Wtb C210 Bits : Doors, Trim Peices Ect

[racsov500]

K ive got a coupe in need of some love and some parts

tailshaft

pair of good doors - no rust, working latches, locks and key. no glass or door cards needed. I know im asking alot but my doors are shit and a good pair will fix a few problems at once

alternatively, a passenger side latch assembly that works

boot lid striker, not the latch, the bit that screws onto the bootlid

headlight surrounds and grill in good nick

manual gear stick boot for centre console

roof light console thing

rear drivers side seatbelt in brown

an uncracked dash? lol

a complete stock engine, flywheel and gearbox (maybe)

more as i pull more apart and find more broken shit

im in brisbane but will pay for post for smaller stuff.

woah,,,,,

you gonna have a heap of fun trying to get all that!!!

if it was 4 door it may be easier, as ther is one at the dapto pick a part wreckers (near woolongong)

i was up there about 3 or 4 weeks ago, even had hotplates in the boot, all the chrome looked fine too

they are pretty pricey though

bmup

add a indicator/wiper switch assembly to that...

think im going to be better off getting a parts car..

[Silent Shadow]

a parts cars would be a definite plus! considering that car was a parts car in a past life lol.

[CsaEvents]

would a c110 or 200b indicator/wiper switch assembly suit?

[racsov500]

bump. no rush but would like to get this shit as its what im missing..

pair of good doors

engine complete, box n tailshaft ect

how easy is it to get a r30 l24e running or are they a nightmare

You have almost no chance of finding decent c210 coupe doors. You may have to weld new sections into what you have, and finish them with locks etc from a donor car.

Funnily enough, I just picked up a rusted out C210 sedan. Unfortunately its auto, its in Vic, and shipping big stuff like the L24 to QLD is going to be painfully expensive. r30s with L24 engines are pretty common (2 on ebay this week) and don't go for much money, you could probaby find something closer to home. Better yet, you could invest in a rusty 280zx or Nissan Patrol and try to grab a complete L28. Finally buying rings, bearings and a gasket kit and rebuilding the engine you already have isn't a bad idea either.

If you still need any little fiddly bits (locks, boot striker, roof console etc) that wont cost you a fortune in postage, let me know.
