WANTED: 240Z/260Z 2-seater Project Car!

[Datsun240Z]

After selling my first 240Z and swapping my second 240Z, I am looking to purchase another one of these fine automobiles.

Going by my previous purchases, my budget is as follows;

 

One without engine, no missing parts and rust/rough - $2,000 - $3,000

One with engine, no missing parts and rust/rough - $4,000 - $7,000

 

Located in Melbourne/Victoria would be good, but otherwise I will happily pay for the 240Zs transport.

 

TEXT Todd: 0433 713 091

or PM me here.

 

Thanks!

Hi Todd

 

Cars do come up in that budget, but unfortunately are nearly always missing parts and guaranteed to have rust, the big question is how much rust.

 

Good luck with the search.

 

Cheers

I am fine with a few missing parts; say, floor carpet or roof lining, ect.

Missing boot hatch or doors, I am not so fine with.

 

Rust, I am completely fine with. The car can be an absolute wreck with rust. But just as long as most of the parts are there

 

My last 240Z was a steal at the price i got it for. Shame that they're very limited and not common on ebay, ect.

 

Thanks

Will also accept 2-seater 280Z or 280ZX !

Have you seen this 1?

Looks complete minus motor but rusty. I'm surprised it is still around but perhaps owner is asking too much?

[Datsun240Z]

I've already asked about it and it has been sold for a while now.

Got my hopes up far too much! It's pretty much perfect for what I need!

[gav240z]

Ok well this 1 meets your requirement of rusty lol...

It's missing seats but they are not hard to replace and it still has the rare hand throttle knob, 240z gear knob (very hard to find the 5 speed button) from the looks of it and the rest of interior dash / console is there. Door cards make me want to commit seppuku.

 

It also features the following:

 

1. Lovely RHD dash cap piece.

2. Hot wire wheels.

3. 260z flat top carbs.

 

All the bits and pieces that are hard to find. .

 

If you're willing to get your hands dirty this could be a good buy. Just depends on what bidding goes up to. I suspect everyone is watching it like a hawk.

[Datsun240Z]

I've also seen that one and have been sussing out the prices to deliver it to Melbourne. Would be very good in all honesty!

I'd imagine the bidding would go up to around 4 thousand dollars, of which I would pull out at around $3,000

 

If it were in Melbourne, i'd have already booked to view it and maybe bought it! haha

[gav240z]

Fair enough, yeah inspecting would help. I took a gamble when I bought mine from eBay in SA and had it shipped to NSW. Had no idea how bad it was going to be. I got lucky.

 

This car does look straight at the front and the rear, but photos can hide many problems.

[Datsun240Z]

I'm just hoping that something pops up in Melbourne soon!

Will save me a lot of hassle

[benny]

would this suit?
