SUPER HAPPY! *Here's Why*!

Thank you to everyone who has contributed work into my vehicle. I know it has been an extremely long, difficult, crazy journey, but we are finally going to make it to the finish line.
Tomorrow, my Z is completely restored.

I drove her around the block about 15 times while bleeding the coolant and making sure the coolant operating temperatures were stable -- and it was.

0 leaks, 0 codes, 0 errors at the end of today's work.
All codes that popped up was fixed today.
No check engine light on -- and if it was, it was fixed.

HUGE HUGE HUGE SPECIAL THANKS TO....
At least 10 people whose names I will keep anonymous since this is a forum and not a personalized account who helped one way or another through the skills, knowledge, support, and specialized ability to do this type of work correctly.

HUGE THANKS TO THIS Z-COMMUNITY...
For supporting me throughout the entire time from the July 3rd accident up until now.
- TopgunZ for his a2a kit contribution and also his support, knowledge in aiding me along the process of putting the car back together.
- "Z"en & Redondo & Topz for supporting me when I was sulking down in the dumps having nothing but negativity going through my mind but yet still managing to find supportive words for me.

This job could not have been done without each and every one of your specialized hands, skills, support, and knowledge.

Throughout the various trips to the store because we forgot something, needed something, or purchased the wrong item just to return it again;
Throughout the various issues we ran into that was squashed only because you guys had the knowledge, skills, and ability to solve it.
And throughout the countless hours spent on this vehicle...

The fruit is soon to be perfectly ripe.

The patience was well worth it, and that is probably the most valuable thing I learned from all of this thus far -- because, as Topz once said... patience is one thing that is critical for people to have within this hobby.

Unfortunately, I could not make any videos of it firing up or driving for the first time today because my phone was pretty much out of battery (4%) but I will try to make some videos tomorrow of it!

Just need to finish some fine adjustments for tomorrow and she is back on the road, healthy and good to go.
