240Z/260Z

[Rickers]

Hey guys, I think it's about time I stick a wanted ad up and finally get on to starting my plan (creating memories and bonding with my father, if this doesn't make sense, have a look at my introduction post). Anyway, let's chuck some details out here.

 

-Wanting a 240z/260z (not a 2+2).

-Project or unrestored.

-A 'complete' car, within reason of course. (Just to clarify, I simply mean everything is there, even if broken or damaged).

-Rust is a given (comes free right?)

-I'd prefer a 240z over a 260z but I understand, with my budget, that might not be a possibility.

-Budget is $10k

-I'm willing to travel anywhere, although something in Victoria would be great.

 

This is a car that my Dad and I are going to restore, it's going to be a piece of him that I can keep with me when the day comes and he isn't around anymore. It's not going to be just a car like so many people think, it's going to be a story, and a capsule of memories. It's going to be something that is priceless to my father and I. We are itching to start this and cannot wait to start making memories.

 

Also, the girlfriend is happy for me to do this, so we have to hurry before she changes her mind.

 

Cheers,

Rick

At your 10k budget , start with a 260 2+2

Hey, why's that? I'd rather put up a bit more money for a 2 seater. What would be a good price range? I'm not looking for anything special, I'm looking for something like the $10k 240z that recently came up in QLD or the $12.5k 260z that came up on the forums.

 

Edit: To be more clear, the $10k is simply for the car and not the work that we will be putting into it or the parts we may need.

Your asking price is not unreasonable,

Your asking price is not unreasonable, I have a 71 complete matching number car, a early # race car shell and a complete 2+2 as a package deal I would let go for that sort of money, but in the Gold Coast

 

Rick you better act fast...............................

They are about but they don't last long and most need a fair bit of work...

Hey Patch, you've definitely got my attention. I'm currently at work so I can't really check much stuff out. Would you be able to grab some photos of the 71 and 2+2 as well? I really appreciate the offer and I'm really interested.

[Patch]

No worry's I will withdraw my offer until I get them nice photo's for you.

[Rickers]

Thanks Patch. I've been on the phone to my Dad and girlfriend, they're both super excited (one more so than the other). Once again, im super interested and can't wait to see the photos.

 

Cheers,

Rick

 

Edit: I've sent you a PM Patch.
