NewZed Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 Might have better luck on classiczcars.com. More traffic and there are some parts traders there. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calZ Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 I'm in Los Angeles and have a carbed N42 still in my car that's a classic "ran when parked five years ago". It ran well, but has a couple broken exhaust studs and some leaks, so would be a good candidate for a freshen up. Im not sure on value. I believe a few years ago Datsun Spirit advertised a $900 core charge, but now you have to call them to get that info. Facebook Marketplace and eBay generally show over $1k. I'm open to offers, but i think around $1k is a fair starting point if you're interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy455 Posted November 20 Author Share Posted November 20 Sadly, I don't have the ability, equipment or manpower to pull an engine from a car. Thanks tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Sorry, didn't mean to give you that impression. I would pull it and drop it in your pickup bed/trailer with the engine hoist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy455 Posted November 25 Author Share Posted November 25 Thank you for your response. Looks like I closed a deal over the weekend for a block that's not far from my home here in L.A. Next question.. You know how to delete a post here? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhm Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 @Sandy455, glad to see you found what you needed. As a "Member", I'm not sure if you have the ability to Delete a post. Do you see a symbol (3 dots) in the upper right corner of your posts? If so, the drop-down menu should give you the options to "Edit", "Hide", "Delete", etc. If that doesn't work for you, I can "Hide" or "Delete" your post for you; but honestly, you may just want to leave it. Folks often refer back to old posts for reference or historical context. (e.g. Someone else in similar situation as you sees that @jeffer949 and @calZ have an N42 that they might be willing to part with.) LMK how you'd like to proceed.

Sandy455 Posted November 25 Author Share Posted November 25 Thank you. No. It appears my only option is to edit my post. But that's fine to leave it for history's sake. All good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
