Very Rare Datsun 260C Coupe - spotted for sale in the UK - originally a South African car. It's a factory RHD Import. In the original advertisement the seller noted that the car is very solid underneath but will need a bit of a tidy up, specifically the interior.. Car starts runs and drives.

Mechanics - Good original straight six engine which starts and runs no problem. Carb may need a bit adjustment due to the different climate but overall it runs not too bad. Auto box is fine. Brakes work but could do with a bleed. Rear electric windows will need looking at an car will need a good checkover.

Interior - Seats will need retrimmed and are a bit of a mismatch. Door cards are ok. Crack on dashtop due to sun damage

Great to see there are so many of these surviving in South Africa!
