AKWIKZ Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Guys, My '74 Skyline has finally been loaded and shipped out. She left port this morning. It's been killing me with the wait, but the replica GT-R parts turned out great and were well worth it. She should be here at the end of the month. Check out a few quick shots of the new parts. She's not quite the prom queen yet, but once she gets a new outfit (paint) and shoes (Wats) I'll bet she turns heads. I have a line on another one that my friend is going to look at this weekend. We might just send that one up too. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Mind me asking how much this is setting you back? I've wanted one of those a long time and hope to own one someday. Let's just hope japan doesn't run out. Car looks great btw. Well... I see the potential, so to me it looks great. Others might not agree... yet.

AKWIKZ Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 The best bang for your buck is one from Australia, not Japan. These are getting pricey in Japan along with all the other classic cars these days. Even when you factor in getting the replica GT-R parts, an Aussie model will cost you half of what one in Japan will run you in similiar shape. Just for example, I found a 4 door '76 in Japan. It had serious rust and was still going for $2500. For a rusted out 4 door. Factor in everything, and $6k is a safe amount for one with all of the GT-R parts landed here in the U.S. Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollum Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 $6k doesn't sounds too bad to me. I'm not sure I'd personally want ALL the GT-R replica parts, though that's not a bad place to start. So australia it is. Gotta be a 2 door though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
