New Member - Brisbane Australia

Post by Peter_arura »

Just joined and live in Brisbane Australia. Do not have a project currently other than two 1983 IT490 enduro bikes. Looking to get into these models as time permits.

Welcome Peter, there are quite a few Aussies on the board so they should be able to help you find something suitable.

Hi Peter and welcome. The search can be long for a roadster is oz but worth it. If you find what you like get to it quick as good ones don't last long. Cars also come up regularly for sale through the clubs. The NSW club has members in all states and produces a bimonthly rag. http://www.datsun.org.au

Hi Peter and welcome from another Aussie. I actually poached my car from Queensland.

A 1965 SP 310 came up for sale today through the club just today. If interested contact me and I'll forward the details.

Come to the Nationals mentioned and introduce yourself.

That black one is good value. Drive train alone is worth about 5k. You could sell the drive train to restore to 1600 spec or drop lots on the full resto.

That's 4 cars being sold at the same time. Very unusual to see. At the time I bought mine it was the only one being offered. I lucked out as it was a pretty good one to start with. The black one seems a good one to start with at a good price. I paid more than twice that.
