  1. Shame to be selling after all that work, drives well also. I had a go between Sydney and Melbourne when I came down for the Christmas BBQ 2 years ago. The fuel injection makes it very usable. This is a car you can get in and drive and enjoy right away and take care of some of the more minor cosmetic issues like the dashboard that needs a reskin.

  6. That ad and photos don't really do justice to the car in my humble opinion. Great for a buyer though. I think it will sell relatively quickly at that price.

  8. I was hoping to get it on the road and registered so I could drive it Sydney->Melbourne, but maybe I should just get the permit and register it in Melbourne on their Historic plate scheme. Less hassle perhaps than trying to register here and then doing the same thing later in Melbourne? I will have to replace all the consumable items like radiator hoses, water pump, thermostat and fix all the oil leaks, bleed brakes etc.. hopefully she makes the journey. I'm sure she will, but I might have to take a support vehicle along with me.
  9. Actually as recent as 2-3 years ago. Someone was selling a couple on eBay with a buy it now of $100 or so and I snapped them up. Untested, but I haven't had 1 that doesn't work at all so far, so they are pretty durable.
  10. https://m.facebook.com/RetroSoundAU/posts/2618850361534094?d=m Looks a little different on the Facia and missing antenna switch but otherwise lovely jubley.
  11. I took it for a drive around the backyard last night. Kind of felt like I was 16 again. Since it can't be driven on the road at the moment and before I had my license I used to just drive my car up and down the drive way (my first car was a 73 240z back in 98). Video here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/5WmFYmLmv1B4FHhD6 I found the auto box is sometimes slipping, my guess is that it's low on fluid and old fluid, it got better the more I moved it around though. So hopefully a good flush and change will see it back to health. So weird to drive an auto though. The hazards still flash because of the alarm system.
  12. I used to be able to find them for $100 each.. a few years ago now though!

  14. LOL, fair point. However hopefully I won't be moving them too much more. We bought a place in Melbourne last month. But I'll need to extend the garage/area space to accommodate all the toys.
  15. It has been too long! Having the car stored 45mins + away from me in Sydney always made it hard to work on it. I recently moved my FD RX-7 back to Melbourne. Since it's blown a coolant seal sadly and will need an engine rebuild. But not wanting to pull another car apart in Sydney at this stage. So I'll get to it in a few months time. I used Get My Ride - which came recommended and found they were very good. But that meant i had some room in the garage of my Sydney house/garage. So the white Z was dropped off last night. Sadly it was a year or so since I last started it, and I couldn't get the fuel up into the carbs. So we rolled it into the garage, I went to the fuel station got some fuel in a jerry can, poured it into the float chambers via the breather line and then boom up she went first go. Video of it running here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/8Uo6Vx2KiKGbmNUs6 I actually managed to drive it up and down the driveway a bit too. So that was good. Auto's are so weird in a Z... the missus likes the idea of an auto though, so it may become her Z.. she got a bit excited at that idea. ;). Plan is to give her a clean up and get it road worthy so I can drive it down to Melbourne in future. I was hoping to have it ready for Bathurst, but it will be too tight a squeeze i think and I'm nervous an old radiator hose would give up half way there... so may have to show up in a car other than the Z. :(.
  16. How did I miss this ad? What a gem, well worth it. Terry is the kind of guy I love buying cars from. They have kept it running, oiled and loved.
  17. Photos would help mate. Not up on the Graysonline site yet. https://www.graysonline.com/automotive-trucks-and-marine/classic-cars?view=gallery&page-size=100&sort=most-popular
  18. Yeah, I saw it a couple of days ago, thought I'd let him run with it, but as a buyer I think it's reasonable to ask for a price for be listed. @LS1 260z - you must have a price in mind that you'd like to get for it? Can you please list it?
