Gareth Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 That could be a good base for a project car! Why cut it up for parts if there are many Zs in worse condition? In Europe, every car enthusiast would knock his/her head after hearing that this 240Z was to become a parts source... At this rate, in 10 years there will be almost no early Zs left in the States. And you'll be wondering - what the hell happened to them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Every Z I get is a parts car to me unless it is not rusty. This car can be saved and made back into a driver but for people like me, it helps fund my car if I parted it out. I was also thinking about that guy out there who has done a complete resto to the frame and is missing partsto but his back together. A parts car doesn't mean chop it up and crush it. It is sometimes for extra parts only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 And what do you mean by early Z's? s30 bodies? Plenty of them around....on the road/running different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareth Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 And what do you mean by early Z's? s30 bodies? Plenty of them around....on the road/running different story. By "Early Zs" I mean the S30 bodies. I'm sorry if my post sounded offensive, but we Europeans didn't get many Zs during their production run (my '71 240Z was among 89 others which were exported to Europe and some minor markets in 1971). That's why I'm so irritated with hearing that this or that Z is going to become a parts car... I was lucky, because my Z was in quite good condition for a Euro car - I didn't have to replace the floor pans or the frame rails... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 I understand what you mean. I hope whoever bought the car is able to save it because it did look very clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
