Everything is relative. If I could afford to, I would buy this KB10 and ship it here in a heartbeat. I'd gladly pay the asking price to get a solid car.
But then I would also probably pay strong money for a solid 1200 ute too. They might still be common there but here they most definately are not and would command a price equal to or higher than a coupe. Even as an unfinished project I expect I could get a very good price for mine.
Last year I paid the equivelent of nearly $3000AU for a datsun 160J SSS (KP710) that needs restoring. 5 years ago that same car would have been a third of that, but now people are taking notice of the cars at last and there are few left (6 in the case of the KP710).
I know of at least four cars (Three Dattos and a bellet) that have come into the UK from Australia in the last 18 months and as the demand increases people will start to look abroad to get these cars more and more. It's becoming a global market.
