1974 Datsun 260z
RB25 Skyline engine with an RB20 Trans.
Jegs 4 core radiator.
twin electric blow through fans.
All steel body mods. Not a kit, one off hand fabbed metal.
Gunmetal Panasport wheels
Dunlop FM 901 tires.
Sprins and struts but not sure what type, were there when I got it.
Autopower roll bar
Fuel cel
Metal dash with full Autometer gauges.
Painless wiring harness.
Factory seats in great condition.
Momo wheel.

Car is different, draws a lot of attention. It's an older custom though so the paint is not tip top by any stretch. Has some rust here and there starting to show that can be easily attended too when car is repainted, same with a few dents. Has some Bondo due to molding of the flares into the car. Everything was hand done back in the late 70s. Car is fast and loud. Has no exhaust, just a dump tube coming out of the O2 housing and pointed to the ground. Loud inside the car, not so bad outside but sounds just mean as all get out. All swap fab and swap done by Top Hat Performance. RB25 is stock and runs great.

$6500 bucks. Call anytime 770-725-4595 home/865-919-5841 cel. Ask for John.

Thanks

awsome swap, you could probably of pulled more money if you had kept the stock body, just repainted it though.

Read the description. If you know anything about body work, 30+ years will AT LEAST make the bondo wavy.

I'm partial to old skool... Sexy car.

Yea some of it is bumpy but it is the stuff you will need to redo anyway, the bondo to mold stuff in is 30 years old. The paint is the old school Laquer stuff I believe.

Send me photos of the S-10. I doubt it but I never know what I like til I see it.

Purple Cobra?

Are you referring to the gang of 3 kids that tried to race my friend today when he was bringing my car back? All I can say to that is LOL.

I think the story went you guys (if it was you) revved on my friend (in traffic by Discovery Mills and the Gwinnet Civic center I think that place is) and he wouldn't race them and they got pissy. Correct me if i'm wrong cause I wasn't there and got the info second hand.

But all in good fun, they (you maybe) might have got him but who is stupid enough to race in the middle of traffic by one of the busiest intersections on Sugarloaf which is well known for swarming with the Fuzz. Not him it seems.

Anyway, I pick up my Hachi tomorrow, someone get this before the Ebay monster claims it.

Im not the driver but well run you anywere, if you need more time for the twins to spool.

He didn't tell you that he also yanked on the car and tried to race us he wouldnt after that cause we pulled him nasty as hell, i have a vid if you want to see it. Ricer flyby if i remmber what its called. As him...if he tells you otherwise, i have a vid.

Low tune and 4 gear yank, what about a corolla?

Glides

Lol yea, like I said, 2 sides to a story so no harm done. But it's a stock RB making 230 so that Cobra, if it has mod one, better beat it. If not then it's garbage.


Yea, I bought the green Corolla from Tophat that was in the picture thread.
