Although it's a tough desicion, I'm thinking of selling my 1969 Datsun Fairlady roadster. These are very rare in the UK (there are less than a dozen here). This one is from California so as you can image there is very little rust in it. It's a 1600... the engine is an OHV with twin SU carbs that puts out 96bhp and 103 ft/lbs.
It needs carpet and some bits of interior and chrome doing as well as paint but the car runs great and drives. Parts availability for these cars is very good and you can buy nearly everything for them apart from body panels. For an MOT all it will need is the front brake calipers sorting (Volvo 244 ones fit) and a repair to the lower wing mounting on the drivers side. I have a straight front bumper for it and some new anti roll bar bushes and brake jhoses. It comes with a hood frame (needs a new hood) and a hardtop as well.
I restored Fairlady is worth about £6000+ so I'm going be asking £1800 or near offer for mine (which is what I bought it for). Like I say, it needs some work but nothing major at all. It could be made roadworthy and useable pretty easily and it's a most unusual and very rare car. It will come with a UK registration as that's already sorted. I will even repair the wing mount and the bit of rust in the rear quarter (the only bit!).
Here's some pics of it....
