Hi guys, those of you who read my introduction post, will be aware that my goal is to buy a C130 200L six. I realise they are somewhat rare these days and don't frequently come up for sale but thanks to my dad starting my obsession with Datsuns especially this model I have to have one. So what I need to know is, what sort of budget am I looking at for either one needing the love it deserves and also for one that's good to go? Just ball park amounts. Also has anyone heard of one that might be going up for sale any time soon? What are parts like to get hold of and generally any advice you guys might have. Thanks for reading guys, all advice welcomed. Thanks. Stu.

There are two 2 door ones known to be in existance in the UK, or were, until a guy from the Netherlands bought it on ebay, was it a coupe or four door you were after?

Hi mate, it's definitely got to be a 4 door.

You could always chat with Datman on here who may be able to source one for you from abroad as he has many contacts. Or you could (as I do so many times) go and hunt down the buyer of this advert www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C516763 |

Thanks for the advice mate, from what I've read, Datman seems to be the go to guy so I think I'll drop him a line. I know they are pretty rare these days, if I can't find one I'll be on the hunt for an 810 180b or a mint 910 and get some nice slot mags I think. Cheers. Stu.

Hi guys,
Cheers for the info Paranoid, I am really envious, I saw a picture of your silver one on one of your posts, it looks amazing, if you ever decide to down size your collection, by selling any one of them, please message me and let me know. Cheers mate. Stu.
Thanks for the heads up on the 910 Datsfun, my budget is dependent on the car really, as I already have 3 cars, my girlfriend is insisting I sell one to provide room and funds towards a Datsun for summer so if a c130 comes up my budget depending on its condition would be higher than what I'd be willing to pay for a 910. Cheers mate. Stu.
