Its had a bit spent on it in the USA and it's a better car than the 72 i sold
so hopefully it'll get the attention it deserves from someone!

I've just bought another little toy that the funds will go into. same family but a little brother for the RBZ.

plans are fix the few small issues and it'll probably sit around like the Z! nah hope not!

Its got a CA18DET in it and it needs the brakes and suspension sorting but as far as i know nothing major. Bought sight unseen (taking the punt as i usually do!) sometimes it pays off, like with the Z from the USA.

I'm wondering why trade me was even used. You have made "badhabit" a happy man. Enjoy the 510, what do you think of the intercooler? I had a 72 sss 510 and loved her look and drive. The front was a favourite part, sorry but that intercooler ruins it. Bet it goes hard though.
All Nissans are racecars.

weird how the market goes up and down. took me months to sell the '72 and just hours for this one!

Pleased it will go to a good home. :D I'll be holding it for a couple of weeks in auckland until it heads to palmy

I may look at doing another import! :D
not big money to be made, if any if i'm honest but i get a buzz from the search. :D
