Awesome, thanks Alex.

 

I do have wheels and motor still to upload, where does the archive end? 2007?

2016 back to 1967, though there's issues missing from the earliest decades here and there

Awesome thread guys! 

Will try and contribute a little with some work resources haha, our Wheels and Motor archive has recently gone public almost all the way back to 1953, all that's available can be viewed online.

Here's November 1990 from Wheels, behind the pits with Skiafe at Bathurst

Unfortunately missing the original July 89' piece where the "Godzilla" moniker was born...

I am glad you are liking it Alex as I am the nutter progressively raiding my archives and scanning anything BNR32 GT-R related so it can be viewed by anyone interested in it!  In your line of work though I reckon you would be well versed on what that entails!

I have the original July 1989 Wheels issue so if not uploaded already it will be soon.  Here is a copy of the cover as a tempter.  :-)59b679df9fe6c_WheelsJuly19891Of3.thumb.jpg.beede6af344a1ca922c9fc9db1d379d5.jpg

I will hopefully upload more in a week or so after my 24 hours of LeMons event this weekend.

Here are some pics from Retro round at Sandown over the weekend.IMG_20170916_133559314_HDR.thumb.jpg.8f8a150015e5487f204d97e624578711.jpgIMG_20170916_134050031_HDR.thumb.jpg.c9a2dc6f38dcf55ca41b989fc62c767a.jpgRGP-2017Wilson-Security-Sandown-500Sat-a49v3241.jpg.9a211c95440552873abd4116deee6b49.jpg

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
