Kodie Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 SHIT, man i did send an email! Was willing to jump on a boat last night to come get it Quote
FLEXZED Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 i was on my way down there from sydney with cash in my pocket to buy the car and the trailer when i got a call to say someone bought it IS it sold or what ?? Loui Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted December 6, 2009 Moderators Posted December 6, 2009 Ash, Which SIMS Metal did you take it to? I went to all of them in the area with no luck.... Quote
luvemfast Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Ok Whats the story with this car? it was at the BBQ on Saturday and nothing was mentioned about it being for sale. How about some phone numbers to be posted? or Is this just some kind of joke Lurch? $200 for that shell is obscenely cheap! Quote
C.A.R. Posted December 6, 2009 Author Posted December 6, 2009 Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.................... Thanks everyone - you made my day! I cant believe people actually thought it could be bought for $250! If it sounds too good to be true... Its actually my Zed & the pic was taken at the bbq. Ash said he was going take a pic of it & post it on the forum for $250, but I beat him to it. Least I know who the gulable people are on this forum now...! Quote
luvemfast Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Least I know who the gulable people are on this forum now...! I already have both your number and Ash's number. And I didn't call either one of you. So I past the test And I called the joke, tall peeps must have twisted humour hey buddy? Quote
Sirpent Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Lurch At least you could pay some credits to the Shakesperean support team in this production. Quote
C.A.R. Posted December 7, 2009 Author Posted December 7, 2009 Hahaha yes indeed. Most of the Vic guys twiged what going on. Your an evil man for threatening to cut it up John! Quote
bluerat Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Bugger the Zed, I'm more worried about that trailer!! is that a star picket welded to the front? Is it yours Lurch? Quote
Sirpent Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Hahaha yes indeed. Most of the Vic guys twiged what going on. Your an evil man for threatening to cut it up John! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Yessssssssssssssss Number 1, thats why I use the Dr Eeeeeeeeeeeeval Avatar ! Quote

Mr240z Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 spewing i really needed that roof :-[ Loui's been searching for a roof for ages, He nearly gets his hands on one and it's a joke. Pretty sick joke if you ask me. Hope you guys had a good laugh. Quote
Sirpent Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Then loui's done himself in ......LMAO He was in on it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Kodie Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Meh, I thought it was the steal of the century. Would have been nice to bolt one back together already done to use as my daily Quote
waxhead Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Yeah I am one of the gullible people I was ready to drive down to pick it up Quote
George Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I'll step in and say what some of the guys must be thinking but are too shy to say. Always up for a good laugh but this is in poor taste Lurch and co. I'm a bit disgusted to be honest. Playing with peoples hopes is sick. If I was one of the guys that got excited by the prospect of finally finding what I needed only to be laughed at I would be dirty with the lot of you. Hell I don't care about your rust bucket and I'm still dirty with the lot of you. I'm ashamed to see this Lurch and I hope you lot apologise. Quote
garvice Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I thought you were just missing a 0 off the end. Even then I thought it would have been cheap. Quote
C.A.R. Posted December 7, 2009 Author Posted December 7, 2009 Sorry George, but I think your being overly sensitive. I fail to see what is so 'bad taste' about it? If people 'hope' to get a S30 chassis Zed (in any condition) for a measly $250, then they are kidding themselves. The days of buying a Zed for that sort of $ are long gone... In hindsight I should have also added to the ad: Come with Factory multi-piece G-nose, 'Fairlady' badges & a set of 16" Wats. I doubt even then that some people would have smelt something suspicious... I'll step in and say what some of the guys must be thinking but are too shy to say. Always up for a good laugh but this is in poor taste Lurch and co. I'm a bit disgusted to be honest. Playing with peoples hopes is sick.

Sirpent Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 George, You make a good point, and I personally apologise for my part in it.............with absolute honesty........... However, just to clear a couple of things up. #1 We, or should I say I as I cant speak for the others thought that 99% of the forum knew it had to be a joke. #2 Sunday morning, I actually thought it was true also But, and these are the big buts.......... Who in their right mind would either (A) Sell a complete car in pieces with all the rust work done and matching numbers.......... (B) Expect to pick one up for $250.00 ? © In my case rip a perfectly good early RS30 apart for parts. I think that at times we all forget that we are all here to try to help each other, and in defense of Lurch, show me another member who actually goes out of his way to assist people. Im not blowing wind up his preverbial, but come on, seriously, we all have to appreciate that sometimes a joke may go to far without pre-meditated intentions. Any how, apologies on my behalf for any heartache I may have contributed to, and this shouldnt be read as a precursor for expecting Lurch to do the same. Cheers John Quote
Sirpent Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Damn you posted just before me............. Quote
NZeder Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Ok for those looking to cut up a zed for parts - how about you guys go in on this little unit http://cgi.ebay.com.au/datsun-240z-build-1036-rolling-shell_W0QQitemZ130349267985QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Car_Parts_Accessories?hash=item1e596bfc11 Quote
Sirpent Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 NZ Read previous threads in Ebay cars regarding this one. http://www.viczcar.com/forum/index.php/topic,2630.510.html Cheers John Quote
NZeder Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Thanks for the link John, one day to go - looking forward to your finding on this one and the others he has Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted December 8, 2009 Administrators Posted December 8, 2009 All I will say is that perhaps this thread should have waited for April 1st. I was going to post my own 240z for sale on April 1st just to cause a stir and see what interest there would have been but at the last minute decided not to. I guess we should be mindful of those who troll the forum looking for that bargain. Trust me there are plenty of them out there looking. Quote
Sirpent Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 Interesting point Gav, about the Trolling............. I notice that there are usually more guests than members on line at any one time, and its interesting to see what they are viewing when you click on the status of all on line. Quote
