Wanted - 240Z

[Bolts]

Hi everyone,

 

 

Like many others, I'm here putting the out the feelers, in the hope there may be a car out there.

 

I'm chasing a 240z with a budget of 30K, with room to wiggle for the right car. 

 

Over the years I've been saving up and narrowing down my view on what I'm chasing. It has led to this moment, where I'm ready to lay down some coin and start this new adventure.

 

Matching numbers would be amazing but do I realise that it is a tall order, considering my budget and the fact that I’m after a registered (or close to) example. As original as possible is the goal.

 

The ultimate long term plan will be to bring the car back to its former glory, with a full nut and bolt restoration.

 

And yes, I will continue keeping an eye out this forums 3rd party thread, along with other forums and the usual gumtree,carsales and ebay.

 

I am also willing to travel.

 

Thanks for reading and if you or someone you may know is thinking of selling, please send me a message.

 

 

Cheers

You know what you want and have a realistic budget. I'm sure the right car will come along, you just need patience. Check all possible sites you listed daily and be ready to act and to travel.

 

Good luck!

Thanks George! I'm sure one will come along. Like you said, just need patience.

Hi

 

As George said that is a realistic budget.

With a little patience something will come along, possibly sonner than you think ;-)

 

Cheers

What you're doing worked for me and I'm extatic with what I now have in my garage.

Mate I would be too! You picked up a great looking gem

Welcome. If you plan to do a full restoration you may also want to consider project cars as a nice looking registered car may be full of filler. It may save you money in the long run. Good luck with the search.

There is a decent looking orange 240z which recently came up for sale... Right on budget aswell.

I agree but as the aim is to drive and then store, a project car doesn't fit the bill.

The orange one on gumtree? It's been snatched up.
