kpgc10 lookalike

Where is it?

If I'm not mistaken, that car is in the United Kingdom ( near Swindon ).

It's a KGC10 ( no 'P' prefix in the VIN ) GT or GT-X that has had a little of the GT-R clone treatment.

It is indeed frighteningly rusty. I went to have a look at it, and found that most of the normal rust points on the underside were covered in a mixture of old Japanese newspapers, stick-on aluminium foil and fibreglass repair paste. I was able to put my arm through the body structure as far as my elbow in several places......

The owner bought it from a Japanese auction through an agent based in the UK, and was right royally ripped off with no sign of recourse. Very sad.

This car is a good example of how something that doesn't look too bad in a photo can turn out to be an absolute shed.

Ah, cheers for the info, Alan. I happened to discover this picture on a uk skyline forum, perhaps you were one of the posters there? I remember hearing the same, that the purchaser was utterly screwed over. From the photo its very hard to discern whether it is completely shagged or not. Caveat emtpor indeed.
