That looks like an RA28 body. If so, weren't they 1976-1978 vintage?
Or was the RA25 an earlier (Japan only) model?

Not many left around either. I remember in the early 90's they were all the rage with modifying .... but hardly any left now.

There were some tuff R100's out there though ... I think the reason why there's not many left was due to many putting in decent 12A and 13B's into them ... and then wrapping them around trees/power poles.

I do remember seeing a canary yellow one back when i was on my P's ... in Campbelltown of all places. Was in front of me ... loud as anything. They guy driving it just stomped on it ... and he has trouble keeping it within 2 lanes (all without lifting off). They were so light ... god it went like a cut snake though.

My old KE55: 5speed, dual throat carby, borg warner 4.11. Good times.


and my grandpa had a MS85 crown from new - leather, electric windows and cruise from factory in 1975.

[aussiblue]

I love my 1980 LC Lancer that I have owned since new but I guess I would swap it for a mint 260Z coupe (not the much more common 2+2).

[damo76]

Years ago i used to have a white 1970 mitsubishi colt, with a powerfull 1.1 litre engine, lol.
Uggliest car but it used to get me everywhere with superior fuel economy.
This pic was of the net.

[Fev]

Any early Z car is a fav of myself. I'd also love a KE30 rolla, an early skyline (any of the old shapes)

[snottygobble]

she fly's

[GreenMachine]

Datsun 240K - you'd do it like a mini-Mopar with a bumblebee stripe..

[Auturbo6]

My old rally car!

[Riksta]

What is it with the mirrors right down the front quarter panels? Talk about eye strain!

Nice KE20 there Auturbo6. I miss my KE20. Was my first car, paid $750 cash for it back when I was 15. I've tried finding one today for the same price without the same luck :( If I ever find out who flogged it and crashed it...

[starkersEB]

heres a couple of my faves

Another 1600, my fave coulor Honey Brown. I had a supercharged 1600 but white in colour I still hate myself for selling it. I am looking for another at the moment if anyone knows of any bargains ;)

Ke10 rolla


Datto 1000 (mainly cos this one was mine)

[XR_6falcon]

These two... even though the R32 isnt really old school

[Noddy]

[Zero_PSI]

HR31 Coupe. Would swap my left nut for one.

[Polyal]

The R31 coupes are actually not that hard to come by, and seem to be around the $6-10k mark which is pretty good buying. A turbo one would make a good track car.
