Well i thought i would post up some pics of my c210 which i picked up a little while ago for only $1500, It's a great price considiring ewverything on the whole car works and perfectly. Witch in this car is hard to find. Also came with the skyline centre caps for steelies and twin side draft carbys aswell.

It's a great car. The interior is great. It's so clean and nearlly everything is there. Minus the little switches for the lights on the headliner.

The body needs abit of work as you can see. a few rust spots here and there. I just plan to bogg and/or fibreglass repair them. Also im just painting it in the plain white it came from factory with, Im going to attempt to paint it myself and see how i go. Being white i can see how i can stuff it up that bad.

The motor is just the run of the mill stock L24 mated to a auto transmission which is soon to be a 2L turbo motor and manual gearbox. Trying to make it into a c211/c210. Just somthing that i nice to cruise in and get's the looks icon_razz.gif

Now so far iv'e just taken apart the front end and fenders, started painting the inner fenders matt black just to protect it from rust and plus i don;t want the white to be spayed there, cause i quite like that black in there.

It's gonna be a decent project for me. My plans are to finish it before christmas or before this year is over. Working away means i get a solid 4 weeks till christmas to work on it with no work commitments at all. so i should fly through it.

My plans which what i want to get done in the near future are ...

.fix rust and prep for paint ( just gotta bogg the holes as i can;t weld and don't want to pay someone to do it, If rust comes back in a few years il have the money to get it done properly by a pannel beater)

. paint car lol

. have a decent old skool stereo, all gear used is from early to late 90's

. Paint my 240z alloys and get some slightly streched tyres

.hopefully find some mr30 front struts and calipers etc...

. give the engine a service with all new oils and filters and what not

. Either tune the stock carby that;s on it. or chuck on my twin side drafts

. replace the worn out bushes ( only the ones i can do at home )

. Just basiclly give the whole car a genral tidy up ready for rwc ( must restrain from getting dodgy roady icon_wink.gif )

My future future plans ( i know it;s abit early but i got my mind set on what i want to do )

. L20et and manual conversion

. R31 rear disc brake conversion

. some jdm hot plates

. jdm fender mirrors

. jdm fibreglass guard flares

Hopefully by the end of all this it will be one good daily driver/ show car icon_smile.gif

Here are some pics at the old owners, It's just chilling waiting for me to come along and take it away icon_biggrin.gif

    • I like their veal scallopini.
    • Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge
    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
    • Thanks for coming back to post the update, maybe it will help out the next person!
    • Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.
