New Tool Time
Whelp, my nearly 30 year old jack finally gave up the ghost. At the recommendation of some friends on the 370Z Discord group, I just picked up this beefy baby.

Ghia Update
Nada…
My better ⅔ did get me a good sized tool chest to organize my goodies. It’s nice to have everything in one place.

The draws are huge in this thing.

Next up: the air compressor. Stay tuned.

Sorry folks… This is probably more notes for me (links below images), but if you need some of this stuff…









How Shall I Get the Ghia to Bare Metal?
I’m contemplating the best way to get the Ghia to bare metal. There’s so much rust and filter on this thing, the best method is probably blasting or dipping.
My problem with that is it’s expensive and I suspect a lot of the metal is going to need to be replaced anyway. Why spend a lot on stripping just to throw it away?
Maybe I just need to DA it down the best I can and assess where I am with it.
Any thoughts?

This looks like a nice electric DA.

Wheel Jacks Arrived
They appear to be of very high quality. Perhaps I’ll do a review after I use them.


It’s Official!
After 2,324 days and 1,246 spams blocked by Akismet, the restoration is officially underway!
After discussing with my beautifully lovely better two-thirds, we have come up with a plan and means have been made available to get this project underway. That’s right… fewer garage and other car posts and more about getting down to it. Trust me, I know it’s been a long time coming, but everything in my life happens at the right time when it needs to happen (my main squeeze taught me that).
So without further ado, I have made my first purchase for the project. Since my garage is small and the car isn’t mobile, I have to have a way to move it around. I ordered these wheel dollies this morning to help with just that.


I also hung up the “to do” dry eraser board.

Stay tuned my friends…
