Well just to let people know that JMS will be back in the next few months. It will be under new MANAGMENT but they have new stock coming in late this month and should be opening next month.

It is on the JMS web site.

I thought it got sold a long white back? At least a year.

im assuming your talking bout the white gtr33 of their's. If so, im sure it did but was just asking if n1gtr33 owns it now. As ive seen the exact same one all the time in the unley area when im down there. Only thing that it was missing are the stickers.

Quote from a user from ns.com

"Hey Guys

Well here is everthing explained in black and white.

The JMS Name and web address where bought by a mate of mine here in Gawler who has been doing small import stuff for years and was involved with JMS back in the early days. His name is Ben Stack his dad Bernie Stack is involved in alot of the classic rallies here in SA and the Targa tasman. Bernie is also a owner of Gawler Bodyworks Crash Repairers. Bernie also owns our building where i work.

Ben will be operating just as a web based company for the time being and slowly build himself up. I will be helping him out with a few things here and there as basically he is going to operate out of our workshop here at GraphiX.

Ben has two cars here atm which are for sale a complied cefiro and the uncomplied (will be complied) skyline that you most probably saw at autosalon. He also has a container of engines and other bits coming soon so keep a watch on the site to see when it gets here.

Also as for the old JMS premises well 'BULLIVANTS' a cable and rigging company will be moving in their so no more skids "

Well you said it good luck to the new owner.

And No I don't own the White GTR I can't even remember my colour it has been so long. I should go and fire the old girl up and make sure it still run's.

The white one was in Tilbrooks not that long ago. Don't know who owns it.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      If your current chain of thought is, I'll go somewhere like pick and payless (or equivalent) and causally remove the bit of roof with your BYO grinder then casually weld that into your car... oof. It might sound easy but you will 100% end up with a warped roof. You say you'd prefer some ugly fab work, but I don't know if your prepared for how ugly this will be lol.  I've seen professional welders do similar but easier repairs and still end up with warped panels.  It is reasonable to assume that from your current skill level, you won't be able to do this cut and paste job while keeping flat panels.  Ok, but we are here to learn. This might be the go... jump on car sales, sort by price, buy the cheapest thing with rego and drive it home. This is your new practice vehicle. If you're thinking of doing the cut and paste job, try it on this car. Cut out the panel (hey it's a perfect fit) weld in the panel. See what you think of the results.  Next thing you could try, practice removing the entire roof in one piece by drilling out all the spot welds etc. Have a crack and welding the roof back on.

      I've never welded but I own a welder and I've always wanted to learn. In fact I had already looked at a 1 day welding course in Sydney.  I'd prefer some ugly metal fab than anything weak.  I'm challenging myself a lot with this car. For so many years I've just paid other people to do things and I've always been keen to learn and get better.

      Ok, thats a good starting point.  So before we start.... do you mind if the car say isn't a strong as it was before? My first thought is go excavating for rust. You'll be left with a gaping hole, that will be filled with fiberglass. You could make it look factory pretty easily but yeah, if you never crash it will never be an issue right? Before we look at other options, how confident are you welding?

      Oh this is my 1998 E39 5 series. It's worth more to me than financial value. It's a project car for me to love and work on without fear of f**king up something that has lots of value or that I need to keep running.

      I'm super realistic here. I love the car and want to keep it but I know it's days of perfect condition are well and truly over. I just want a fix that won't come back.
