Located about 10 minutes drive from where I live and has been there many years. A friend told me several years ago there was a z car there but I didnt realise it was 338. Looks like to has a 72 model year dash in it for some reason.
Hi Huw
The radio you have doesnt look right for a 71 as it doesnt have the vertically mounted power antenna switch. What month is your 71? I have 09/71 production date and it has the radio with the vertically mounted power antenna switch.

A few "why would yous" on this one. The replacement floor pans are interesting as they have no drain holes. Likewise the replacement rails.
Good to see this one progressing again back to life. Also good to see the factory style blackout on the radiator support panel. Are you going to put it onto the seat mounting points?
Curious to ask what you did with the gear shift knob. Did you restore the original or replace it? Did you come up with a fix for the "mandatory" cracked plastic/chrome lower trim ring?
Depends on your definition of "value" I guess.
Value
noun
the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something.
It is a super nice looking car.

Wonder what the VIN of this one is. Looks very nice and stock, also an auto.
Any members in Tasmania familiar with this one?
<Edit>
Online registration check shows engine number as L24-042387. No VIN reported.

Nice looking car. Not sure if we are in this price range for a 260-Z yet?
