Go to Nissan and scroll down to C210. I inquired about the side windows, price was $400 plus shipping to WA. Yep but no thanks.

Apparently some mug offered him $2200 without motor and box, I'm sure it was no one from this site. Not when there's two for sale for about 1.5 grand more.

Still, If i were in NSW I'd probably purchase the boot and bonnet. Nice little wheels on it. If some one does decide to purchase it for stripping and on selling let me know.

If you can get it for a $800 it would be worth the effort to part out MAYBE

And it's got rally type seats, probably ripped and soiled. Especially the passengers one LOL. I'd like to know if they've used the original rails to suit the after market seats. Them I would def buy. Has anyone done a after market seat change retaining the original rails? I remember this question being asked before but saw no real outcome. I'm keen to get rid of my 65 kilo worth of seat and transplant.

Ricky,

Sports Classic are out in Ted Bullpits area (Kingswood Country) near Penrith/Castlereagh and he is the most expensive wrecker of old school Zeds & Skylines on earth and in most cases the parts can be imported from USA or Japan cheaper than buying them from him.

A short time back Stewart Wilkins needed an F54 block and he had one in a complete engine and he wanted $1200.00 for the F54/P90 engine complete.

Everything he has, he thinks is GOLD PLATED & diamond encrusted, or that's how he prices them. He rallies Zeds and he is known in the business as a rip off and is avoided like the plague.

Nothing surprises me about him these days.

Cheers, D

Not to a C210, but I have in my R30. I put a pair of Sparco (bottom mount) seats in. I just made up a steel frame which bolts to the rails, and some strap which goes across the frame where the seat mounts are.

Seats are 7 kg each (IIRC), and once you add the rails/frames, probably end up around the 10 or 11 kg mark.

Thanks for that feed back Matty, 10kg sounds pretty good.
