I have just been looking as I had a link from the vendor. It is really nice, not really messed with example from what I can see. Even has yellow paint on some of the suspension hardware from factory.

Wow thats nice! It reminds me that there is one here in Vancouver. The guy (I can't remember his name at the moment) that owns(d) the Z Shop has or had a Silvia in the same colour if I recall. It had it's engine out and rebuilt and the body was in the rafters the last time I saw it probably 10 years ago. I wonder what happened to that one.

Spectacular, and rare(r) than a 67.5 2000, they only made 500 or so. Thanks for sharing.

Reserve not Met at $38k.
The listing, imho, could have been better.

Not a single photo of this gem in its natural habitat, outside in natural light. No photos of it driving.
Not a single driving video either.
And the seller posted a photo of a Lancia Fulvia in the gallery???
I don't get it.

Very nice car, but rare does not always equal $$$. Small market.
I remember when no one wanted the 1500s......

True. BaT is such a fickle place when it comes to Datsun auctions in general. Upside is the exposure.
