There are definitely certain people on this forum that would restore that car, seller's intention or not!

Restore? Restore what? Even if the identity still remained, there are no mechanicals, no interior, no loose panels, everything usable that can be unbolted has been taken away and the shell is a cobweb by the time the rust is removed from those thin steel panels; by the time the thing is 'restored' with heaps of fresh steel and all the hundreds of necessary parts found and installed so very little of the original car will remain, maybe less than 10%. I don't call that a restoration, I call that building a car up from a hodgepodge collection of parts collected from all over the place.  ::)

Ha! I'm a practical realist not a dreamer! Knew I'd get a bite or three.

 

Oh I'm a Zed enthusiast all right, having owned mine for coming up 34 yrs... but I can't boast, there are one or two others on here who can better that.

 

I just believe that if a car is to be 'restored' then the majority of it - well surely at least 67%!!! - should still be there at the finish or it's no longer the same car is it.

 

Having fully restored from bare metal a rusty Mustang ragtop in the past I am only too aware what is involved, the cost, effort and downsides, and that was working with decent gauge American steel not light gauge Nissan steel.

 

To each his own.  :)

Mazda RX-2 Coupe

https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/Mazda-Capella-RX-2-1973/SSE-AD-5274904/

 

$35,000

 

vbbrxi2kapzmupzafrar9.jpg?pxc_method=fit

j508b8de31x77mqx5mzrq.jpg?pxc_method=fit

 

I suspect if it was RHD the price would be at least $15k higher!

 

1972 Mazda RX2 COUPE - LHD - Original car which is 90% complete.

 

This RX2 gets up and goes really well, it has a rebuilt 12a with a Racing Beat Holley on it. Very impressive how it drives for a little 12a!

 

Overall the car is in good condition for its age, everything is there, it has NO RUST in the chassis, its a very good base car to start with but it needs to be repainted and have the interior re-trimmed.

 

Any inspection is welcome and can assist with interstate transport if required.

 

**Please no time wasters or stupid offers**

Hey Gav, while you are at it with left hook chook cookers there is a group B RX 7 on BaT for a bit-coin.

Yes it would be a walk up starter at Goodwood and a symphony to the ears. The presidential suite had me in awe as well. Viva El Presidente!

1971 datsun 240z Primadonna Z ! #2 of 3 !

 

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1971-Datsun-Z-Series/142693320579?itemId=142693320579&du=1

 

Extremely rare piece of Datsun history! This car is number 2 of 3 created. Handcrafted and thoroughly engineered this is basically a imsa race car for the street. Please Google primadonna 240Z and familiarize yourself with this vehicle and its history. 355 cubic inch Chevrolet small-block with Scarab adapter and 4 speed race suspension and brake system with proportioning valve. This car has been a dream of mine ever since I found out of it close to 20 years ago.. I've spent over $5,000 within the past year in order to sort the car. Unfortunately the previous owner who was here in New York neglected the car slightly.. needs some paint on the rear wing and new inserts to be fabricated. Also the driver side door needs some slight paint work. Please serious inquiries only and I will be happy to provide serious buyers with further details and photos

This one didn't sell.

 

There was a two tone blue/silver 2 seater 280ZX on trademe.com about 2 years ago for NZ$18000. 

It was a series 2 and had a bit of work done to the engine.

Really nice car.

Always wonder if it will pop up on trademe again.

Just testing the waters. I have a 1971 datsun 240z that I had bought to take the radiator outta it to fix my other 240z. Wanna trade for another project car this 240z has no carpet and no wiring it's a project as simple as that but it's a nice car. Would like a Supra or skyline but that's just a dream (but it'd be awesome). I have the title but unfortunately it's not signed because the man who's name is in the title has passed away. Just give me a text and tell me what u got and wanna trade.
