Are the gauges in working order?

What did he say

Do you have any of (& a price in mind for): - centre console - aircon unit - radio face - dash

Got one off gumtree

Thanks - much appreciated

Looks good it fits the 2+2?

Thanks - yeah I have heard they are hard But I love the look

Finally have my first z and I am now looking to get in on the road and get that 70's look. Want a Rear Louver for a 260z 2+2 in good condition.

This was bought from Port Augusta for ~$9k not that long ago and I don't think he has done any work. The previous seller said he got the car as part of a lot a few years ago and had been in storage mostly since then. I was keen at $9k but less now - good luck

Anyone here near Geelong and can check this car out for me? https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-260Z-1975/SSE-AD-4375908

This was sold recently in Port Lincoln for $9k if I remember correctly, I was interested at that level but this guy snapped it up. The dash is stuffed.

Looks terrible, I don't think anyone here would bother bidding.

Looks like a reasonable buy for 4500, has anyone had a look at it yet?

Where are you located?

Ok decision time should I get the 260 that needs a bit more work or this 280zx which is a bit cheaper? https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Datsun-280ZX-1982/SSE-AD-4105097

Thanks I love the look of it bar the sunroof, but if that is the only downside I am all over it. I will see how I go in the Melbourne Cup maybe I can afford it anyway

Really interested in this car - is there a local who could have a look over it? 1977 Datsun 260Z Coupe on Gumtree http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/1128409690

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/302073089357 FOR REGRETTABLE SALE, AS I PRESENTLY HAVE TOO MANY OTHER PROJECTS, IS THIS SOUGHT AFTER AND NOW RARE, CLASSIC 1974 DATSUN 260Z 2+2 SPORTS COUPE WITH AUTO TRANSMISSION, FULLY RUNNING AND IN REGULAR USE. FULL VICTORIAN REGISTRATION UNTIL 18TH OCTOBER 2016 BUT WILL BE SOLD WITH PLATES REMOVED AS IT WILL ALSO BE SOLD WITHOUT RWC. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN THIS OWNERSHIP FOR 11 YEARS AND HAS PROVEN A SOLIDLY RELIABLE, QUICK AND FUN CONVEYANCE, MOSTLY DRIVEN BY A LADY. NOW 42 YEARS OLD IT NATURALLY HAS RUST IN ALL THE USUAL PLACES FOR THIS MODEL BUT MECHANICALLY IT APPEARS VERY SOUND AND STILL GOES REMARKABLY WELL. THE CYLINDER HEAD HAD SIGNIFICANT WORK SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND THE CAR HASN'T COVERED A GREAT MILEAGE SINCE. OIL PRESSURE IS HIGH AT ALL TIMES. A LITTLE ROUGH IDLING WHEN COLD, WHICH I SUSPECT IS CARBURRETTOR TUNE, WHEN WARM THE PERFORMANCE IS SURPRISINGLY PLEASING. DOUBTLESS THE CAR WOULD BENEFIT FROM A GENERAL ENGINE TUNE. THERE IS A CLUNK ON OCCASIONS FROM THE REAR WHICH IS DOUBTLESS ONE OR MORE OF THE UJs ON THE AXLE SHAFTS, A COMMON FAULT ON THESE CARS AND NOT DIFFICULT TO REPAIR. THE TRANSMISSION I CANNOT FAULT. THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR THE ALMOST INDESTRUCTABILITY OF THEIR AUTO BOXES. THIS CAR PRESENTS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR A COMPETENT AND CONFIDENT PERSON TO RESTORE ONE OF THESE FAMOUS CLASSICS AND IS BEING SOLD AS YOU SEE IT. KINDLY SATISFY YOURSELF FROM THE DESCRIPTION AND PICTURES, MORE OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE TO VIEW UPON REQUEST, AS TO THE SUITABILITY FOR YOUR PURPOSE THAT THIS VEHICLE REPRESENTS. I EXPECT THAT ALL BIDDERS UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE BIDDING TO BUY, NOT GET FIRST CHANCE TO INSPECT AND THAT END OF AUCTION SALE IS THEREFORE FINAL. THE CAR IS PERFECTLY CAPABLE OF BEING DRIVEN AWAY. TEST DRIVES WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE DUE TO INSURANCE CONSTRAINTS BUT I WILL TAKE ANY GENUINELY INTERESTED PARTY FOR A DRIVE. I AM PREPARED TO ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS DURING THE TERM OF THE AUCTION AND THE CAR IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION BY APPOINTMENT IN WEST GIPPSLAND 10 MINS FROM PAKENHAM. PAYMENT IN CASH AT END OF SALE AND NO INTEREST IN THE VEHICLE SHALL PASS TO THE PURCHASER WITHOUT PAYMENT IN FULL. I WILL NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL FOR THIS SALE. I ALSO HAVE NO INTEREST IN SWAPPING OR OTHER DEALS, POSSIBLY UNLESS THE BENEFIT IS SIGNIFICANTLY IN MY FAVOUR......... KINDLY READ AND APPLY THE NOTES AT THE END OF THIS LISTING "ADDITIONAL PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS" PLEASE NOTE ALSO THAT I HAVE ANOTHER OF THESE CARS, 260Z 2+2 WITH 5 SPEED, WHICH I SHALL BE SELLING AND ALSO A SMART AND VERY COOL BLACK 300ZX WITH FULL BODY KIT AND TARGA TOP....... THANK YOU AND MAY ALL GOOD FORTUNE ATTEND YOU....

Has anyone seen this car yet?

Hello I have been following this forum for the last month since I decided to buy my first zcar and had settled on a 260z 2+2, so this looks perfect. Any advice for a rookie on things to look out for with this car? Thanks BNE
