Bargain for Aussie 260z wheels..

Someone maybe able to get a steal for a set of Aussie export 260z wheels. If the price stays this low someone will be getting a great deal even if shipping was a couple hundred dollars in USD. They would not be my choice of wheel, but for anyone interested and don't mind doing a little work to make them pretty again, then this is your chance.

Good luck,

No, these wheels were put on european exports and the Australian cars.

I have seen these wheels on cars here in the U.S. plus here is a scan of an U.S. 1977 Datsun sales brochure showing a 280Z with the same rims. (Please excuse the fold in the brochure)

That's interesting because I have never seen those wheels on a US spec Z before. I thought that all of the 280z's came with steel wheels and hubcaps. Interesting find. I could be very wrong about this as I know very little about 280z's, so please do not get offended.

Take care,

Ben

No offense taken, Ben. I just knew I had seen these rims on a few cars here (US). There was a lady at the Mossy Nissan show last year with a 78 like mine. It had those rims on it and she said they were original. Here's another picture of a US ad showing a 78 BPE with those rims.
