shameful bump. lol

Hi all, Once things ease up in the Covid state, I plan to go look at a car or two on my list, but figured I would ask around and see what people are thinking of selling. I would love a 240z, but I know most of them are out of my budget, as are most 260z (2-seaters). But I have seen a couple of 2-seaters recently sell for $40k, I was just too slow. Running & driveable is preferable and preferably in Victoria. Preferred with an Lseries motor, but will consider others. Can be manual or auto. I am not looking for a car in pieces or requiring major rust repairs, but also know I am not expecting a concourse car. Must be RHD, I will not consider LHD. Looking to spend around $40k depending on the car. Cheers, Ned

Good price for everything! In case that one doesnt work out, gearbox only. this one has apparently been rebuilt: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/154232948112

Haha, I said he sounded like an R-rated Santa.......

I thought Lachlan was all of the above, so the answer is: yes, yes, and definitely yes!

I like my oversized bagutte with heated seats thank you

not the C34 Stageas, they aren't "luxobarges," they just hearses

The guy isnt putting a price on it as such. Call him up and have a chat, he is a nice enough guy.

Pics or it didnt happen! haha "I couldn't afford a Datsun so I bought a Porsche!" this i can relate to on so many levels!

Is this what you are looking for? GTV might have some old ones.

Well as you can see above, #535 sold for $31k. but apparently had over $10k parts to go with it as well.

Not the lack of airbags?

You gotta be quick if you want to catch them all

Can we move it to somewhere like Lilydale Lake? Someone just needs to get there early to grab an area i guess. and i assume the Zs cant all be parked up on the grass like at your place.

I don't think it is that well known, but they have had a few Zs for a while. Race/Track cars in general can be a funny market. but this one, you can see has an early hatch, and the rear quarter vents possibly filled. probably doesnt look as good in person as it does in the pictures.

You should still be revving it to 7000rpm for those of us who dont own a Z! otherwise what's the point!? haha

#covid tax! Some around that are still below $30k. but even shitty R33 GTSTs are getting advertist for high 20s too!

Ha, I know!

Not going to auction at this stage

I haven't. looks to have sold already. Did you happen to save the photos by any chance?

sold for US$71k

Yeah, I think they have done a good job with it. one of the things I took from the reveal was that it had to have a lower center of gravity. Fun fact: the reveal date in the US was 15th of Sept, Mr K's Birthday.
