Administrators gav240z Posted June 1, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted June 1, 2021 Nice looking 905 red early 240z on BAT. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-240z-60-2/ I'm a sucker for 905 red with black steelies. My first 240z looked like this when I went to inspect it. So always brings back fond memories. theremm and rubberman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240ZBUILTBYME Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Interesting article. https://www.hagerty.com/media/market-trends/nissan-z-next-911/?fbclid=IwAR0ftogxsnqEmZ1WHhus58mc7TQvVoN2me0HSP1s13D6eFEtPjJborrSchw I’ve always loved the 280zx and 300zx despite the hate they get. I always keep my eye out and prices are definitely rising, 300zx in particular. They used to sit around the 20k mark not a year or two ago, and now decent condition ones are listing for 40k. Have I missed the boat.... Edited June 6, 2021 by 240ZBUILTBYME rubberman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilltech Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Looks nice, maybe it's my monitor but the green looks quite the Army olive green. You'd want to check it out for rust very thoroughly if it's spent most or all its life in the eastern states though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilltech Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) What, more than 100 grand for that pile? Why so much? Have to love the LH dogleg repair... if it could ever justify being called a repair... Suggest you forward to every punter coming on this site wanting to buy a Zed... and whinging about the cost...

Or maybe on top of the purchase price?? The period is 4 to 5 months, and there is no need to wait for up to half a year. It is a system that you pay according to the progress of the work in multiple times instead of lump-sum payment. Body color is free to choose, so please let us know after it makes a successful bid.

Exactly. They are selling a 'project' where the customer pays in stages for a restoration where they get to call some of the spec details to their choice. Like a kind of 'bespoke' build. gav240z and gilltech 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltech Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Righto. I thought there must surely be some kind of angle to it for all those $$$ or Yen, but was thinking along the lines of maybe it's a super-duper rare version of a S30 or maybe one once owned by a celebrity... OK. Personally if I was prepared to shell out that kind of coin I would be expecting them to start with a better base car than that one, it doesn't look confidence inspiring. Just as with a building project, if there is a cost and/or time blow-out then quality suffers. The intending owner would be well advised to monitor the repair build quality very closely.

Current Bid $9,268.52 USD 6 days remain. If you're ambitious enough to try and restore it.. Quote Hakosuka HT No documents It will be an exhibition of a parts picker. There is a lot of body corrosion. The big shortages are the front grille, light frame, visor, rearview mirror, and carburetor. There may be others. It has an L28 engine (N42), but I don't think it can be used. Iron bonnet, iron trunk, FRP front fender, R sports. There are F sports and tacoashi in the car. Please treat everything including vehicles and parts as junk. Please take a closer look at the image and bid carefully. With NC.NR strict adherence. Please arrange the land transportation by the highest bidder. sexual_sushi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTI-Z Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Maybe to cover bodgy rust repairs to the sills ? It's something that I would expect to see on a 60's US muscle car, not a 240Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilltech Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) See? The very best Zeds have sunroofs. And he's probably put sill trims on to prevent stone damage, rather than ugly mudflaps.

Sean Dezart (as ever, on the ball... ) is simply repeating somebody else's ballpark guess as though it is gospel. Price is 'POA' and I think it will be much more than that.

specialp3 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 What a beautiful car. Something that has always bugged me with sellers wanting high prices is why can they not spend the extra $150 and have the dash vents chromed? Maybe also replace the pedal rubbers. A lot of many has been spent on the resto and these small details make all the difference. Happy to be called a dick for my comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
