Hey all!! Haven't post in ages... Summer keeps me away from the computer.

Anyways, last night walking the dog, just passing the 7-11 near Market Mall. See the big old boat...
Wasn't sure what it was til I saw the signature Skyline taillights.
Has to be seen in person. Its ugly, a good ugly. But still a Skyline.

Talked to the owner a bit. He works at JNS Imports and imported this R31 for himself. '86 model, turbo. Only about 96,000kms on it. And its been around for a year now. So I'm surprised no one else has seen it.

Sorry, no camera. But I believe it was this one:

If it's turbo he added that - the RB30 wasn't turbo'd in the Silouhette Skylines (r31) - they also come in 4 door >_<

Uh? RB30? This one has a turbo RB20, that's the H in HR31.
