I got some pics of the dash e.t.c. Tony, will upload later 2night if I remember.

He does need some parts, main bit would probably be the centre console (tunnel), and skyline boot badge, and boot lock.

and a new front strut aye! lol Although it does look pretty awesome with all that additional camber the traffic island gave you

And if you had an S20 hanging around I'm sure he'd been keen. If not I would!

yeah, but S20's are worth close to $100k, so don't think anyone would let it go cheap enough lol

Yeah missing the above trinkets, and also one front guard 'Skyline' Badge and the strip that goes through the middle of the Grille, but you can barely notice its missing, as the jee tee argh badge tends to steal your gaze.
Needs new Drums in the rear and less springs also.
The interior is really quite good, the black head-lining and dash are flawless!

Yeah he hit an island while playing with the heater, no damage to car of wheels apart from a bent strut. THANK FUCK! He uncovered a hoarded set of 280Z Struts to throw in as brakes werent the best.
Hate to say it but i think the new plan is to put Gloria on hold, finish Stroker 3.1 and put the new Triple Del'lortos on. The L28 in C10 would then go into Gloria sort of deal. Ultra stoked that its the good L28 with winged sump and Extractors!
