nice Christmas tree

I've been disassembling my front indicators lately to clean them up. The gaskets are rock hard so I've ordered some more from Japan. The lenses I can use so ill polish those up. The plugs are stuffed so ill cut them off and send the housing off for plating. Blue zinc is closest to factory. Hopefully I can drop these off soon. I'll use some novus plastic polish on the lenses

The stuffed plug. Narva should have something similar

Some more goodies came today as well

2nd hand rear windscreen. Because my coupe didn't come with one. The condition is great!!!

Nissan tool kit

NOS breakdown light

Repro badges for the coupe

And some very original books to go along with the car. These came from my C210. Never seen other ones of these

Got some key blanks coming from Thailand, so ill pull the ignition barrel and get keys cut soon.

And I'm chasing a tail light panel that's correct for the GTR look.

I've sourced a drivers side eyebrow so only need the top windscreen piece then ill have it all. That then can be boxed up and sent for polishing

Plenty happening slowly. Stay tuned

nice find mate! is this Facebook page a private page? ive been looking for some local pages with fellow 240k owners but cant find any!

Yeah it is a closed group. You require admin authority to get in. It's called C110 skyline owners & resto club. Great place to swap knowledge and find those hard to find bits. Lots of the guys here are on there.

Love to have you come in c110 coupe!!

Recently just got over 100 members from all over the world! And we all are mad for Kenmeri's and Yonmeri's

I see you've worked it out now Kent

G'day all. Thought I'd post my coupe. Yes, I finally managed too find one.

The only problem was it was located in NSW.

Met Glen, the owner and we got talking all things Datsun. The car was a local car sold by a Datsun dealer new in a town called Gunnedah in NSW. A local fella kept it as his daily until upgrading years later. The coupe went to live in the shed. Then the children learnt to drive in her in their early teens. The blue was boring though so the ok was given to customize the paint. After this, the coupe again went to live in the shed until recovered a couple of years ago.

Just read where you found your coupe.

Cant believe you found a coupe in Gunnedah of all places. When I did my apprenticeship in the Hunter valley, a school mate got his up at Gunnedah in the local coal mine. Spent quiet a threw weekends with him up there and Tamworth in the eigthies. He actually found a couple of australian rambler hornets in a shed on a farm. Lucky bastard.

Goodluck with the restoration, a truly lucky find going by the photos.

i Sure have it is a bit strange having a whole community of people with real names rather than screen names.. it is going to take a while to work out who is who

Tell me about it

that was my equivalent of apologising upfront for acting like i don't know you guys on there

Apology accepted Kent .

Chas the car was located in a little town called Manilla, which is about 10 mins north of Tamworth. I've spent a bit of time up Tamworth way as well in my Military days back in 2002-03 so i was surprised to be heading back there to pick up the car.

I have a few things to share coming up just waiting on their arrival, so stay tuned
