  1. For me, the video shows that any kind of bubble is often potentially grounded in some truths. But it is also based on a bunch of assumptions about the future. I do think the true Unicorns, like 400r and Z-Tune, Spirit R or Type RZ and the older 70s models like the 2000gt and 432-R and early Savanna Rotary coupes etc.. will be a safe bet.. but will all the lower spec models perform the same? Interesting they quoted Spirit R at $170k in future. But people have already been asking that for them on CarSales in last 6 months. And SP version sold at auction for similar not long ago. I also got a bit irked when they referred to 432R as a Datsun. Not a Nissan Fairlady Z432-R..
  2. So happy to have these sections, I spent ages fixing old bits and trying to get it to look right. Not an easy task.
  3. A bit more "fraud" expose in the Japanese Auction Market. Dodgy S15 given grade 4.
  4. Ouch, apply water to burns. If my opinion is worth anything, I'd get it back on the road with the L-series first and drive it for a bit to see what you think. I know they are not particular fast compared to modern stuff, but I also think they are quite well balanced with the L-series and make for a fun drive. But also, for you. https://www.whichcar.com.au/features/windsor-347-1976-datsun-260z
  5. @DOChas requested his/her account be disabled. So I've put it into ban status for now.
  6. Ditto :).
  7. Probably close what you paid for it at auction? Since that is what the market has dictated is the value? I believe it went to $17,500 and buyers premium is 7.5% (including GST). So what's that $18,812.5? + Freight to Queensland? Maybe $1,000 on top? So around about $20k? But I hear you're asking closer to $30k? Sounds like your circumstances change often. And full disclaimer, I have no problem with people trying to flip cars. What I do have a problem with is people doing so under false pretences and using a community forum like this which costs money to run each month as their platform for doing it. As no doubt you'll be in and out like a flash in the pan, having just enriched your own pocket. Just be transparent that you're flipping it.
  8. What are you asking for it? I have a friend that might be keen?
  9. Bring a Trailer Green 240z which sold in 2019 for $68k is back for sale. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-datsun-240z-77/ HLS30 00842 Starting strong with $35k and 7 days to go.

  16. Thank you @Tony Mahonie for your contribution. Much appreciated.
  17. Quiet you lot, or I'll make @C.A.F.the admin here too. (as well as the FB group)...
  18. Just an FYI that Donations are helpful, especially because there is a small but modest increase in the annual licence fee for the software that runs the site.
  19. What's worse is that all the Yolo hipster types that want to slot in big power engines into these cars when they have no idea if the integrity of the car structure is any good. I mean chances are most cars running around are not as strong as they were when sold in 1970 now due to issues like this.. yet they all want 500hp+... recipe for trouble if you ask me. But I've just outed myself as an old fart. Shouting at young whipper snippers with my walking cane.
  20. I've seen these wheel caps about from time to time, problem is the coloured / enamel part always always has chipped off and the fingers on the rear that hold it to the hub are often broken and or very fragile by now. I bought some off @Scoota G a couple of years ago but he cracked the shits with me and never sent them. But if he's feeling more generous and still has them I'm happy for you to have them..
  21. Sunroof + shiny lower sill tax. Really can't work out what's the story with those sills.
  22. The finish looks "flocked", shouldn't be too hard to replicate on another dash I would imagine.
