After almost a year away in hospital, she has returned. No rust any more (although she was not too bad in the rust department), freshened engine, restored interior. She needs some paint and a few other things and she will be back to her former glory.

She is all matching numbers with books. I bought her from Tasmania. (So she has been for a sail compliments of Toll Transport.)

Original engine, top loader box and 9" diff. Skyline R32 4 pot brakes all round. HQ stud pattern.

And yes, 15" wheels. (Thought I'd get in before being asked.)
