I agree with most of the above that is written. I can appreciate modded and standard cars too.

 

End of the day he would like the car to go to someone that intends to keep it the way it is and not likely to return it to standard.

 

Its true that the new owner is able to do as they wished to the car thereafter once cash is exchanged.

 

But its like selling a house. If you got two same offers (price, conditions etc) and the two group of buyers are 1) first home buyers, young couple - 2) investors. Some may choose one group over the other.

 

I guess live and let live....!!??

Not at the way Zeds are going atm. IMHO that's a reasonable asking price.

Stew, I told you your 240 was worth 30k+, didn't I? ;)

Agreed.  That is woeful... Though I like the fact that it has independent rear suspension and a hydraulic clutch, not to mention ball bearings in the gearbox - not often you see those items on a Zed.

Well, I didn't actually want to show people this, because I think it is too nice a car to let other people see.

However since I need a garage before I start buying more Zs, I guess I will have to let someone else buy it.

Its back on evil bay again, I am sure I this was on 3-4 months ago.

 

240z Series 1 No 212

THERE IS NO RESERVE THE CAR HAS GOT TO GO.

 

Up for auction is  my much loved series one 240z, chassis No.00212 yes thats right build number 212. Australian compliance date is12/1970  so I would assume this vehicle was built either late 1969 or early 1970. It is now painted in a Honda metallic green with the original cream vinyl roof, it started out in life as the pale green datsun colour with the vinyl roof. This a matching series one No's vehicle with the E31 head, choke and throttle control on centre console,speedo starts at 20mph and vents on the rear hatch.

 

What has been done:

 

Engine fully rebuilt with receipts

All new suspension, king springs, kyb shocks, all new bushes, and fully adjustable control arms at the rear, and front torsion bars for that perfect wheel alignment.

New clutch

New brake master cylinder and booster

New rear brake cylinders, replaced rear brake shoes

Front calipers over hauled, replaced front pads

Steering rack overhauled

Lukey sports exhaust and extractors

Car was repainted just over two  years ago, paint is in good condition with only a few minor chips and blemishes, but has  a couple of rust bubbles on either door and to  rear of passenger wheel well, NO OTHER RUST AT ALL

New windscreen, but it got scratched by original chrome wipers so now replaced with plastic ones,  so screen does have a couple of scratches

All new seals to doors and windows

Radiator overhauled,heater core overhauled

All new heater and cooling hoses

Carpet replaced and in excellent condition

Seats are original no cracks but some minor damage to rear of them and to one side of drivers seat, but covered in sheep skin car seat covers to reduce wear and tear

Dash has cracks but is covered with a dash mat

All gauges serviced and working perfectly even the clock and tacho

Tyres BF Goodrich about 40% worn

Stereo, cd/mp3 player with ipod connectivity, 6 cd stacker, amplifier and 6 x 9 speakers

SAAS steering wheel and gear change knob

Front and rear bumper bars have been rechromed and are in excellent condition

New voltage regulator

All of the above work has been carried out within the past two years.

 

What needs to be done, needs a tune up has been sitting for the past three months and the rust bubbles, then enjoy driving it.

 

Fully road registered in NSW expiry 5/2010

 

This car could be driven anywhere its very reliable, and a joy to drive.

 

There is no warranty on this vehicle and none implied.

this car was originaly for sale on ebay few years ago before i bought my 240z when i was hunting one down.. it was listed and i was interested in getting it but the seller pulled it off and said he relist it again at later stage.

 

that never happend till few month ago the same car but somewhat cleaned up. ie new paint and cleaned out interior.

 

looks good. i dont mind that green. not a fan of vinyl roofs but doesnt look too bad.

 

good luck to him.

How much rust is under a vinyl roof?

Think it looks pretty good too, but would definitely have to get rid of the white. hopefully someone gets a bargain.

To the queue of people wanting a 240Z? Start saving some $$$ and start bidding! If I wasn't paying off a house, I'd bid for it!

Depends on the owner really. When we removed the vinyl roof from my car there was very little rust, but the PO was a fanatic about keeping the car undercover and dry.
