Default after 7 weeks without her!

Spent some quality time with her this morning polishing the headlights. she still needs a wash and some small detail ,but im too tired from a long week at work.
Anyway it was at the body shop for almost 2 months being partially painted and according to the body shop ,Nissan kept sending the wrong parts.
It is so perfect now ,not a chip or mark on it for now. im hoping to keep her from more than normal wear and tear ,the small stuff is unavoidable as she is my daily driver.
Kind of a time capsule now due to only 50k miles and a newly restored body.
The reson for the stay at the body shop was a road debris strike that messed up the bumper and the left side skirt.

34 row FI oil cooler installed today with an oil change. Oh what fun. One step closer to Zdayz. I have the new OS Giken diff to get installed and brake fluid to flush. I will be ready to go besides a good wash and cleaning.

Default polish time

I noticed the water was not beading after the wash. It was time for some hard labor in the florida heat. next up is wax.

Waxed and washed for the first time since buying. Now that my other car is sold, it finally feels like I joined the club!

Bought a replica of a replica of the INGS+1 front lip. Made a thread with tons of photos. For $115, it'll be interesting how it installs and works. Sorta scared how flexible it is. Hope it'll conform to the car without much gap anywhere.

After living in apartments since I was 18, I finally obtained a proper stable for the Z. Moved in on Friday. Yes, I have plans for the garage. I have already bought the paint, and epoxy.

Lesson learned here with epoxy floor, finding dropped bolts can be fun if you get a darker colored epoxy with lots of flakes in it.
Nothing beats having your own place to work on cars/projects. congratulations.

This was yesterday. I was giving my co-worker a ride to work because his car wasn't working (I fixed it after work.) I drove a little spiritedly because he asked me to and he would not laughing. He ******* loved it

Put the gray coupe back on the road yesterday and it has not stopped raining. I am so ready to take the 370 for a spin.

Chased the cat off the roof of mine twice already

I wonder if my wife would really miss that lazy sumbitch.

Rolled over the odometer to 15,000 miles. Not too bad for a daily driver that's been on the road just over 2 years.
