If you know of someone else that can help eg. friends, mechanics that info would also be much appreciated. Cheers.

Hey guys, Just posting to see if any anyone in Adelaide would be interested in looking over a 77 260Z for sale in for me and giving their opinion. I'm in Melbourne and can't see the car myself, and am new to Zs and looking for my first one. I'm definitely keen on it from first impressions. It's in Therbaton, and the seller would prefer an inspection as early as tomorrow. :-\ If anyone is interested PM me. I will of course compensate for your efforts. Cheers. Emil.

Thanks so much for the detailed advice Boyblunda and Gav...and Gav I would keep the colours that way...I really like them too. I'm very keen to have a member look at it for me and more than willing to give them $$ for beer, petrol, time etc. There are only two days left on the listing? How do I go about getting a member to help??? I'm going to call the seller today. Cheers.

hey thanks so much for the advice guys. The car isn't the one on the ebay listing, it was in Brisvages...but....what do we think of that one (on ebay)? It does have low Kms, and the interior looks pretty good doesn't it? I do like the colour, nothing mentioned about rust. If I can keep the price down, I may have a couple of K to fix things here and there. I'm just a complete novice. Any thoughts? (It's still interstate) Cheers. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DATSUN-260Z-SPORTS-COUPE-2X2-/250732765462?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item3a60d66116#ht_1192wt_1141

Hey all, I'm completely new to Zs and dont have one YET. I've recently become quite obsessed with them. A friend of a friend is selling his 77 260Z 2X2 with low kms... I hardly know the guy so I can't be sure he's going to be 100% honest (like most people selling a second hand car). It's all original, the body is in great condition, as is the interior... but it's interstate, so I can't just pop around and test drive it. He claims its in very good mechanical condition... and only the outer door rubbers need replacing. I'm a uni student and certainly don't have an abundance of $$... The thing is, i have my heart set on it, but have been getting mixed advice from people whose opinion I trust with cars. Do they cost a lot to upkeep? Are parts hard to come by? Are they easily fixed? Cheers.
