I might be exaggerating on the couple weeks, but he did do amazing work and it always seemed like it didn't take very long. You might want to think about joining the Gateway Z Club. They usually have some pretty good hook ups for parts and discounts at two or three Nissan dealers in the St Louis area.

 

yea some take longer, some are shorter. so how can i look into the gateway z club?

Hey!!! Fellow STL guys! Awesome! I'm totally going to join the Gateway Z Club. I'm down in Festus.

Its close to naked

 

Welcome to the forum. Impressed to see you're saving this Z. Keep us posted on it's progress, should be really interesting.

 

Ahhh you're gonna need more than an exhaust and a shift ****

 

lol yes i will! surprisingly i have most of the parts needed already, but we will see whats missing further down the road. and yes, i still need exhaust and a shift ****

 

$6,600 :0 That seems a little high. I can't even sell my 05 with 50k miles for $15,000.

 

Yea it was a risk for sure. But i think were gonna still come out significantly ahead. I wont mind letting you guys know what it turns out to be in the end

 

I've got a stock exhaust sitting in my garage but I'm in NY.

 

Keep us posted with pics..and info...

Good luck with the work ahead!!

thank you sir! its a pretty roughed up one, but it can definitely be repaired. it should go into the "frame shop" sometime next week for the unibody work. then it will be piecing everything back together and any painting we have left.

 

how the hell is he going to fix that quarter panel?

 

we dont fix it, we chop it off and replace it

 

exactly...

 

Good luck on the repair. In for pics. This would be a fun project and does not look to bad, like Jason stated, I have seen worse.

 

Update on pictures!!


Does it look better or worse?




GUTTED!
