a Silvia is, it´s most likely that she sees it as another moneypit that will keep her husband in the garage for the next couple of years !!! Hope to get the Silvia into the body shop in September to have the car painted. I´ve already scrapped off all the paint & body filler from the outer bosdy panels. All I´ve got do know is do the same underneath, knock out all the dents & lead load.

Hi everybody, I got the car a few days ago. I´m a really lucky bas***d to own such a rarity. As I get into the restoration I post more photos. Regards Symon

Hi Guys,´ It doesn´t really matter were I go in my Z as long as I go. Down to the diy store or do 1500 kms in a day. It´s all fine behind the wheel of my 260Z.

Hi 1 bravo 6 I always thought that between 61 & 70 that a woman is like Siberia. Everybody knows where it is but nobody wants to visit !

MY 260Z is parked in a 4 car garage under my house. It shares space with my MG TD ( 182 bhp flyer ) & in a couple of weeks a CSP311 Silvia. My wife parks her Honda HRV in the middle of them all. Out side I´ve got my Toyota Hilux 4x4. To make room for the Silvia I had to sell my 1928 4 1/2 litre Bentley as my wife wouldn´t let me take up her parking space with the Silvia, so it had to go.

Yes I bet your head is still suffering. -
This was just the start of the mountain pass, but as it was raining hard & b****y cold it didn´t get out of the car for more photos ! The image of Old Number 5 ( one of the feature cars this month ) in typical mountain scenery, a load exhaust note & plenty of speed was quite emotional ! It was well worth the trip just to see the car in action. -
Yes there was a lot a snow. I´m sure the snow ploughs has a hard time clearing the road !I think the photo was taken on the Great St Bernard pass. I was an incredible experience driving through 5 -6 metre walls of snow. -
If I remember rightly this is a ski resort calles Claviere right on the Italian / French border. It will be one of the venues for the 2006 Turin winter games. -
we even had Nissan officials looking after us -

Hi Gema, I´ve spent many a happy hour using Nitromors Paint stipper. I´m not sure if it is enviromentally friendy but it does a good job & doesn´t attack chrome. When I attack my 260Z paint in the autumn I´ll be using it. Not sure you can buy Nitromors in the States !
