Fate Of The FrankenZ - Datsun 280z Project

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Today we finally dive into the 280z shell for the first time since sandblasting. Do we scrap it or do we build it???

    I think your lighting seems good. I use a GoPro 7 for all my videos, it definitely suffers in low light. I have been looking at the Osmo Pocket or Pocket 2, the 360 cameras seem cool for a garage camera as well. Just like you likely though, paying a ton for several cameras isn't in the cards.

    Dying to see this car finished because I was unbelievably jealous when he had it. I think I'm being roped in to help with wiring when it gets to that stage. Did a 240z many years ago and the wiring in that was a nightmare, so I both am and am not looking forward to it in equal measures.

    When Liam said roped in he meant we will drop it off at yours and collect 2 weeks later with wiring done 🤣🤣 - Ste

    The whole shell looks like dent central, will you be pulling the dents or just straight filling them?

    Tell me something out of interest.... how long ( and how many people) did it take to strip it down ( roughly) for the sandblasting

  • @TheDIYTuners

    @TheDIYTuners

    So the strip down was the quick and easy bit really. I'd say we spent around 20 hrs with 2 people stripping the car down.
