Dave@Deepcar Autobodies

Be nice to have you here Matt, looking like its gonna be another busy day, we had over 95 cars here last time and the weather was great. Dave

Awesome, be good to see you buddy. The dent guy is great, does amzing stuff and great prices too!

Good afternoon folks! Its been a while since we had a get together here at Deepcar Autobodies, and thought its about time! So we are gonna have an open day on 2nd of August. It won't be our first open day... but we are hoping to make it our best so far. So you get an idea of what goes on, here is a video of one of our other days, recorded by DropOutMedia https://vimeo.com/42045967 we had an amazing day but we want more, and a presence from you lot with your fantastic cars would be amazing!!!! So, what are we gonna be doing? Obviously we are going to be trying to showcase some of our work, we are a body shop after all so we are going to be inviting back some of the amazing cars that we have sprayed in the last couple of years for you all to see . Although this video comes from the MX5 scene we do so many varied things it would be nice to get you all in one place. We are also gonna break out the BBQ for people to be eating food off.. in a kind of bring your own burger kinda way. There is also an onsite cafe, they are usually closed on weekends, but they opened up last time, so we will ask them again,, they have a lovely selection in there We have other talents attending too, like our friend the Paintless dent removal guy, to see to any minor injuries your metal may have suffered (he offers fantastic work at reasonable prices), and possibly offering some of our lighter services on the day too, such as power polishes. We also have the Combustionpunks forum attending and they will be offering merch too so we'll have a little stall on site with tshirts, hoodies, keyrings etc. If you have any requests for Z stuff beforehand just give us a shout or joinn up to the forum and speak to Yetidragon, he's a great guy. There will be a graffiti guy working his magic in the workshop and painting a mural for us, so plenty to see. We are also up for suggestions of anything else that will help the days entertainment see what we can sort out Hope to see you all there Dave and Emily

Hiya folks, This year has been a mental busy time for us, and we have had a few lovely Z's through the door now, always a pleasure. So as you lot have been a lovely welcoming bunch we are offering 10% off any repairs and paintwork you may need. Thanks Dave

Dave, keep the ratio mix noted down, they are the closes match I've seen to the original Ray silver. They may be others wanting to referb to OEM spec. Not a problem Martin i've got the mix wrote down

Looking good Martin Really glad you like them Dave

Cheers Buddy

It's a Japanese pitcrew front end but they have stopped making them now, there are similar kits available but no where near as good IMO ,they are really rare and can be expensive if they do come up for sale ,we fell lucky after looking for one for 3 years Dave

That is an awesome colour,slightly darker than our car

We've painted a few shows cars in dark pearl purple and looked awesome, not 350z but i think it will look great, as long as its done properly, Dave

This really is a no brainer mate, its probably my favourite show of the year, 4 days of just having a great time with great people and awesome cars, what on earth could you be doing thats better than this Dave

That would be awesome Gaz, even if i don't buy the 280 the owner will still let me bring it so should be ok Dave

Well we'll be going with our mx5 pitcrew but we have just finished some work for one of our customers on his awesome 280zx which he is trying to sell me, and to be honest i love it and will be trying to raise the funds so i can fetch it to JAE as well, so may well be joining you Dave

You'll be fine buddy, I'm just over 6ft and 17 stone and i'm fine with mine, although get some decent seats where you can sit lower, and becarefull what cage you get as they can restrict the amount of travel on the seat going back and can lose that few inches that makes all the difference., We are thinking about going 3 way on a track car this year as well with the guys at work should be good fun Dave

Hey Buddy Have you had problems with water in the passenger footwell at all, its a common problem that water gets in and floods the footwell where the ecu is situated and can damage the wires going into the ecu, Easy to check, pull back the carpet and you will see a metal panel bolted with 3 or 4 10mm nuts, remove them and you will see the ecu, just check the wires going into it, possibly some of them may be corroded, you can sometimes just clean them up along with the connections and might be ok, if not you may have to source an electrician to check them out. Hope this helps, or at least something to cancel out Dave
