This car is so stuck in my head.
Has anyone got any build details or links to threads on it or with it in please?
I have tried the search on here but with no joy.

Hi Tim,
I took the first three photos. I've got some more I can dig out for you....I'll have a look a bit later and post them up. As far as I know, Kev doesn't have a build thread for it?
Hope all is well?

the pics are in briandamaged's 'boys are back in town thread' which should be in the award nomination thread if I had to be brutally honest, I would not go for a U11 series bluebird - I'd go for the later uk built T72 series - they are easier to find, easier to get bits for in breakers / from banger racers / ebay, and going on the trouble I've had finding tinware for mine, just generally easier front suspension can be sorted by popping the nissan strut topmounts onto golf coilovers, while at the back, there's enough length on the springs to just chop em, or if you are fussy you could coilover convert them without too much hassle I reckon - the only thing to watch when dropping them is the front crossmember and sump hang very low, so something to consider there also, beware of the rot in weird places - inner rear arch above the fuel filler (rear seatbelt mount) seems to be prone, seen it on 3 seperate blueys now - including mine I'd say a tidy T72 saloon, dropped not mega low, with some rwd offset wheels (scimitar, mgb etc) and you'd be winning all over the place! EDIT - and an oil cooler
