We found the car in 2012 shepparton For $1500, There was a Lime Green Metallic Car For sale with an 04 prefix I think, but we couldn't afford it at $7500,! (Harry's Estate?)

Few extra spot welds. Steel plate (drivers side). Check out the crack in the dash lower.

That looks a lot like a dodgy repair job more than anything else.

Don't know. Last known registration was in 1979. Cheers.

We still need to fix the parcel shelf but you can see why restoration was halted (Red flag). Have spares.

XGRT Hi how rare is the feb 72 brissi built smp with the houndstooth interior, my mate wishes to know, if you know anything about it i can get you the vin tags, chassis no etc etc, its located in melb, it would be great if you have any info on it, thanks

 

Not sure what all the cryptic posts of Blakes are about. But I know the Acacia Ridge built NSW Press Fleet XU1 was 1827-40X, it was completed on 20/1/72 though. There was another early 1827 Acacia Ridge car getting around too that someone had put the Press Flee car's rego plate on (PWH-161), not sure if it was 40Y or 40X.

Im just wondering if this thread is going to continue the way it went in the past.

It was a source of infinite laughs and head scratching previously.

HI blake i noticed the spot welds in the photo on the passenger side you have put up, how many spot welds are there all the way around the window area. thanks

[S pack]

Few extra spot welds. Steel plate (drivers side). Check out the crack in the dash lower. IMG_20250310_202155502_MFNR.jpg IMG_20250310_202057453_MFNR.jpg IMG_20250310_202116584_MFNR.jpg

Is there some significance in your GTR having extra spot welds around the side window opening? How many spot welds would a normal GTR have there?

[xgtr]

They used a different tip. Some warpage included.

We also found this piece of what looks to be MG covering the shifter hole.
