A little off topic but at the same time a little on-topic.

Buying a car at a Japanese auction.

Importing to your country is dependent upon country's regulations. If you're in the US, 25 years or older and you're in a safe zone.

love the c210s... wish we could have gotten them in the states

This is fantastic, I was literally just thinking about buying a C210 within the next few years, since they are more affordable than C10s and C110s and I still consider them very attractive. The C210, to me, is the perfect mix of classic '70s JDM style and '80s boxy goodness. What does a decent C210 go for anyways?

i would hurry if you want to buy one, everybody is thinking like you, c110 is expensive, lets buy a c210.

so they will be more and more expensive.

Sorry...The owner is not looking to get rid of them for any reason. I tried to save them already.

If you ever decide to sell the Japan let me know first!

That's a shame. Honestly, I'd be happy just to see one in person.

Hey guys sorry I havent updated this post in ages. It has arrived and currently being worked on by Brinkworth Customs out in Langley.

The whole car has been stripped and all the rust is getting taken care of at the moment.

The car will be put back together with s13 Suspension conversion an Apexi Coilovers upgrade. and totally redone interior with black leather and suede.

I will update with pics as soon as i get some free time.

Hi guys pretty new to this site but found this skyline which is the same as mine!Well close to anything I have seen! I own a 1978 c210 and I would really appreciate any information on it. I have had trouble putting pics on here of it, something about the quota being full?
I'd like to know how much these are worth original? Mine only has 63000 kilometres on the clock, 3 owners, 2 in the same family and a close mechanic family friend. The interior is immaculate and the paint work in great condition too! I have owned it since it had 35000 on the clock. Love the car but would really like to know any info. I will try and get pics on! Thanks

I'd love to see that, I'm a Sydney(ish) person.

I was begining to think you were pipe dreaming but glad to hear that the dream is real. I'd be pinching myself daily if I ever owned one. Super nice find. Keep posting.
