Mr Camouflage

OK, you asked for it. Some things for you to type into the search: ZG nose, ZG Flares, Z432, S20, rally clock, and passenger foot rest. Thats all I can think of for now.

I've been trying to find photos of the K that raced at bathurst, but cant find any.

They have a photo of a 240K on their website, but they dont say it's 'the' bathurst 240K, so I guess someone will have to ask them. http://www.nispares.com.au/Motorsport.htm

Yep it was Class C. Qualifying time was 0:2:55.7 I found a better link. http://nmrm.velocity.net.au/fact.cfm?ID_Race=15&

I think it came 7th outright. I'll be back with a link.... Ok I'll just edit this and add the details: Not sure what class it was in (Class C maybe), but here are the results: 1974 HARDIE-FERODO 1000 1st John Goss / Kevin Bartlett Ford Falcon XA GT (1st Class D) 2nd Bob Forbes / Wayne Negus Holden Torana LH L34 3rd Jim Richards / Rod Coppins Holden Torana LH L34 4th Colin Bond / Bob Skelton Holden Torana LH L34 5th Graeme Adams / Bob Stevens Holden Torana LJ XU1 6th Tony Farrell / Brian Reed Mazda RX3 (1st Class C) 7th Stewart McLeod / Doug Whiteford Datsun 240K 8th Bernie Haehnle / Geoff Brabham Mazda RX3 9th Ray Gulson / David Crowther Alfa Romeo GTV 2000 (1st Class 10th Mel Mollison / Bruce Hindhaugh Mazda RX3 17th Gary Leggatt / Peter Lander Morris Cooper S (1st Class A) source: http://www.ecn.net.au/~amib/bath-stat.htm

Hey Lachlan How did you get the woodgrain panel off the plastic part? Mine seems to be stuck on tight, and trying to pry it off seems to bend it.

Since this thread has been car-jacked, here's a mazda that I used to own. http://s9.photobucket.com/albums/a64/mr_camouflage/Mazda%20808%20coupe/th_808-6.jpg Bought for $15. Did all the panel and paint, and rebuilt the engine myself.

They dont suit Z's at all. 1950's british cars maybe, but not Z's.

Thats a good reason to ban human cloning research.

Just like this one: http://www.mazdaklubas.lt/failai/626_2/rx2.jpg

I have a 4 door. I've seen 4 others on the road (one of them is Toms).

1 Off. It's an RX2.

That looks like an R200 moustche bar to me. You should probably get a cureved transvers link bar too. Some homework reading for you: http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15869

I saw that some low-life was selling one of those tickes on ebay ealier in the week. Trying to profit from Steves Death is just wrong. The tickets were free in the first place. The price had gone up to 12 million dollars, obviously joke bids to try and teach the seller a lession. Imaging the final sale fee they would be charged by ebay, which would have been deducted form the sellers bank account regardless of whether the seller paid or not. They would then have to try and reclaim the money back from ebay via a non paying bidder dispute. Anyway it never got to that, ebay pulled the auction, and i presume, informed the police. I heard the seller was fined $2000. Not sure what the offence was. Scalping tickets is illegal isnt it? if so probably thats what the charge was.

C10? Theres one in Perth. - its for sale, if you have a spare $30 grand. http://www.c-red.com.au/stock/kgc10/index.shtml Also aarc240 (or whatever his moniker is) said there was a C10 coupe in a Dealer showroom back in the 70's (somwhere in SA i think he said), so if its still around, thats another.

To quote Cleveland from family guy: Oh, that's nasty! (I was talking about the picture of the rust, not what you said Jim )

Added backward too, aren't they? I Thought the thick end should be at the back so the point out at right angles to the car. (Sames as the indicators should be at the front. Not saying the indicators on this car are wrong, I cant tell from the photos).

Same story downunder. No L20A's either. A bit too anemic when compared to the other 6's on the market. Most aussie 6's of the time were around 3 litres.

People spell it Sylvia, because thats how the persons name is spelt - I should know, it's my mums name. Have you seen how its translated by the translation sites, like google, bablefish etc. It's often translated to Sil-beer. Also Fairlady often gets translated as Fair-ready

What you need to do is approach a Bodykit company, (Like the ones that do the VR ferrari kit for the S30) and have them buy one, and have it shipped to the USA, so they can take molds and reproduce it. Though I'm not sure about the legalities involved, re copyright etc. The alternative would be to get some foam blocks and carve up a blank, coat it in FG, and use that to make a mold.

So currently the forums reads: Sub-Forums: S30 Z Series - 240z, 260z, 280z, Zcar Conversions & Aftermarket, Datsun 240K How about : Sub-Forums: S30 Z Series - 240z, 260z, 280z, Zcar Conversions & Aftermarket, C Series Skyline (or Skyline C series). That covers all the current Skyline/240K people that post here I think (maybe with the exception of the Pre-C10 Skyline (cant recalll the exact chassis code), but I cant remember any owners actually posting here). Also it wont encourage newer skylines (R sereies - theres plenty of forums for them, www.r31skylineclub.com and www.skylinesdownunder.com etc ) and could not be confused with the S series Z. The distain Alan speaks of seems to be the reverse down under. Nissans are regarded fairly well, but Datsuns are regarded poorly, though of as rusted out thrashers and grandpa cars, except by people that own them, or know anything about cars.

The L20B is the 4 cyl versions designation isnt it. Hence the 200B Datsun that was powered by the L20B?
