Did a little work on her today, redid the valve cover gasket, new plugs again, added stainless hose coverings to all the rubber hoses, and on the interior a new leather shift boot (had none) and "race" style pedals.

body work still in progress and will be for awhile...

 

I am going to redo my Valve cover when the weather warms so I can paint. I have to also wait til I have more money to put on the braided hoses. I put on the leather shift **** last year. I cut 3 inches off the shifter to make the **** look better. Until I get a short throw shifter. I put Miata seat in my Z and they look fine. I will take somes pics later. The body work I am hoping to have done by March.
Your car is looking nice.

 

What did you use to cab the AFM boot? I have everything else capped except that.

 

If thats the big one the air reg went to then i used a plastic plug with some gasket sealant and topped off with a tight wrap of electrical tape so it don't blow out easy in case of backfires.
If you mean the sleeve between the air meter and the throttle i replaced it with some larger air tubing on acount of it being rotten.
Have to tackle the rear brakes next, one is leaking.
Might wait till i get a Chilton's to go with the Haynes.

 

The rear brakes are pretty straight forward if you have ever done drum brakes.

 

here are some pics of my Z.
This link will take you to my web site then just click on pictures.

 

I like your front spoiler, is it fiberglass?

 

hey allmyzs. you still have parts for sale like it says? I need the front windshield trim for mine, the chrome part.

 

Sorry man dont have that. I ahve a overflow bottlr, Radiator 2 access panels, 2 AFM,s, an AC conpressor. And marker lights, ZX tail lights. and some other stuff.

 

how much for the overflow bottle, mine seems to be mia

 

I tell you what when I can get to ti I will send it to you. All I ask is you pay for shipping. The reason is that its winter right now so all the kids toys and crap are in the garage with my Z. I cant get to the box I need.

 

no worrie's, thanks dude!

 

$10 off ebay, no one else bid, they plug right in no mods.

 

starting on the body work now, this is why it was $400

 

number 2

 

number 3

 

number 4
my 1st time doing body work, all these are getting more sanding or bondo and most some glazing

 

Well I really hate body work. I am just taking mine in to be redone. I dont have that much damage. I just need paint.

 

Bondo Queen, Bondo Queen, gonna build me a Bondo Queen...

Anywho its better then letting the rust win...and scratch one more Z.....

And since body work is mostly labor which i decided to throw in for free 'cause keeps me off the streets....lol

 

Now that is a positive attitude. good job. Let me know how it turns out. Dont forget lots of pictures for the books, like before during and after.

 

Somedays i switch off bodywork to do some other needed chores, took apart passenger strut and replaced the gas shock and oil bath, cleaned and painted the spring yellow and the suspension parts flat black. Going to get new calipers and get the rotors turned also.
