I still think asking price is very reasonable based on condition in photos. The bent bonnet nose really annoys me. But it could be far worse in person than photos suggest. Still restoring a well kept but aged and tired car like this is almost always cheaper than restoring someone's old garden ornament that hasn't moved in 25 years.

Condensed history of Japan.

Fair price in my opinion.

I reckon you must be fun at parties...

I love the finish on the wood, think I might give that a go on mine.

It did catch my eye also but then I thought about the fact there is 4 bolts holding it in.

It's 1 way to deal with the 2+2 roof line. I just feel s30z's look wrong without a roof.

Can't find struts locally?

Torsion rod metal pressings.. useful if your ones are rotten. http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/c603416838

I might buy 1 when they are cheap again haha.

Datsun owners be like pfft rust. http://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/buying-maintenance/amp10023028/heres-exactly-how-much-work-goes-into-restoring-a-rusty-porsche-911/

Probably closer to what was invested in it but you're first guess is closer to asking.

You would be on the monies. Considering it was bought for about 69k from the throttle shop, shipped half a world away and restored etc.. just do the math and you'll know the costs etc..

Got a few mate.

Or use incorrect mirrors... But everyone has to draw a line somewhere I guess. Price is up there, best to ask. Some may fall over if they knew..

If in good usable condition I've seen them sell for $15k. Since they are for a Z432 and they fetch 250-300k for a good 1 maybe a bit more, what's 15k for the right wheels?

Same set from same seller they didn't sell apparently and I'm not sure if bidding was genuine.

What year centre console do you need? I've found early 240z rear hatches and maybe a clean 260/280 hatch.

I don't know, I know the guy who had them was going to take them to Japan or look for a potential buyer there. He said he showed a photo of them to a shop in Japan and the owner nearly had a heart attack. He was asking $10k+ from memory. I looked into restoration of them and got told they were beyond repair, you would use them as garden/garage ornaments only. But he was convinced he'd struck oil (seller) and I didn't even bother trying to offer him a reasonable price. (I want the wider version anyway). Pretty sure they were fitted to HS30 00920 when sold in NZ. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/topic/13773-early-girl-bingo-with-photos/?p=182268
