hi i pick up my new car on sunday, a nissan c210 2 door coupe.
i dont know much about it yet other than it has the awful square rear lights lol
69000 miles with some mots to back it up.

heres a couple of pics

Congratulations! That's quite a lovely Skyline.

Square tail lights or not, I love it. Welcome to the forum. How did you acquire the car? Looks great.

well i picked the car up today, 150 mile journey home no problem
its done 6900 miles with plenty of old mots to back it up and the same owner since may 1980 !
i even have the original old log book and a service manual from 1984.
theres some surface rust here and there but no rot ive found as yet
couple of engine bay pics




i guess i better start a project thread soon

I see someone got bored, and had some red paint.

And yes, I'd start up a build thread for it.

Car looks great. I have a similar motor in my car. Currently a L24EFI in my daily driver. Is that the original placement of the fuse box? Looks very well maintained. I do consider myslef a purist but only to a certain extent.
If this car were mine:
-different tail lights
-different rims
-lower stance
-relocate the fogs on the bottom of bumper(change to Marchal)
-source rear deck wedge speakers
SAVE ALL ORIGINAL PARTS

It's not mine but I have a feeling this car is in good hands.

its already got big wedge speakers in the back, and the original tape deck in it and it works !
i have already chopped up the rear lights to make some better looking ones.
i am also going to have to cut some of the arches away once the extensions are here.
its having proper c210 arch extensions, c10 front and rear spoiler.
interior is immaculate but nasty browny colour so if i can dye the interior black it would be a bonus.

Nice work. It looks like you are not wasting any time. I'll keep tabs on your build in the Datsun thread.
