ziptied z: fbook
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/03/fbook.html
Wednesday, March 4, 2015. Https:/ www.facebook.com/pages/Last-Men-Standing/802077393196225. Started a fbook page for the cars. A couple good friends are admins and may also be posting their own builds if they get out of the garage. I also thought it was a good idea since I wouldn't have to open up my personal page and could now share photos without having to do it on another group's page. It also keeps my personal page somewhat more clear of car fanaticism. Somewhat. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

ziptied z: s13 boot
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/08/s13-boot.html
Saturday, August 8, 2015. Before I even get into the real damage, this is just one repair I would be taking care of in the next few months. As all s13's with OEM wings, water comes to rest between it and the truck lid, causing rust. Mine was no exception. I ripped it off the car. I had to do something and get away from the snow. If you ever need S-chassis parts, talk to the friendly guys at NSP in Spartanburg. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). S13 up-side-down sand and paint. S14a bonnet and boot.

ziptied z: goon in the wild
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/08/goon-in-wild.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. Goon in the wild. Albeit rare, I do see other Datsun's around, and this day was no exception. She still had what I can only assume was the original dealer sticker! Still at home in SC. I spoke with the shop and the owner wanted a little more than I wanted to spend, even though I'm sure it would be a great deal for the next owner. Great seeing these being driven. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). S13 up-side-down sand and paint. S14a bonnet and boot. S13 sand and paint.

ziptied z: garage distractions
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/08/garage-distractions.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Filled the washer reservoir, which then drained in a day. As it turned out, the s13 has the same issue. I believe customs broke both reservoirs during entry and drained all contents. I really have no idea what I was doing here, but racecar? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

ziptied z: s13 final damages
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/08/s13-final-damages.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. What would you do? I dreaded even approaching the garage at this point. The wing outside was a foreboding warning as to what was within. There were various rips and tears towards the rear of the transmission tunnel near the e-brake assembly which I could only surmise was from the driveshaft finally bending under the extreme loads. The mid-bearing mounts were literally torn from the chassis. Originally I was optimistically hoping not to remove the main dash, but the dash was to...

ziptied z: s13 covered
http://ziptiedz.blogspot.com/2015/08/s13-covered.html
Thursday, August 6, 2015. It's been a while since I've mentioned the other 200sx, but I've got a few more work photos of the newer one first. Two UK v5's, two UKDM S-chassis. Until this point I parked her behind the house as I needed the garage space to get the s14a kicking and screaming. Once this and the garage remodeling was completed, almost a year after moving, it was time to move the s13 inside and start repairing her over the winter. Thankfully, this was just in time before another snowfall. Aweso...
