...oh deary me...!

I've seen these quote also attributed to Oliver North...(think that was his name?)

The '77 260z I looked at last weekend had a N42 head. Why do you ask? Is this your 2+2?

Looks like a 2+2 to me.

Yep, I'm planning to go if I can

Heh, heh! How about "Keep lookn!"

Hey 26, Was that car a 240? Next time you see it, you could leave a note on the windscreen on my behalf! Haydn.

mmmm, how long has it been there?

Craig, Is that the one Cuong was talking about? Is it metallic brown/copper in colour with 260Z alloy wheels? Where on the freeway? Hayden.

I like the look of the white car, the Green and Gold looks too much like a Camaro!

Steve, I have the details of the 260z...I'll get them to you soon. The #38 car really does exist - I saw the chassis number. It is engineless at the moment but was running as recently as 3 months ago. It is silver in colour, has a vinyl roof and sunroof (yuck!) and generally in tatty condition. However, it is in better shape than other 'low-number' cars I've seen in Perth.

$7850.00. Look for Datsun 260Zs in www.autotrader.com.au

As with car drivers, its the few bad eggs that give a that spoil it for everyone. I rode a bike for 12 years and gave up the fast and silly phase early on. Who needs it? Its enought to know that your 1000cc totally stock pushrod engined machine will blow 99% or tintops into the weeks... no need to prove it. Something else observed amongst my mates was that riding bikes made us better car drivers - more alert, more aware of our surroundings and the road conditions. I've often thought that drivers should do a compulsory rider training course to sharpen their skills...

Where was that one advertised? I looked at a 260 2-seater on the weekend. The guy had it repainted about 18 months ago (metallic copper) and they didn't do a very good job at re-sealing the rear hatch glass. As result, the interior of the car (which is not stored under cover) was absolutely sodden. The carpets and underlay are actually heavy to lift because they have soaked up so much water! The car was a '77 model, orig engine etc etc, but getting a bit too high tech for my liking(!) - it had A/C for goodness sake! He also had a rough-looking 240 which ha was planning to build up into a clasic racer. Interstingly it was chassis no.38... a nice low number!

an ambitious but highly commendable plan! You can add my car (when I get one!) The WA site is in its infancy and I'm not the webmaster for it. I am however trying hard to raise its profile. Try the site again when you can, its usually up.

Steve, Are you starting a register? If so, you should post the fact on www.wazcars.com... a group of Perth-based Z-enthusiasts. Their website is just starting out but they have a good groups of core members as I unserstand. Hayden.

ahhhhhhh, its baaaack!

Ozdat may be up but the classifieds section is still down: http://www.ozdat.com/classifieds/index.html

Its the hand-throttle. The lever was deleted on later models.

Congratulations! Now you just need to stay out of the car long enough to post some more pics!

There is a number stamped into the firewall in the engine bay on the driver's side (RHD) just below the rubber bonnet seal. It should match the engine bay plate... I guess what it amounts to is that all of the numbers you will need to see are under the bonnet!

...and I tried to email them using the 'email us' at the bottom of the page...it bounced. Doesn't sound too good

Nup - still can't get past the "For sale Clasifieds" link.
