Home Built By Jeff

Haha, we get around On the build front, this week I continued the body work on my Z and painted the valve cover.

The Datsun engine is back!! This week I give body work a rest and I get stuck into porting the head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajBXF5x7Dfc&feature=youtu.be

This week is all about the rear end and who doesn't like a nice rear end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKZUX48vs-c

This week I have finally gotten to primer the inside of all the panels, and I get on to tackle the fuel flap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phyHET7xLkw&feature=youtu.be

This week I get to see how my wing came out, and it was not as great as I hoped. https://youtu.be/18DNllQjp0M

This week's adventure was finishing up the booth lighting. I then moved on to rust treating the whole car and painting the epoxy primer. https://youtu.be/NUitHBWySDk

This week I manage to do some home built frame pulling and then I rebuild the spray booth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5iZq18gmu4&feature=youtu.be

This week I get stuck back into repairing the bonnet and then spend a heap of time trying to get the front bar lined up. https://youtu.be/6fjH2aVIhK8

This week I finally finish the roll cage. I also start aligning all of the panels on the Z getting it ready for paint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rs8r-OfKO7c&feature=youtu.be

I am back into the roll cage this week and I finally get it all together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ra-bqBIAMlI&feature=youtu.be

Happy New year guys. I have finally got stuck back into the Z. Continuing to work on the roll cage this week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYvV8Fny_ys

This week I have started to build the roll cage for the Z, but of course in the process I discover more rust.... AAAAaaaarrrghhh!!! https://youtu.be/T0Je59bdHec

This week I have been fighting with the front end, trying to get all of the parts to fit neatly. https://youtu.be/IrmiyR5RYVQ

That is always a mystery I think. Basically, I think people liked the fact that I did every single aspect of the car, stripped it, rust repair, roll cage, painted it, sewed the interior, and stripped the engine and I did it all by myself in my garage. The only part of the video not in my garage was in the machine shop in LA, where the owner let me get on some of the tools and showed me how to do some of it. Also i think the fact that it was 4 minutes, kept it at a watchable length. I thought it would be my most popular video when I was making it, but I never dreamed it would be seen over 14 million times in 6 days. I don't think anyone could predict that.

Back into it after having my 911 build video go viral with over 11 million views in the first 5 days. This week it is time to fit some wheel arch flares to my Z. https://youtu.be/wUU_RbKB0B8

This week I gave paint stripper another go, and it works much better if it there are not 20 layers of paint and bog. The whole car is almost rust free now, just a couple of small bits to go. https://youtu.be/ahWcxJTxH1E

This week I finally finish repairing all of the rust damage on my doors. Getting there slowly. https://youtu.be/fymqcDQDGxI

This week I have been back at it, cutting rust out of these doors. I am quite happy with how the repairs are coming along, but it is so time consuming. https://youtu.be/y9y4rWSP_OY

This week I work away at finishing that terrible door. It is a lot of rust and a lot of work, but I am stubborn enough to keep at it. https://youtu.be/ZvTs-PMZolE

Are my 240Z's doors completely rusted out and junk? They have been covered up with a mountain of bog and paint, so this week I strip them down and see if I can save them. https://youtu.be/hBSwD9SqgdU

I am actually in the Southern Highlands, just easier to say on an international scale that I am in Sydney

Thanks guys. That has been set aside while I am waiting on all of mu custom engine parts for the US. As soon as I get them I will get back onto it and finish it up.

This week I stripped down my P90a head to see what I am working with. I also tackled my most difficult rust repairs to date. https://youtu.be/tl9fe8yd1z8

This week I tear down the bottom end of my L28 and repair some rust holes in my front cowl. https://youtu.be/wzmXpO2KXnM

This week I tackle stretched sheet metal with the bonnet repairs, and I start pulling apart the engine. https://youtu.be/8A6NoBElz44
