One of these; It needed a tidy up and a fix up, just have to do the brakes all round, possibly get a disc machined and then change the rear muffler section. Take it for a WoF (like MOT) check, see how it looks. If it passes or needs f'all to pass I'll Reg (TAX) it and then proceed to take the springs out to be "adjusted" and put my Work Equip replica's on it, or my RS-Watanbe's.. more than likely the Work Equip replica's though. Any other minor mild thoughts/contributions.. by all means.. go ahead. Will take pics and progress pics if and when possible.

Yeah, I tried to find something more similar to mine.
It's a Series III, so looks exactly like that, hubcaps and all, except it's White over Grey. Will get pictures tomorrow perhaps.

Yay! Well done Kyteler. I'm not so keen on the facelift noses but they're still a fine car with a lovely engine.
My scrapyard-find SA-built one had leather and IRS, drove lovely. It's now in Holland with an enthusiastic owner, but I still regret not keeping that RB30E for my C210.
Amused that the wheeltrims suggest 5-stud wheels, but they're still 4x114.3 aren't they?

The wheeltrims suggest 6stud! ;D but they're indeed still the good ol' faithful 4x114.3mm. I much prefer the noses on these to the flatter earlier ones, much morepurposeful looking I think and shows the progression to the 32. Unfortunately, mine is an Aussie Assembled one, so.. Solid rear end and pretty standard throughout, cloth interior etc. It's a GXE as opposed to a Ti or a Silhouette. Also has the pillars and framed door windows, which I'm not a massive fan of. Still, I'm not complaining, it didn't cost me anything other than my time to fix it and well, obviously the brake pad costing and WoF & Reg. Which have yet to be dictated. I'm also keen on keeping the block for an RB30DE project, or even an RB30DS (where 'S' is designation for Carbs)

Nice.
I love how all Aussie cars needed to have a pic of the car towing a boat in the brochure.

Hopefully will look something like this... except with a front mounted (but leading to nowhere) Oil Cooler
