The last conversation being January 2018 a new plan of action was decided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On 20th May i arrived at a friends to borrow his car trailer 09:00 i drove over to friends and heading for the body shop. Arriving at the body should approx 09:30. The first priority was to get the Gt loaded on the trailer (i had key for body shop). I figured should he turn up nothing he could really do if to stop me driving off with the GT once safe on the trailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I quickly fired up the compressor and blew off what dust i could. Fitted my spare battery and the Gt fired up on first turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 40mins or so of moving stuff and manoeuvring the GT. It was free from the unit and loaded on the trailer.&nbsp;<br>The Phoenix wasn&#8217;t looking her best in any form, 2.5years of ground in dust. I made as much of the car secure for the road trip as I could. Taped tarpaulin over the windows and removed any real insecure parts and placed them in the X-trail. One final check over the garage making sure I hadn\u2019t left anything behind brushed up the floor where the GT once sat. Powered down the compressor then locked up and hit the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres084.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres084.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres085.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres085.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres086.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres086.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres087.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres087.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres088.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres088.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres089.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres089.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres090.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres090.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres091.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres091.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I arranged with my friend who&#8217;s body shop has painted many of my cars (he could&#8217;nt paint the GT at the time) to rent some space off him to allow me to finish the body work preparation. Once I got the GT to my friend\u2019s body shop it was given a wash as best I could as it had no windows etc. Once the GT was securely parked up in the bay (its home for now) I returned the trailer back to fiends and went home to relax after a successful operation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres092.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres092.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres093.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres093.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres094.JPG\" rel=\"lightbox[651]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"140\" height=\"180\" class=\"none\" src=\"https:\/\/www.datsuns.co.uk\/Images\/MYDatsuns\/GT2\/Bodywork\/GTres094.JPG\" alt=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/datsuns.co.uk\/?p=823\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/datsuns.co.uk\/?p=823\">Nissan Primera GT Bodywork Pt2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/datsuns.co.uk\/?p=832\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/datsuns.co.uk\/?p=832\">Nissan Primera GT Bodywork Pt4<\/a><\/p><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\">\n<\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_826\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"826\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/datsuns.co.uk\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the last post i mentioned all the work had stopped on the GT.
