Found this one for sale recently in Japan at nostalgiccar.com.
It's been repainted and re-trimmed and is missing all its badges, and has bluebird side indicators.

Rob has decided to put the CSP311 Silvia he bought earlier in the year up for sale. He originally only wanted the S600 Honda, but the seller said it was both cars or neither.
Personally I think he's selling the wrong car, but I'm biased. Fingers crossed my lotto numbers come out on the weekend. Is owning 2 CSP311 Silvias being too greedy? It would make an excellent birthday present for me :)

I found a few photos of a Silvia being restored on phptobucket.com. Posted by a user called Sevenstock, they show some extensive metal work. Looks like they have made a fibreglass boot lid and bonnet too.
Pictures here
Edit: Just realised that it's the same car in the video montage I posted about a while ago.

CSP311-70311 has been discovered lurking in a garage in Tasmania. Last week Rob emailed me to let me know he had found it along with a Honda S600, and that he had purchased them both.
The Silvia had been bought by its previous owner as a front end damaged vehicle in 1984. It was drivable, so he drive it home to Hobart from the North of the state.
He had the very smokey & noisy engine rebuilt and had the red Silvia resprayed back to the original colour.
The interior is in excellent condition, but at some stage, high back seats were installed.
Rob is undecided whether to keep the Silvia, or sell it, but I think its growing on him :)
