I finished fitting the fenders and attached them with Dzus fasteners. A little more trimming and they are ready for paint!

That is looking great (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)

I like to see old race cars that are still running in races and not just in collections or exhibitions.

Just finishing up before the race on Sunday

A rundown of the work done:
Removed front and rear hinges and pinned the hood and rear deck lid, this actually removed 10 lbs!
Changed the rear deck lid to a lighter fiberglass lid, removed 6 lbs.
Changed the rear bumper to a lighter unit, removed 4 lbs.
The new rear quarter panels are 6 lbs lighter.
Removed part of the steel quarter panels and lost another 12 lbs
and I lost 20 lbs this winter!

Looking awesome Glenn! What steam rollers do you plan on putting back there?

Hey does Glenn have a street legal 914 in the stable to bring out if Garold has his BBQ this summer?
Hope you do well this weekend!

I ran fastest lap in practice and only tenth of a second slower in qualifying.

I was stuck behind a Cobra and couldn’t get by him, he was slow in the turns and fast on the straights. The 280Z started to pull away (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
