    Just fantastic, the amount of effort :O I love that you kept the little 300ZX things, the t-tops, the rims. It's a (really) weird twist on the fact that it's a hotrod :p

    We will take some more closer photo`s of the gas system and post them in the next couple of days , the only thing with running straight gas is you need to let the motor idle and get some warmth in the water system when its started from dead cold the gas converter needs heat to covert the liquid gas to vapour , if you just jump in and try and drive it with rev`s first up it will stall the liquid gas is freezing the system up , you only need a little heat for the system to work fine .

    Yes they are , they were the right shape and the fact we had a whole roof hanging on the shed wall right were the whole ZX32 roof off our donor car is now hanging waiting for some other project to show up :D and talking all parts ZX did you notice that the out side rear view mirrors are from the ZX too

    this has got to be the coolest thing i've seen done to a zed. what's even more amazing is how well the stuff actually fits together.

    it's so strange looking into a 49 merc yet the inside is a 300ZX we're all used to. mind f**k

    hat tip to you sir.

    Thank you , and i can assure you there was some swearing involved in the project but the inside of the Z looks really good inside the Merc Body and we saved a ZX car that was in limbo .. Lloyd

    Yeah at least now we got the ball rolling for our area & hopefully next time when can get a few more Z owners come along. It's definitely lit a fire under my azz to get some cosmetic work done on our Z!!
