Silvia 2.0 OHC Diesel Arrived today

[Stephanie S12]

HI Guys,

Picked this little "begger" up today, the person who out bid me on e-bay didnt bother to get in touch with the owner so he sent me an e-mail and asked if I was still interested.

It has a pretty good shell with no sunroof and is fitted with a 2.0 non turbo "Very Slow" Diesel engine. Its a bit bashed about but it has a few good bits such as the wheels, doors, bonnet, drivers wing (rust free), a tow bar, original 2.0 gearbox, prop and diff etc. There is also the classic orange seats and black door trims, carpet, dash and roof lining.

My Boyfriend has a 2.0 DOHC engine and is suggesting restoring the car and fitting it with the 2.0 engine as he believes the car is to rare to scrap.

Thing is I have been searching for ages for a wing and a bonnet etc - bit of a dillema.

What do you guys think ?

If you restore then you could be one of only a very few people owning an Fj20 in the country!. Great car but the orange seats would have to go!

Hi Pukka,

I got the car for £100 and I think it was a bit of a bargain as it is going to live again.............!

restore it and keep the orange interior as it will be worth alot more especialy in the future as every one gets rid of it no one will ever know what it looked like just get some vinyl seat covers made as the soor carsd are ok
