  1. FYI: HS30 00004 is up for auction in the next 3 days (8th December). https://burnsandco.hibid.com/lot/224051982/1969-datsun-240z-build-no-4?ref=catalog There is some detailed photos in the listing.
  2. Nice. Sounds similar to the E31 head from HS30 00150 I sent to Les a few years ago. In terms of work required to repair it.
  3. That looks great, after all this work and time.
  4. Join the club, but I also think our summers are hotter now than 20 years ago and I find it pretty intense in a Z in summer days. Definitely a +1 for aircon.
  5. HS30 0004 is going to auction: https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=592055046493282&id=100070663746176&rdid=XmWEkbdcg4p55c7T Could be a good litmus test of what people are willing to pay for an early AU HS30.
  6. Sulio (or Toecutter username) hasn't been on the forum for many years now. But yes, I own chassis #51 I've been mulling the question of what it's worth... Certainly a challenge at the moment, given the market for vintage/classic cars is definitely down - especially after interest rates have increased globally and IMHO prices are still pulling back for many cars. Half finished cars are also much more difficult to value, given it's hard to gauge what's there and what isn't. Obviously the more solid and straight the bodywork and less rust the shell has, the higher the value. Along with all the early S30Z parts that are difficult to find, but it sounds like the loss in this case was the chassis, not so much all the associated parts that go with it. IMHO and I find it hard to put a price out there, but I think somewhere in the $20-$30k AUD range may be where I'd value it at the moment. But it's highly subjective and placed on Bring a trailer or similar, who knows what money it could bring? Speaking of BAT HLS30 00051 appeared on BAT back in 2013 i believe, and recently resurfaced in this thread here: https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68900-finally-found-a-69-240z-51-time-to-finish-a-30-year-multiple-owner-restoration/ I feel like @George who owns #19 might also be a good person to ask re: value. Not sure if I've been helpful?
  7. Not sure it was a 240z registration might be too early for a 70 model if that's Victorian rego no.? Could it have been a Datsun sedan?
  8. Yes Violet or 4 cylinder rally mags. I have 3 of them myself. I found a cracked 1 in Bendigo but passed on it. So need 1 more to make a complete set.
  9. Unfortunately there is a lot of them on Facebook now. It's basically the majority of listings. Zuckerberg doesn't care. He's built his doomsday bunker in Hawaii.
  10. It's been a long time, but I believe the other plug is for the Japanese market Parker lamp switches. So yes it works fine even if that other part of the loom is left as is.
  11. If there is 1 thing I hate, it's those hideous poorman connectors. I had to remove them in my white 71 as that was how the alarm system was integrated into the car. Ugh... Pretty sure he doesn't want to do another after that also?
  12. Other company I've heard of is Lumley https://www.lsvcarinsurance.com.au/
