260z 2 seater and 260 2+2 parts car down Mornington way.

http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/moorooduc/cars-vans-utes/datsun-260z-2-seater-shell-with-roll-cage/1015221625

 

I sent my father out to go and look at this one today.

 

2 seater is in primer and the primer has attracted the moisture, so has surface rust. Apparently the hatch is in good nick. No motor, no gearbox. Dig in the rear quarter.

 

2+2 is very bad, has motor and auto tranny.

 

Boxes of bits and an unassembled, kinda rusty roll cage (which apparently cost $4k).

 

I won't be buying, but if there's good bits... can I have first dibs?

What do you fellas reckon for the price? Anything to look out for. Still getting my head around what to spot for besides the usual rust areas

cheers

[Zedman240®]

At that price, I'd be expecting lots of pics of any bodywork and rust removal. Mainly just look for any rust! Un original engine so it depends on you how original you wanted it to be. I'm sure the price is negotiable to a point.

looks like the 50RTA car but with different wheels

Hellooooooo bump steer!

 

[dat2kman]

no plates on car, but in ad it says rego plates in "Runnin L8"

Ie his personalised plates are late in arriving!

 

Also a pic of the Qld Tpt Blue ( modification) plate attached would be helpfull, if it has been engineered and approved?

For rims, suspension brakes seats, and possibly for cut rear original steel guards.it has appeared

It used to be plated as "50RTA".?? not too sure?? Something a bit different with carbs and exhaust tip.

[MATTY]

if that is/was 50RTA then she as some lovely rust in the front left hand side rail. i looked at it a few years ago when it was for sale last some fella called alex was trying to sell it. but it had too much cancer for me at that stage to handle and also had a red bull can for the radiator overflow haha.

[Yo-Yo]

I love this site. Thanks for the responses

I'm not going to be buying a 240/260z anytime soon unless I sell my skyline first. But just reading through the posts on here helps me learn what to look out for.

Looking by the engine & similar suspension setup indeed seems to be 50rta

[cracker]

Yep

hi guys,

 

I've been looking to get back into a zed for a while - I'm looking at this one and spoke to the owner earlier today.

 

There's a bit of work to be done and despite its current looks, it fits my budget.

 

Is there anybody quite close to Mowbray and willing to give it a good look over for me? preferably with a good knowledge of zeds!

 

More than happy to wire you some cash for some beers for your trouble, as it would be much appreciated!

 

feel free to pm here or call/text on (zero four zero three) 527398

 

cheers, James

Mint looking 240z, very original car.

This has been on Carsales for a while.

Looks pretty tidy. Does anyone on here know its history ?

For an unmolested "exceptional" car it certainly has alot of things changed and or missing.. 280ZX EFI, missing trim and 240K wheel, different stereo and looks like someone has been playing with the steering column shroud. Interior looks pretty filthy. Also the heater core has been by-passed ie leaky heater core. Hate to see what's under the dash mat!

Yeah, just didn't look right in the photo's, and all of the above is before looking closely at the shiney bodywork.

Thanks

I believe it was the one for sale in Wagga late last year when the owner was asking $6000- "the mature man". I had a look and the stories did not make sense, he had been tinkering with it for years, seats were ratty and all worn/torn. There had been respraying and all sorts of excuses why engine could not be started. I had a look on my way through Wagga early December, maybe a $3000- to $4000- car. Is straight though and a good project. Strange he is reselling so fast.

What's up with the pedal arrangement on that one above? The clutch looks like it overlaps the brake and the brake seems oddly far away from the accelerator or is it just the angle of the photo making it look like that?

Good eye! Looks like it was an auto as well with a manual conversion..seems they forgot to change the brake pedal to a manual one as well....

 

The list is growing..

Shameless plug, but I've got a much neater bus advertised in the for sale section

Thats currently on ebay. I hear its full of bog and rust.

[Agno]

Can't vouch for the car, but it always makes me uneasy to see a shiny exterior with a filthy (and completely different colour) interior like that

So I guess it's priced at $8000 too much?

 

But there is an alarming large number of bids on this car.

To think you couldn't give these away years ago, this could fetch more than a 240z in similar condition.

 

This 1 looks far more honest.

Agree, Consistency of condition Interior / Exterior / Mechanical / Story should be evident.
