Hey guy. I'll do a quick update here. And thanks for the comments. That helps keep me motivated on a long project.
So my want ad for info provided a substantial pay off. I have since met the family of the original owner, spent alot of time with the second owner who bought the Z in May of 1969, and the third owner who raced it in the mid 70s. Have tons of cool stories and info I'll be putting together, and they all claim to have baby pictures coming my way, but none have come thru yet.
The work at the body shop stalled out, (same old story) so I collected the car and all the parts and restarted the effort on my own. The new rear frame rails were also put too close together at the front spring perches so we re-did all the floors again and got all the dimensions correct. Here is where we sit now. Restoring and mocking up all the major components and now starting on body gaps. Then back apart for body and paint.
