Dude you will love my two sss's was a one ownner 73 with early indicators pretty much standard, the other is a late 73 sss prc rally car, L18, twin 45 webbers, 240k 5sp R180 locked 5.1. Both are in Newcastle in storage while I am overseas. both funnily enough are Orange with clean rust free bodies, I also have a complete car in spares.

Looks like Newcastle is the home of the 180B SSS

I'm doing one up as well.

Yeh, Its funny I almost rang home to check the garage wasn't empty when I saw thar orange one! Last Datsun I saw was a cherry!

Keep the pics rolling mate, always interested in a 180b sss buildup. Good choice of motors to.

If I could reduce the resolution on a few photos i'd list them, also of a sweet photo of a sweet two door 610 i saw in calafornia

Yeh, Mitch I'd already put two and two together, the alloy cage will go ok for you. I recomend you make an aluminium parcel tray.
Had a funny one this week, I always wondered what would happen if you got caught speeding in the USA on an OS drivers lic. anyway basically they want put you in Lock-up till you make bail (pay your fine) so you don't do a runner, Luckily he couldn't get a magistrate and was in a hurry so he gave me a ticket I have to plead guilty on and forward to court.
And until then I was so smug doing 85mph on the Interstate with the rest of the traffic.

Hey Mitch, How are you going with the build up, what are you doing with the grey 4 door? Got a new toy this week, A Nissan Sunny SR, 1.6 16v twin cam. looks like a 2 door pulsar sss, Zippy round town, gets along well on the motorway, and capable to ferried to france for week trips round Europe! Only 4 610 SSS's over here, I feel greedy having two in storage.
