Awesome restoration
Don't suppose there are any left over bits you'd part with?
I need the sill trims from both sides and a pair of front overriders.
Would be most appreciative if you could sell them to me as there is nothing I can find in WA

Mate the spare parts car is / was better than the majority of the 330's in NZ lol. As per above i hope you kept all the spare parts even if only for yourself

Unfortunately I kept nothing. Everything is either new or rebuilt, so she needs nothing now or in the future. So all the left overs went to the scrap yard. All I kept are the original wheels and hubcaps.

Can you advise where you purchased new parts as I'm happy to buy new but Nissan Aust carry no stock of the parts I'm after.
Shame that the donor car went to the scrapyard with hard to get bits and pieces on it

Ebay is your friend. A lot of NOS parts pop up regularly.

Agreed, bought a lot of my NOS parts from there but no sill trims or overiders
