  1. I had the same issue, tried to buy one but none available so had to go down the rebuild path. Came up well.
  2. Good to see them finally being appreciated, gone are the days of a cheap 280zx.
  3. For those interested, it has a L28 turbo under the hood
  4. Does look like good value in the current market. Wonder what’s under the bonnet?
  5. There's always a bit of buyers remorse when you pay decent money, but looking back looks like you got a bargain there Pete.
  6. 260z 2 seater, these things are on the move. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1975-datsun-260z-manual/SSE-AD-12016349
  7. And another one, http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1283343228?utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=ios_VIP&utm_medium=social&utm_source=sms
  8. Looks like the one that got passed in at Burns&co
  9. Few people looking for these, another white one? https://www.lloydsonline.com.au/LotDetails.aspx?stype=0&stypeid=0&kw=Datsun&cid=0&smode=0&lid=3113596&pgn=1&pgs=100#lightbox
  10. 81 on the compliance plate, looks like series 2 with the tail lights.
  11. Yeah I was watching it, auctioneer said it was close to the reserve and they would talk with the final bidder
  12. I don't doubt it's worth it Herbie, more a comment about the state of the market than having a crack mate. Looks like a nice 2+2.
  13. Wow, that's gone up, he was asking $17500 last year.
  14. Anyone chasing a 280ZX, could be worth a look. https://burnsandco.hibid.com/lot/96489179/1982-datsun-280zx-coupe
  15. I drove the car 5 weeks ago and it’s very well sorted, owned by an automotive engineer who is pedantic. I would be surprised if he let it sell for that price at auction having seen it in the flesh. He certainly wasn’t talking figures anywhere near $50k when I saw it. Paint is the only thing letting it down but it’s very straight and lots of hard to find stuff like the mirrors, D hubcaps, lenses etc. I notice it’s still up on gumtree.
  16. https://www.ebay.com.au/i/174753966633?ul_noapp=true Not a Zed but interesting none the less, don't see these much any more.
  17. Not mine https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/bedford/cars-vans-utes/1971-datsun-240z/1272625617?ea=18392505&utm_source=trigger&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=saved_search
  18. It's on the website now. https://www.graysonline.com/sale/60010002/motor-vehicles-motor-cycles/sa-classic-cars-bikes-november?spr=true
  19. Yeah, wish it was easier to rego here, no rust in the car either which was a real surprise
  20. Yeah big shame Gav, I have plenty of cars just no Datsun at the moment. Hoping it gets on the road soon.
  21. Sold, pending pick up.
  22. Good to know, it was last registered in 2001 in ACT, so someone has had luck with it before. Insurance is the same, just had to note it on the policy.
  23. Number on the firewall matches the tag, problem is they do a full inspection here and it reads seats 4 so will raise eyebrows. Been told it shouldn’t be a problem in ACT, WA or Tas but they may seize it here, not keen on that at all.
  24. Not to mention the great sound the N/A L28 makes! Unfortunately I may have to flip this baby as there is no way it will get thru inspection here in Adelaide with that compliance plate. Could try in another state but it won’t fly here. Options are to keep it and turn it into a track car but was really hoping to turn it into a father son project for my lads first car. Open to offers if someone wants to have a try at getting it registered or I may throw it back to auction. It’s a shame as it’s a great little car.
