All good I bid to 21000 haha and the misses was egging me on to go more but the competition were very keen and I think I was about to have a coronary!!!
In the end I really didn't want to go higher than 18 but shit got hectic very quickly
Went from 10 back to 5 back to 10 then to 15 all in the space of under 60 seconds!!!
Wasn't meant to be the other couple just wanted it more
Thanks to all here for the advice though it's been a great education
Very true but I dont think I could swap it out being such a clean original
You know of the auction will you be attending mate? Be good to catch up with other enthusiasts if nothing else!
Was hoping under10 being auto but being an auction who knows
Also up for auction the same day is an Austin Healy bug eyed sprite, 2 fj holdens and a old ford panel van so never know I may be the only one the for the Datsun but doubt it haha
Looking at this tomorrow at an auction without disclosing the location and time (sorry people I'm sure I will have enough competition as it is! Haha)
Just posting to sound out others thoughts
What I know is this
Original 2+2 auto
Most likely one owner
Hasn't been started since mid 90's (when he passed)
Looks very straight and rust free
Matching numbers
Not sure of kms until tomorrow but I'm betting all sweet
Just trying to gauge a price range as the figures the estate agent is throwing around are on the high side I think
Anyway have a stab at it guys let's see if I've taken enough cash out haha
Ok which one of you buggers from Newcastle beat me to this gem!! Haha was about to leave a deposit and buy a plane ticket!!!!!

Hi there
New to this page but looking desperately for a 260z 2+2 to restore or in good condition
Had one for a few years about 10 years ago but was forced to get rid of it by my now ex partner and sold it for a measly 1k!!!
Going through a midlife crisis now so I need to fill the Datsun hole in my mancave
Located in Echuca vic
Any help tracking something down or if one of you guys here are looking to part would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
