I got incredibly lucky today after a pretty cool story.
A random new forum user pmd me on Monday evening and asked me if I was still interested in a patrol engine after having seen randomly a message I left on another thread about one that was available on the east coast and lamenting that I am always on the wrong coast when good parts come up.... That was posted about six or seven months ago ..
He's a collector of Nissan 240Z and skyline race cars and bought a property that had a previous owner who was a patrol enthusiast. The old owner left a running motor, transmission, and driveshafts along with a few other parts and he was looking to get rid of to make shop space and asked me if I was interested. I typically live about 6-7 hours or so away from him but happened to be in the Seattle area staying 30 miles from his house. What are the odds?!
The guy was looking to just simply get rid of the stuff since the market is pretty small for patrol guys. I picked it up for ultra cheap and am stoked to get back to Eastern Washington and rebuild or refurbish my first patrol spare motor
Probably a project that i'll tackle in the next year if i'm lucky.
