Hi All,

I'd consider myself a muscle car guy but when I analyse it I've owned more Japanese brands than anything else, 3 Datsuns (1200 Ute, 180B, 83 Skyline 4-door Hatch), 3 Subarus (2005 Liberty, 2010 Forrester & 2015 Liberty 3.6R).  I've also had an old 67 ZA Fairlane, VX Commodore & BA Falcon.  My pride a joy at the moment is a fairly original 69 Mustang Mach1(351W, 4-speed car).  

However, I have come across a bit of a barn find which I have identified as a C210 Skyline which I think is a 77 model.  Having a bit of a soft spot for Datos I think this could make an interesting project car.  Get it running, back on the road and just have a bit of fun with it.

But I have no idea what these are worth, if anything much at all.  It is an automatic, 2-door car and it seems all complete, owner has prime painted it but it has not had a full strip down, rather a closed door paint job was the plan, (remove bumpers, some trim etc).  I've been advised that it runs, but I'd say hasn't run in 15+ years.

Anyway, if possible I'd appreciate some opinions on what a genuine value would be (what would you offer).  Photos are few as I snapped a few quick ones at a garage sale.

cheers

Rob

I expect there is a bit of rust but not too concerned, I like the rat look.

I haven't bought it yet, the original owner is deceased and the family want to shift the car as the house is for sale.  Just tyring to work out what these are worth.  If it's more than I want to spend I'll try to assist the family to sell it.  Any ideas?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
