Lowrider

I know I'm going to regret this, as it's without a doubt the most fun you will have behind the wheel of a car. I've never laughed so much while driving that I've had to pull over and get out to avoid crashing :wack:.
4 up, 20 mile an hour, popping, and you cannot imagine how much fun this car is. I've had people jump in the middle of the road with the full thwacks of respect :wack: I've had a woman hitch her miniskirt up and chase me down the road screaming to let her in, I've had countless offers of swaps there and then, I've had policemen laughing their asses off, I've never seen anything make people smile so much...

It's a 1972 Datsun 260c with full chassis modifications, 8mm thick sills, skid plates, modded sump, twin pump, and 4 ram system. I'm not that knowledgable on hydraulics, but I've driven this car enough to know it works very well.. I've fitted a catch tank for the hydraulic fluid and that's it..
It's a 2.8 straight six auto (the auto is very necessary when messing while moving believe me :wack: ). It's not what you'd call a comfy car as it's bouncy as hell, has a chain steering wheel, and the exhaust blows, but I have daily driven it to work and back for a while and it's not that bad.
It was originally built by none other than Eddie Ratley, so it'd be cool to keep this in the drift family :D

It's a really solid car. No structural rust, a couple of bubbles on the leading edge of the bonnet, and one of the previous owners managed to jump it into something and give it some light scratches on the passenger front wing. The interior is lovely velour curtain material :D. It's part and parcel of the comedy genius that is this car.

Taxed and MOT'd for about 7 months if I remember correctly.. Insurance costs me around £400 a year.

This car is cheaper than a very cheap thing at £3000

PM me if you want to know more. I need it gone asap so first come first served with the most fun you've ever had in your life :D

Arghhh.... why does this come up for sale again when I have no money :cry:

An un-needed bump for a proper cool car!

And if you get a flat tyre I guess you don't even need a jack!! :rolleyes:
 
I had the pleasure of driving this from Dartford to Leicester a few months back, it's an awesome car, Phil speaks the truth about the joy this car brings to yourself and others, i had people waving, taking pics, smiling and a car full of blonde hotties waving and showing other stuff to me on the M1! Giggady Giggady!
 
Best car ever.

I'd buy it back if I had the space, I really would! This is a great car in 2 respects... it's a 70s datsun in amazing condition for its age, solid as fuck. And obviously its mad gangsta and probably the coolest lowrider base I could ever imagine.

I've looked at getting several lowriders since this Dat, but always end up thinking 'hmmm but it'll never be as badass as that 260c'

Whoever buys it will smile... alot.


Phil - Give Eddy a shout, I talked to him a bit about the car and he was interested in what's going on with it and possibly having it back some time. I've got his email address if you need?
 
Words cannot describe how I feel about not being able to afford this , lol , this would be the PERFECT promo vehicle for me and my photography/art at events and shows, absolutely sick :(
 
As Phil, Chunk, and Topi said, this car rocks. We went on a 10min journey and my face was hurting so much by the end of it with laughter, histerical laughter... Three wheelin' around roundabouts or down streets is the bestestest most rediculously cool thing ever.

Seriously cheap as well, the hydraulics alone would cost that, let alone the 3 speed auto boxed pimp wagon attached.
 
Same as what Mike said, we only went down the road to halfords and it was one of the best car rifes I've ever had, you will not be dissapointed if you buy this car
 
I want it

The missus said no - she wants a conservatory

I explained you cant pick up bitches with a conservatory

The missus is angry now

:(
