Ok I am going to do this right this time. Due to on going health issues I am offering my recently purchased 260Z for sale. I have finally realised that I am 63 year old man with stuffed lungs NOT a 36 year old with a hard on. Takes a while to figure this out. The paint job is in pretty good shape with a few scratches here and there as can be expected. . It is an auto . . Yes it does have a sun roof but it a slide away type and as the panel is metal you already have a plug that follows the roof profile if you so wish to do so. l26 motor runs ok and gear box works good although I have not driven this car very far and would suggest a good tune and service would not go astray. Of course the car is offered for pick up only from Loganholme but the guys from Get My Ride offer a very good service for interstate buyers. Model: 1974 Datsun 260 Z Coupe. [2 Door] Location: Loganholme Qld. Price and Payment: $29000.00 SOLD Condition: Excellent for a 43 year old car. Interior has been replaced at some stage and seats etc are in good condition. Dash is great with no cracks and only a minor crack in console. Body: Good paint with a few scratches and chips. Mechanical: Standard L26 with Auto box and could due with tune and service. SOLD. Registration: Currently on Qld club rego and transferable in Qld. otherwise unreg. Engineers Certificate: Non required. Please PM if interested and I can supply more pics and my contact no should you wish to know any other details or purchase this great car. Peter T. 0436015000 SOLD.

The one I got come from him and I found the brackets and nylon sleeves. PM me your address and I will shoot it off to you.

Looks good.

So where are your original ones? Just trim them. No one is going to know.

Not sure why they were in 240/260 2Seaters but not in 2+2. I know that they will not fit in 260 2+2.

Y do U want them for mate. Most people who do brake upgrades throw them away.

Good to see you back working on the blue bus. They are def fun to drive mate.

Got all the bits out of a 2+2 here in Brissie. See how you go in Mexico first. If NSW win this Wednesday it will be $100000000000000000000000000. LOL. Plus postage of course. That will be another $10000000000.

Some people just need a helping hand. Good to you got her going mate good on mad-z for helping a fellow Zeder out.

May have one in the shed. Def have pedal just have to check for mounts. I will have a look tomorrow or you may get one closer if your lucky. Postage shouldn't be too much.

If I was closer it wouldn't be a problem but I am a little far away. Do you have that ceramic resistor thingy on you coil. If it burns out car won't run.

Good day and Lofty enjoyed the trip up to Leburn in my Z. A good trip home next day when a 4x4 almost rolled in front of us. https://youtu.be/Sm5Lj86FmOE

My RA60 has been done with TECTYL from brand new and not a bit of rust can be found. One thing I did notice the holes where the wand has been inserted has been punched not drilled which makes sense as it leaves no little bits of steel inside panels. Also I have this rather great little spray gun for spraying Tectyl and lanolin everywhere.

hi my new project appears to be painted in 2 pak and I am doing a few minor repair and was wondering what best to touch up with. Thanks for any input. Peter.

Penatrol ?

Until you pull them out to check for rust. Usually so stuck in there they just tear apart.

Thanks Gav.

No worries mate that's what we are all about on this forum. Helping one another.

Hi someone was makin those hinge rubber thingos on this site. I bought a set and they wouldn't fit a bus so sent them back. Now I have a real car I need the inserts again. Please tell me who was makin these thingoes.

Great day but they really need to do somthing about the entry. My car is not that low but still scrapes on the way in and out.

Welcome mate. I am about the same vintage and once had a 64 Cortina with a 1600 x flow GT motor. Great car and wish I still had it. I will be in Bundy next week if you want to catch up.

After four or so years building my green bus, I thoroughly enjoy driving it all the time with minor maintenance. These old cars require a lot of that. I recently purchased a 260 2 seater that was, as I have found out not very well restored but as I am now retired it has become a bit of a project. Not a lot to do but just find the rust that has ben covered up and fix it. Hopefully I can do that without a repaint. So even when you think you know what you are looking at these old cars will bite you. Not good for a young bloke who wants to drive his car straight away but hello these cars are now over 40 years old. I feel sorry for Mitch who spent 13 years and a lot of money building his car only to have it go for a swim but I am sure he will recover and get his dream car on the road. I guess I am one of the lucky ones who has a car to drive and one that is a minor project. As far as the race car builders go I guess it is a case of whatever pulls your chain. I would love a race car but that is another deep well that needs to be full of cash that I don't have so I just enjoy my race car look alike as I did when I was 18. Pisses me off to remember my 1600 cost me $1500 back then. My two bobs worth.

Good luck with the sale mate as this is truly a good car.

These wheels are up for grabs again so please contact Vince if you want them. Gav?

I will be early Dave to secure a spot.
