Count me in still 👍

Please put me down as a definite yes. I’m in Guernsey, so will need to sort shipping to me here - but I can arrange courier collection. Thanks!

Just a heads up - have you dealt with Collecting Cars before? I have - their attitude is absolutely disgusting once they have your agreement signed. I had the misfortune to try to sell a beautiful 20k mile classic BMW with them. Long story, but thanks to them not sorting any viewings that...

Afternoon all! I'm going to cut out and replace the panel under my battery (LHD layout) on my 280Z. It's not rusted through, but it's thinned and I'm doing bulkhead work next to it for the RHD conversion. It's the only bit of corrosion on the car, so I'd like it sorted. I was going to order...

Would you be happy to pop this in a box and post it to Guernsey? If so I’ll have it please.

Can you elaborate? Are you referring to roll steer?

Evening all, As part of my RHD conversion, I've been looking for a viable non-PS RHD rack which could be used. The original RHD Datsun racks are getting silly expensive due to their scarcity, this led me to look for an alternative. MK2 Escort racks are available in a wide range of ratios and...

Thanks guys! I actually have a RHD 260Z dash, inc frame, which is pretty decent, but cracked. I’d love to replace the skin of it with one that isn’t cracked, as I don’t have much faith in the long term survival of a repaired one. Does someone make a full replacement skin for the 260/280 shape...

Well that’s interesting!! I’ve never managed to find one!

Nope, I think I’m sorted now between the various people who cropped up, but will bear them in mind!

Already got a dash, picked up a nice 260Z one a while back 😊

Yep, I’m keeping the L28 but good thinking!

Yep, absolutely. It’s a car I’m keeping forever and I don’t like a LHD over here.

Yeah I’ve already pulled the ECU loom, the main loom still has a bunch of stuff in that I don’t need. I haven’t decided yet. I do love wiring and I want the engine bay to look as clean and uncluttered as possible, so it would be a great opportunity to re-route things and simplify, to get the...

Yep, it’s going to be somewhere between a cosmetic resto and a full-blown nut and bolt. I want to get using it, then will keep on improving over the years. If I dig too deep, I’ll end up with it just sat in the workshop forever while I chase perfection. I’m so, so impressed with the condition...
