Which is the best way to source a 2 seater 280zx

Ok, who's up for filling a 40 foot container with as many desert cars (no rust), double stacked should get six in?
US shopping trip anyone??

dont forget you are only allowed to import 1 car every 5 years thanks to our current leaders, it use to be 1 a year and they have to be compete cars no half cuts for private individual importers but i could be intrested,

6 cars in a 40'  i think they are bring them in 4 double stacked, but i am not sure

Sorry luvemfast, if you saw the yellow up close you would probably throw up, i spent days striping it out. I dry reached a couple of times,  once i got down to the yellow it is not that great, the photos don't show its true colour its like stomach bile yellow,  you know when you have thrown up for a day straight, and then there is nothing left but!!!.   
The only yellow that is possibly in the photo shopped picture below, but as the Black Pearl 280Z's were realised in the States in 78 i recon the very first 280ZX's would have been realised in japan in that colour as well so that's where I'm leaning. yes i know your's is black and it does look fantastic and very

Stomach bile yellow! Thats on par with Baby Poop Brown! ( kalahari Tan?) what was Nissans name for the delightful yellow?
Re importing, whole cars yes, but wrecks half cuts, parts cars incompletes, dont think any testrictions, otherwise the import wreckets wouldnt be doing it.
Yeah prob have to run it through as a ABN business name number etc

Thanks guys, I've seen a few more US cars for sale here in Sydney. Edward Lee had a brown 280z 2 seater for 15K last year. I was wondering how the purchaser got on.

  i think the baby poop was mustard yellow or gold poly  #920, Richard Galley's old Tarmac Rally car was Kalahari Tan and defiantly no S#$t on that car's colour   i still haven't found the name for that yellow there is no info on the very early colour schemes, unless some on the forum reading this link  might know? I might start up another topic

The importers would have to have an ABN and  an import licence as well, more paper work,

Import a 280ZX 2 seater........now there's a thought worth considering.

Might give some of these specailist companies that import cars a call just to get an idea what the costs might be.

Cheers.

I'm on the mailing list for www.prestigemotorsport.com.au

They seem to be getting 240z's in, so might be worth a call.

This thread has motivated me to start looking at what is out there in 2 seater 280ZX land!
 
Here's one that caught my interest:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290657094361&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

My preference would definitely be a series 2 over the series 1 280ZX. turbo or N/A doesn't really worry me.

Maybe we should start another thread with what we find out there on the intranet!

Cheers.

I'd recommend that you look for a hard top. Not a targa top
