Good to see some progress, front end is looking very clean and crisp. I do miss having the luxury of a garage, mine is too small. Looking ahead I'll be wanting to extend it and get my zed inside so I can do some work on it now its not a daily runner. With these sort of projects it's never about getting it finished for a particular date, more to do with when it's ready and to the original wish list.

Good progress, was the rad a custom build, or is it one of nissens standard range of rads, as 180 rads are nla and likely to remain so that could be a viable alternative.

Nice to read that there is some progress after the flooding setback!
At least now that the engine has been stripped and looked it it has shown where the problems were.
Keep at it and good luck

Can't remember 100% if it was the 200 or 180sx alloy rad but I had to check out a few suppliers as they were all slightly different sizes. Unfortunately it's not a straight fit as the lower rail needs chopping about to get it.
Just rad cap and no fittings to tie in original expansion vessel but nothing to huge.
Just nowt out there that will slot in place, as I am finding with everything hence me having to make most bit up myself.
