Hmmm I have a whole spare dash (shagged) I am contemplating selling as is or restoring at Dashboard doctor. It has a glovebox door also... not sure what you're hoping to spend on 1? I'd prefer to keep them together..

I've noticed similar, I think it's due to the spring selling market of homes, maybe people lose storage for their cars when they move home? It could also be that people are skint leading into the Christmas period. I bought my white 240z around this time of year and my Gold 1.. Funny enough.

Looks a gem, apart from the bonnet which is bowed up front. So it's had a small nudge in the past 47 odd years.

These "Nismo" style Mikuni 44's will fetch a pretty penny I think.. https://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/e389162547?conversionType=search_suggest Current Price 180,000 yen (AU $ 2,545.20) Bad translation.

A few C10's on Carsales at the moment. I believe this was at auctions not long ago. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1970-nissan-skyline-2000-gt-manual/SSE-AD-6031904/?Cr=4 Kevin San's KGC10 https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1970-nissan-skyline-2000-gt-manual/SSE-AD-6323508/ And this Red 1 in QLD, which I think (but could be wrong) was imported by Edward Lees many years ago. There cannot be too many red C10's running around in Australia... after all. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1970-nissan-skyline-2000-gt-manual/SSE-AD-6239378/

It's been 50 years since the S30z was announced to the public. Happy birthday to all my 240z's.

FYI: Your rear bumper overriders are upside down.

That's great! Have you ordered anything from them yet?

Alan @HS30-H is the only person I know who had these reproduced in 15" in the past and I get the impression he's not wanting to get into that again, given costs etc..

Yeah I noticed the same also, it seems to be like that from factory. You may be able to see it on my 71. Note how it just curves up close to the exhaust exit cut out? This car as far as I can tell has never had a hit in the rear, so appears to be the nature of the panel, probably because of the cut out, it offers a form of "relief" or slack.

Are you going to hack the shell up into pieces or sell it whole?

At least LS parts are good for something I suppose? Too soon? PS: Well done Gordo, it's really appreciated all the effort you put in.

Decided I'd try the rear valance section from the UK supplier. indigo123music (UK) - Facebook Page (Auto Panel Solutions) Details in this thread. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/293257126777?ul_noapp=true Only problem is that the cost is 214 GBP before shipping, once shipping is factored in it will cost around $500 AUD by the time it gets here. I would have bought 2 but never really worth the effort bulk buying and it seems the extras I bring in end up benefiting someone else not me. :). Otherwise I'd have bothered to organise a group buy. Maybe someone else can if there is enough demand? But I also don't know just "how good" this panel will be yet till I have it on hand. So you can call me the guinea pig for this 1, and hopefully the community will benefit from my experience here? I think this section is a lot better made than the Canadian supplier piece which I struggled with, due to missing compound curves and the thickness of the material it was made from. Reason I bought this 1 is that it's closer to OEM than the Canadian section (muffler cut out in particular) and the piece I fabricated which I was gonna struggle to get the rear bumper reliefs right in. Since this section is nearly impossible to find now and nobody is doing a full reproduction I decided if I can make 2 good sections out of the scrap I started with it would be beneficial to have 1 spare and it's all a good learning experience (even if it's an expensive 1), but I want this car to look "right" when done. Otherwise once it's in paint any "faults" will really irk me.. Also still cheaper than the $4,500 NOS 1 I tried to buy on eBay a year or so ago...! So from that perspective I'm still ahead, even though I'm behind, if that makes any sense?
