[AKKA]

Looking for a datsun 260z or 280z. (2 or 4 seater)

 

. Must be in good running condition

. preffer a straight body with decent paint job (interior doesnt worry me)

You will be lucky to find one in Tas AKKA.

 

Have a look at the Tassie forum on this site.

Check out this thread it is my new project car, but has info on transport back to tas, which I think is your best option.

260Z 2+2 This car is the only one I know of for sale in Tassie. The bloke has had it for sale multiple times over the last 6 month on ebay. He may sell it for cheaper than he has listed on ebay. Ring him and find out. Only semi bad thing is it has a Z31 VG30 engine and not a standard 2.6L L series motor. All depends on what you want.

260Z 2+2 Here is another from NSW, depending on your budget this may be a much better car, just drive it home on the boat.

260Z 2+2 Another example this one has an SR20det motor.

240Z Want something really nice? It is a touch on the expensive side.. but has been listed for a very long time.

I was talking to a guy recently who was looking to sell an unregistered but decent 280ZX.  Might be just what you're looking for.  I'll see if I can get some contact details for him and let you know.

[AKKA]

thanks thatld be great! cheers

[C.A.R.]

Which model are you after exactly?

280ZX is different to a 280Z...

[24OZ]

there was a 280zx 2 seater for sale in Tas a few weeks back for $7G with a turbo 2.8l

if that's of interest i could dig up the details

 

[Hunter]

yeah that 280ZX 2 seater could be a good one and reasonably rare.

[gav240z]

and turbo re!

Here is on that has been on the SA and OZDAT sites for a while that is in Tassie:

 

1975 Datsun 260Z 2+2

Completely std, except for exhaust (extractors into 2"), ignition (push button due to broken ign. barrel), and air con (removed)

Original engine and box.

5-speed manual

Excellent mechanical condition, engine has recently been tuned by dougin & parker (l'ton) with new filters, spark plugs, leads, rocker cover gasket, points, and re-set timing. Good comp on all cylinders.

Body is immaculate, totally straight with NO rust.

Interior is very good with re-trimmed dash and drivers seat. All vinal is perfect except a split seam in drivers seat.

Odo says 66,000km, but it's only 5 dig so that doesn't mean much...

Tas rego till 17/04/08

 

Issues: I've put her through a RACT Mech Insp. and a Pedders Suspension check and these are the issues...

 

Suspension: tie rod ends, radius bushes, rear shocks, and all bump stops are worn and rear tires are bald.

 

Mechanical: Some electrical issues (will be fixed before sale), rear demister and clock don't work, movement in rear drive shaft's uni joint. At the moment there's no carpet, i'll have this fitted at buyers request. The car was recently resprayed and while the paint is in excellent condition, it wasn't the best job in the world...

 

 

looking for offers over $7000, this is a very clean example.

 

*original front end has been re-fitted since photos.* i'm not online much so if you're interested my phone number is 0427848767

 

cheers, nick
