Hey everyone,
Thought id finally start a build thread for my coupe. Someone may recognize it as it had a sydney datsun club sticker on the back window and it was advertised on ebay before i purchased it. Its also a twin (sold by same dealer with same pack fitted) to the red gx replica that was advertised on ebay recently.
Its still in its original colour which is red, but with a black vinyl roof which ran nearly all the way over the boot. Its pretty rough, but not to rusty, so i think its a good one to start with.
Its got the standard a12 (matching number!!) 4spd, and mechanically the only thing modified appears to be front struts/brakes which are sunny struts, unknown disc, and hx girlock caliper.
Heres some pics of it at the moment/when i got it.
