I think Terry's already got a bigger fork lift for the racking.

That's nice - 'modest' bumper conversion, should be able to reuse the chrome bumper and wehay !

Lovely car John!

 

[johnymd]

All the pics inside, out, and underneath look very good. Nothing to do to the car other than a mod on the bumpers ,as you say Sean. Nice and original, 1 previous owner, 49k miles and garaged its whole life in California. Cant wait to get it back.

 

[johnymd]

And its got a "Do it in a Datsun" licence surround.

 

[johnymd]

Even quite nice underneath.

 

[jonbills]

What's that thing all the way down the side? does it come off without leaving marks?

 

[johnymd]

I was hoping no one would see that Jon. I think most of them are screwed on which a bit of a pain. Some are stuck on which would be nicer. Wont know until it arrives. It seams that every US car had them from new. Probably put on by the dealers.

 

[SeanDezart]

I like 'em if they're on - wouldn't put 'em on if repainting though.

Can you still do 'it' in a Datsun mate ? Gotta be souple.....

Not every US car. That does look nice and straight, hope its as good under the sealant, looks like it should be .

Was it a bit cheaper than buying a 240z?

 

[SeanDezart]

Late '73 car ?

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I like the panel fit of this car - all the areas that can be out of alignment look spot-on to me.

Nice buy John.

 

[johnymd]

It was more than the other 2 but not by much. Just under1k more.

Yes Sean.

Thanks rob. It does look really good all over. It was so cheap though there's plenty of scope if something needs doing.

 

[johnymd]

and another.

Here's a taster pic. Guess what colour its going to be?

 

[richiep]

You were up late - that finished at 3am! I recognise the pic!

I would've been bidding if it wasn't for terminally **** news impending at work that might kill my mood for spending money anytime soon.

[johnymd]

I cant sleep when there's zeds for sale in other time zones.

Was thinking blue.

 

[SeanDezart]

Was thinking blue.

Boring !

 

[johnymd]

GREEN, obviously!!
