New Zealand Datsun Club

no worries, went to SAS (suspension automobile services) in gt south rd, manukau, they fitted new rear shocks to it and i got offered $3000 for the car by a lady that worked there...sorry, but no thanks, i'm repairing it (was a good offer though).

may be a silly question but how rare is the 810 series 180b station wagon (within New Zealand)? i believe there may be two on waiheke island (mine and some other guys (the other guys is pretty beaten up from what i've heard)). my wagon is a 1978 registered model. http://s1088.photobucket.com/albums/...

lol re the gearshift being an optional extra for the dough...i don't like driving autos as am too used to manuals, but would you have any idea why the gear shifts would be really tough? i've checked the fluids and they seem fine, not sure if it's the selectors or something else...
