This car has been owned by me for ~9 years. Originally rusted parts of the body were cut out and new pieces welded in, the body was then painted in acrylic and rustproofed. The dash and instruments were restored. Except for some light damage in the left back bumper area the body has never been damaged. The car has always been garaged and has been developed over the years to be both a fun road car and a competent sealed circuit car with an emphasis on superb handling and excellent braking

Over time virtually every moving part has been replaced with genuine or Japanese new parts. Both the diff and gearbox have had their bearings and seals replaced as a precaution, all wheel, suspension and steering moving parts have been replaced, only the tailshaft is an original item. The car has not been used much in between the occasional sprint at QR, except to attend the Nationals at Shepparton in 2005. Its a hobby car, not a daily driver, built to be utterly reliable and has never broken down.

What with the 280ZX coupe project and two garage spaces for three cars, the 260 just has to go. It will not disappoint.
