    Hi Rev, have always been an admirer of your work and if the BMW Green 260 you did ever comes onto the market I would love to buy it. The detail in your work is fantastic. If the Zeds ever get to the stage the Austin Healy's have, this would be a good income stream for a talented guy like you http://s286.photobucket.com/user/reverendzed/media/2013-01-21142038.jpg.html

    Always amazes me how cars end up like this......surely this is Zed abuse

    This advert mentions he has original seats: http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/narre-warren-north/auto-body-parts/240z-260z-s31-parts-hood-quarter-panels-spoiler-air-dam-/1061618745

    That must have been very hard. Is the new owner a member? At least then you can watch it progress.

    Sorry .... a touch of dementia kicking in, I even commented on it Did not see the price on it though, that I would not forget so easily
  6. oldmates260z
    Where did you see it sold for 6k, that is ridiculously cheap
  7. oldmates260z
    Sorry but I like the Yellow It is more like the colour you expect to see under a bonnet and will likely wear better in time.

    Welcome. Looks like a very tidy car, what are the current specs, looks fairly original. What are the plans with it?

    This post was started in April 2014....are you still looking? You must have seen a few over the time

    Welcome aboard, suggest you start a Journal and put up some pics....that gets everyone interested and engaged in your build. Research the site you may find someone that has been recommended before

    Sound great, looks even better....very nice!

    This looks like a good buy if you are after an original 280ZX, shame its a Auto http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/north-warrandyte/cars-vans-utes/datsun-1983-nissan-280zx-targa-coupe-auto-concourse-winner-/1065641123

    Wow 16 and already a Zed nut Good luck. They are a great example to start learning about cars....the Datsun brand was what I started on when I was 16 which was a long time ago. Suggest you search the site a bit more for any work you want to do and give you ideas.

    Wow, that a great story and sounds like another chapter is starting....need to get the Journal going and show the progressive photos. It always amazes me how they come to life after a long rest in a shed

    Here is link for when I started the re-trim seat project: http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,14548.15.html Linton has experience in this process and what is needed. I have decided to get a professional upholster to do mine - new foam and fit the covers - but have yet to have the time to find one in Brisbane (if anyone knows one?)

    These are within your budget I would guess http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/gosford/cars-vans-utes/1974-datsun-260z-coupe/1065026773 http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/langwarrin/cars-vans-utes/1975-datsun-260z-project/1063878233

    +2 Merry Xmas, thanks for all the helpful hints and such a great site
  18. oldmates260z
    Nice looking Evo....a bit of work to get the Zed looking that good. Good luck with the resto and look forward to see it progress.

    Does anyone know this car? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Datsun-260z-2-2-Turbo-Intercooled-L28et-5-speed-project-needs-some-work-/111550604435?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item19f8ef2493

    The SU's do not look like the ones off a 240Z, they do not have the long neck. May be there is a setup issue. There was another thread a few years ago with the same issue but I cannot find it. May be a partially blocked fuel filter.

    Weird miss

    oldmates260z replied to WogsRus's topic in Engine

    What type of carbies is it running and with what air filters? I had this issue once with it sucking in the Ramflo filter element as the internal cage was missing.

    Congratulations looks like a very tidy looking original Zed. Very long and determined Zed hunter. Did not see this one pop up anywhere before. A local Tassie car?
