Yep, I saw it also. Velocity Channel, "Retro Car Kings", segment 281.
It was a pretty cool show.
What a neat segment It focused on a Japanese restorer of Fairlady Z's. Beautiful work . One of his comments fits with comments I have seen in this community. It is totally wrong to modify or go hybrid. Stay 100% original. Anyway if you can access Velocity TV, check it out.

We've seen this one here before, but thanks for the mention.
They must really like what they're doing, if they work on a car for up to two years, and then sell it for about 20,000 or so.
OTOH, I wouldn't mind that old guy working on my car, and maybe just a pinch of modern stuff to put it in-line with all the stories I keep hearing from people about how fast it was.

OTOH, I wouldn't mind letting that guy do his thing to my car, with maybe a 'pinch' of the modern stuff to get things in-line with all the stories I keep hearing about how fast those S30 were.![]()

His race Z looked incredible, I wish more had been done on his segment and less on Rocky Auto, he was an artisan, not a restorer. The segment on RWB was pretty interesting too.
