Sintered from nylon powder via laser, so I made a handful if anyone needs them. They are not super exact, but fit tight. Either side gas pedal mounts, and the little door handle crank bush that goes in the door. http://i445.photobucket.com/albums/qq177/gaijin240z/20141224_113009.jpg Have a safe and ...

Since the Celica is almost re-wired, better hurry the zed up some more. Take Papua New Guinea dash over to dashboard restorations in Glenfield for some loving. Back log of work there until late Jan, yikes, better get it in then. Car also booked in with Dan Slater in Jan to complete some minor fiddly...

Thanks Mike,

Seems like I have misplaced/lost/never had part no. 18021-E4100
Bush Accelerator pedal.
Any ideas if the part was shared with any other Datsun I could help the search to get one?

I note that there is 9 variants of gas pedal. Sheesh.

That and house renovations and working and family etc. Promise. ANyway, time to move on Celica, you have had your time black de...

Like Godzilla in hibernation, it must wake up some time right... The help came in the form of the Toyota moving house for a while so I can focus on the where the heck I left the zed in terms of works.

He's been working on another car. Thanks Bronzee, Yup, working rather hard on another car, TA22 Celica. Its close to being finished, so the zed has had a few days spent here and there on it with finishing details, putting NOS stuff on it, lots of gaskets, rubbers, fuel fill pipes etc that have come...

Progress?

Umm, chipping away for sure.
My mobile internet is ultra slow at the current address hence the lack of posting.

I have made progress with the car, and will post shortly.

thanks
