MWestern Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 (edited) The new listing has some more photos, seems like a lot is missing. The title has been renamed to 'Track car' now. Also looks like a lot of metal work has been done in the engine bay. Edited February 28, 2020 by MWestern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camshere Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Looked at buying some parts off the owner of 24 Zed, while i was there he pulled the cover off that red beauty and walked me through it - absolutely beautiful car and restoration was done to an extremely high level of detail and looks to be quality work. Owner is fastidious and this is reflected in the car. It's not 100% original, but its the closest I've ever seen and wouldn't take much to create a museum piece if that's what you were after, or drive it as is and you have an amazing S1 early girl. gilltech 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does present beautifully, but with some glaring incorrect features, badge placement etc you have to wonder what else it hides. It's ebay auction reached ~$65k (not sold obviously) which I think is not far off where it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curtis 240z Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Nothing hidden underneath the paint, it does have rust issues and I can’t stress this enough will need a restoration. Does have some good history being bought new by Dr Harry, previous owner of #4 and did have a good life until it was left outside for 5years.
