Did anyone else notice this 71 240z sold for $40k USD? https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-240z-51/ L28 swap and mods and all..

It's a bit odd to see it with a bumper after all these years without, but it just looks more complete now. @Léon has been restoring my "supposedly good" bonnet. Turns out it would have been cheaper to buy a reproduction, but it's done now. It will be getting painted and I'll be sending down some fluted inspection flaps to go with it.

New Nissan Z? https://www.whichcar.com.au/news/nissan-designer-confirms-next-gen-z-project

Cool, would like 1 of those.

Fair enough, not getting easier to source compete. I've still got a pair of Z-therapy SUs for sale at $1,500 AUD. Bargain.

Production Quality of this looks great!

SU carbs + Airbox. No price listed. https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/box-hill-south/engine-engine-parts-transmission/1971-240z-original-carburetors-manifold-air-box/1194377581?ea=11034230&utm_source=trigger&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=saved_search

Brap brap!

As someone who has a degree and spent years at Uni, I can say it doesn't matter if you have a degree or not, I know a lot of people in the "real world" of an office who can tell you exactly what needs to be done, but when it comes down to actually doing it, wouldn't know their arse from elbow. With my own projects, I could have made much more progress if I just paid to have things done. But I don't get much satisfaction out of that. I prefer to attempt it, discover it costs me more to do it than if I paid someone and end up with a slightly less ideal finish, but have learnt something. I know with my panel beating work that's the case. :). I am still yearning to have the space you do in the future. So I can set up a proper workshop with the tools I want / need. Working on cars can be frustrating especially when you get stuck, but as soon as you learn how to do things you start to enjoy it and get a thrill out of fixing stuff. What I like about Oxy welding is that I really struggled with it (still do) but as you get better at it, it's very satisfying.

72 on eBay with Buy It now of $16,500. Floors looks like they have been repaired before. But car looks very original down to the original OEM muffler. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Datsun-240Z/173506740555?hash=item2865cec14b:g:7oIAAOSwp~9biVv3&vxp=mtr

It's Trippples

I think with that seller it probably didn't meet reserve. kp47works is known for having rare and expensive Nissan parts etc.. but also charging an absolute Premium for them and feedback I've heard is that may not be the most reputable individual. So don't expect to pick up a GTR for a bargain price.

I haven't watched your last few videos yet Jeff, only because time poor... I will catch up soon.

A couple more GTRs. https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/c675034892 https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/o253532246 Will update details and photos later.

Hey Guys, Please let me know if you have ongoing issues. It appears we had a database error due to a crashed database table. While there are several reasons that a table crash might occur, it is always caused by the server. For example it can be caused by the server being improperly shut down or restarted, hard disk drive failure/errors, improper repair attempts on a database, etc. Repairing a crashed table is a simple process, and I kicked this off this morning, but due to the size of the table it timed out, so I had to get the hosting company's help to run the repair. This has now been completed and so the site should be running again. But let me know if you have ongoing problems that have occurred since yesterday (not your personal problems I don't wanna know :P), lord know I've got enough of my own :).

Looking forward to it, I'm actually pretty sure it will run too!

Boys will be boys, I know it's pretty far gone, but just goes to show these motors are tough! I think they had less trouble getting it running than I did with my 71. :). I hope it doesn't end up on a scrap heap, but I know how much money it needs to be fixed.

There is a saying that if you torture the numbers for long enough they will confess to anything.. On that note the numbers showing men are less safe are definitely being pedalled by misandrists and that #triggers me./sarc.
