[skutaman]

Hey guys,

Longtime Lover of the mighty datsun...
New proud owner of a 82' n910 datsun bluebird!

I got given it form my grandad for my 23rd birthday!! (What a present ae!?)
Ive been hounding him for a year now to buy it off him, n he just gave it to me...

It is factory off white, with black and brown pinstipes,
two tone brown and tan interior, factory option 10 spoke Cheviots,
It has the black plastic/rubber boot spoiler, but Missing the front lip
And best of all.... 136tho on the clock! Genuine!
he got it the year i was born (1988), and its been garaged all its life until 4yrs ago, but, been under a carport since.
Running a L20B (twin carb?) and manual box
it flew thru a warrent with nothing but the plugs and batt changed!

Im currently looking for (In no hurry..):

-the lower center console panel (below the sterio)
-the panel below the steering wheel
-front spoiler (lower lip)


Ill try get some pics up soon (I dont have the net @ home...)

very nice man. love me some bluebirds. looks really nice interior wise. plans for wheels, engine etc?

[skutaman]

Not too much... i plan on keeping the old beast faily original, with a few lil upgrades

thinking of spraying the sidefaces of the rims (inbetween the spokes) black to make them standout a lil more.

as for the motor, im going to keep it fairly standard atm.
but, im trying to get a chance to find the 'mild' cam that came with the head in grandads shed...
it popped on him 2yrs ago, it was bearly ever used, and blew randomly.
all the wreckers around the south island said:

"how the hell did you blow the head, they don't blow!!!"

so the head came from the west coast, off the owner of an ex-rally 910 bluebird!

if you have any ideas, im open to 'influance' lol
