1974 Datsun 260z 2+2

hi guys

up for sale is my Datsun 1974 Datsun 260z 2+2

I acquired this vehicle about 3 or so years ago and used it as a daily driver for 2 of them then I sat it in my grand mothers garage for a year in storage with the intentions of rebuilding it but due to personal reasons the car must be sold.

I am the second owner of the vehicle, I bought it off a very old lady named Gloria from in Wollongong. the car had been owned by her since 1974 and she had retained all log book information and service history.

the vehicle has travelled 158 000 kms and it still going strong. I wouldn't recommend touching the motor just service it and it will go for another 40 years.

when I asked if the ODO had been around, she got into a big story of how her and her husdand when he was alive watched it roll over from 99 999 to 100 000 on their way to melb in the late 80s

during my time I have done a little work on the vehicle just to help improve the drivability as it was my daily drive.

rebuilt the carbs and tuned them, electronic ignition and electronic fuel pump.

serviced it a lot as I am a mechanic and I have a workshop at my disposal it always had a new filter and fresh oil n plugs every 5000km or when I had no work on lol.

I also trcked down and fitted an original hitachi am fm radio (hard to get my hands on) from the us and fitted it with a NOS ganuine rear speaker (also hard to find)

the car sufferes from a little bit of vapour lock on hot days as the early 260z did

the paint is worn and the interior will require a re trim

I have the original number plates in storage if u want them  GYM 289

I belive it isn't that bad in the rust department to be honest I consider it to be the perfect starting point for a restoration

my asking price is $5500 but I am open for reasonable negotiation located in Wollongong nsw

this car does hold a lot of history and sentimental value to me to ask your questions and I will try my best to answer them for you

regards dimo
