New Zealand Datsun Club

That auction is worded like the seller is a car dealer. (edit, it is)
Does look like a sweet car though.

What a minter:....

Thanx Kitch. Seeing as I didn't get anything at the auction I was going to just quietly pick this up before anyone else saw it.

That 1600 seems too cheap!

It won't be road legal, and he did suggest viewing. I'd image she's pretty beat up with a tired engine... I'd love to be able to take it back to bare metal and restore/do it up, although a lot of the guys have 1600's who are doing the same, so maybe time for something different for me

The worst cars to take back to bare metal and rebuild are ex rally/race 1600's!

I should know, mine was one and it was a fucken joke how much was wrong with it under the paint. So unsafe and a weak chasis I would stay away from all ex race/rally cars for restoration projects.

BTW, I too was eyeing that Datsun up under the radar, but I am dreaming and pretty broke.

For anybody wanting a Z at the right price this is good buy.

Auto to Manual swap is easy and with a little work a very good handling car

Very 80's, but very nice! Looks quite well looked after, and gotta love the 'star wars' speedo
