240Z Project

240Z: Update on the rear end bodywork

While i’m working on a big, new, exciting project (I’ll post about it in a few weeks or months i guess) the bodyshop keeps me updated and has some nice progress on the rear end
1) The top of the rear lower hatch Panel have been remodeled out of sheetmetal and looks absolutely stunning. Raw naked steel. I have the NOS top panel which will be added, once everything is completed.img-20161101-wa0003-kopie

The lock mount and upper panel mounts have been removed, sandblasted and welded back into position. the red colour is just temporary rust protection primer:img-20161102-wa0001-kopie

On the new rear quarter panel the rear corner piece has been removed (for easier installation):
