Keyser Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Good evening one and all pull up you chairs and read on in disbelief as once again I take you on a journey down that O so familiar road. I have a terminal case of Zeditis (for which alas there is no cure) Once again it has made me take leave of my senses and it is now Official I am now the owner of yet another 350z! The story starts a 8 months ago by another member can be seen here http://www.350z-uk.c...updated-010912/ Through no fault of his own family and personal circumstances have meant Jon is unable to finish the project at the moment, he then somehow managed to subliminally send me a message to which I promptly used the more traditional PM system to reply to and arrangements were made. Nice to meet you today Jon hope things are on the up mate Back to the story - So the ZedShed crew were poised for another road trip and after pumping a marathon 12 hours into a trip to the Grasshopper on Saturday, I overslept I eventually dragged myself out of bed and picked up Tonto from his place and with the trailer hooked up away we went. We arrived around lunch time and loaded up the latest addition to the family a 2002 JDM. The biggest mistake I made was getting one in Sunset 'cause Buster has one that colour!!!! So the 3 hour journey back saw him in the passenger seat casting his beady eye over the new beauty on the trailer saying "can I have the bumper?" "can I have the bumper?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" "Can I?" I lasted about 5 miles - Yes you can "SWAP" the bumpers - "Can we do it today?" "Can we do it today?" "Can we do it today?" "Can we do it today?" Sorry Bob I used a small amount of poetic licence (very small amount!!) Anyway we eventually got back to the ZedShed - some pics 25 minutes after landing - 1 Hour 30 mins after touchdown 2 hours That should keep him off her for a bit Tucked up behind the gates in case he comes back later. The Project - A few people have already asked "what are you going to do with this one?" Well the truth is I don't know, possibilities are 1. Mrs Keyser's new car (more on this below) 2. Finish the build MOT her and sell her on via the forum at cost price (just to save another Zed) 3. Finish the build and spray her Blue , sell her on via the forum to really annoy Buster 4. Finish the build and spray her Yellow, sell her on via the forum to really annoy Mrs Buster 5. Get a few of us together and make a track whore out of her 6. Any other suggestions taken under consideration. There is a possibility that rather than taking the better half's Zed off the road and doing all the things we have planned for her, we could restore this one, paint it the colour of choice and then the good lady wife can take possession and I could then roll her current Zed in for the restoration treatment, it's all to be decided and not much will really happen until the Mini build is finished. So that's goodnight from me and goodnight from him.................................. Edited January 26, 2013 by Keyser 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
