Further proof the eBay advert was a scam, that car is currently in Hong Kong after being sold at a Pickles Auction in 2014 and then placed on eBay in 2016.

As you can see now it's in HK it has a rear wing, (bloody eBay fender mirrors) etc.. and looks a little in need of a good detail again.

I can't recall what it sold for on eBay.

One owner Datsun 260Z (1976 2+2 manual)
(two owners really, if you read the description)
$21,500 Negotiable
Hurstville NSW

https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/hurstville/cars-vans-utes/one-owner-datsun-260z/1179859357

 

"Up for sale is a Datsun 260Z 2+2 in original and unrestored condition. As such, the car is a little tired but a true survivor.

I am the second owner and I am reluctantly selling and know it’ll be a decision I’ll most likely end up regretting.

As you can see in the photos, it does have thorough documentation and originality from its first owner.

 

It had been sitting for a few years in the old lady's garage, as such, I have spent a fair amount of money getting it

road worthy again: brand new tyres, carbs cleaned and tuned, oil and all filters changed, dizzy cleaned, new spark plugs,

brake pads, brake bleed and new battery.

 

I have ordered the number plates [260 – ZED] which will also be sold with the car.

This is a genuine Z and one that hasn’t been raced or modded and is priced accordingly."

1977 Datsun 260z sport classic in Custom Green

 

I love Z all my life and it is time for others to appreciate and continue the legacy

 

Restored 4 years ago, Maintained and tuned by zshop

The car is in great condition, no work need to be done. Just drive and enjoy.

I am only drive it less than 10 times a year which is not ideal. This car must be appreciated by driving and showing how good it is. It turned heads everywhere I went. Total classic with some enhancement to complement the bodywork.

 

This car is rising in value. Great investment that giving you sense of pride, individuality and rare.

 

5 speed manual - the proper way to enjoy this car

L26 with SU carb from 240z

New Exedy Clutch done by Zshop

Custom exhaust - giving a nice sound

Adjustable suspension done by zshop

Bride seat Carbon Fibre with Custom Rail to fit in for Driver and passenger

17” Rota wheel - Watanabe style deep dish

Custom Carbon fibre Bonnet

Custom Carbon front bumper

Custom Duck tail spoiler

Custom Front spoiler

Carbon Fibre flare guard

Side Fender Mirror

Mono Leather Steering wheel with snap on - you can take steering wheel with you like f1

Deleted rear bumper - make it a unique/individual

 

Photo can tell a thousand word but Inspection will do the justice to appreciate the car.

 

Serious buyer only please.

 

Please contact me for inspection.

If I do not answer, please send me a text as I may be in a meeting.

I laughed and thought the same thing. Look if he cons people to pay him $1000 deposit he could make a fair few grand a month cash. My uncle copped it for a Harley, the guy had it up cheap and he said he was going interstate and asked for a deposit direct to his account. 6 months later and my uncle couldn't get a cent back. Luckily it was only $500

I phoned eBay and reporting this scammer again yesterday. The problem is that he/she keeps taking over other eBay user accounts. Today's examples are;

- corinnbrad_0
- michaela.ivonne2021
- montastesteph
 
The email has changed to martin33@hotmail.com
The items (about 130) are the same and the prices don't change.

1970 240z #211
$24,000

 

Byron Bay, NSW.

 

https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/byron-bay/cars-vans-utes/1970-240z-211/1180637293

 

Selling on behalf of a friend is this rare early series 1 matching numbers 240z. This 240z originally left the factory in green and still retains its matching numbers engine, early style hatch, early steering wheel and most of the other early bits which make it differ from most 240z's. The car is 95% complete, the engine runs and this car is an ideal candidate for a restoration for a show car or nice drive car. over all there is minimal rust for a 240z, there has been some average repairs done in the past but overall the car is pretty solid and doesnt appear to have been involved in any major accidents. Genuine enquires are welcome and these cars are becoming harder to find.

I visited Aaron and checked out the car - it's a very solid base for a project. The bonnet, hatch and I think one of the doors still needs some rust repair, but the sections in lighter coloured primer have been repaired by a local and respected shop. Many of the parts have the expected wear and tear so it's not a resto for the faint hearted, but good value at $16k IMO. Matching numbers too (the engine is stored elsewhere so I can't vouch for this!)

I think that's the old Edward Lee's 240z, that went to Gosford car Museum and now for sale again. Nice car, glad Mr Grubby Lee's no longer has it. ????

Yeah looking from my desktop definitely the same car, same mirrors, rear louvre, booklets, radio position etc.. Half the Pickles photos are in the Gosford Car Museum also.

 

As for adding it to the collection, tempting just so I can re-enact an Edward Lees video with it. :D
