A new 260Z is born - Jeffrey R's 260Z

[Ron Earp]

Well, a new 260Z build has started with Jeffrey Roussel pulling is excellently-caged 260Z out of hiding and starting work. We've done a lot of sanding, welding, grinding, patching, and we're hoping to go to paint in a day or two.

Here are a few shots, including one I know my home owners's association will love that has the tub and chassis on dolly with parts strewn all around the yard to dry overnight.

Ron did you have a senior moment while welding?

Nice project.

[Ron Earp]

Naw, that's Jeffrey. I'm the guy taking the pictures. Jeff Young was also over ambling about with Ed the Dog but didn't have pics of either of them.

Ron did you have a senior moment while welding?

Nice project.

Not a senior moment, that was sparks burning the top of my head. The senior moment happen several years ago when I decide to build a Z car rather that by a built and running race car.

All good stuff you guys. I am just jealous that you are outside working on race cars and although it was 50 today the weather supposed to turn into the teens at night this week.

Keep the pics coming of the project.

I wouldn't call it born. More like the egg was taken out of the freezer and fertilized.

I won't call it born until I fire it up and it moves under its own power.
