JSM Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Little to no rust, dual webbers? Runs good,etc. Haven't seen it or driven it but thinking of just getting it to flip? Thoughts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globerunner513 Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 sounds decent...any pics? z's arent' the best cars to turn, but could work out for you this time. actually i know of some pretty beat up 280's going for $800-$1000 so you might have some options.

Pop N Wood Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 If there are no holes rusted through anything, you could drive that car to Montreal and sell if for $4K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 Similar one didn't sell on ebay for 2800. Granted paint is better. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Datsun-Z-Series-1974-Datsun-260z-Nice-car-ready-to-run_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6187QQihZ012QQitemZ220179491844QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW I'd be happy just making 800.00 to flip it.

Thumper Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Nah doesn't look worth it to me.... Umm can I have the contact info J/K With a non-rusted body and minor mechanical work its worth it. Heck if its in good enough shape I know someone who will buy it from YOU right now for $1500 thats all he's got... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 I'm going tonight! Got the wifes permission, she knows it is a sickness. Hope it is as clean as he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 ...211 miles round trip ...3 hours and 45 min of time ...2 repairable but rusty fenders ...both doors shot ...rear hatch shot ...driver side floor board bad ...battery tray fist size hole through fender well ...half dollar sized hole in fire wall ...light rust appearing on the rear quarters ...ALL tires shot ...would only start with ether and would barely rev above 2K ...not driveable needing towed ...someone drilled holes in the hood because they were too lazy to fix the latch $500-800 to keep maybe, $1200 no way. Worth the trip cause it could have really been clean. I told him if he couldn't sell to call me back. Some sucker will buy it. Oh well, I'll keep searching. It was better than the 71 I went and looked at for $2500.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumper Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Another Z taken by rust. Oh well. Good luck on finding another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 ...211 miles round trip...3 hours and 45 min of time ...2 repairable but rusty fenders ...both doors shot ...rear hatch shot ...driver side floor board bad ...battery tray fist size hole through fender well ...half dollar sized hole in fire wall ...light rust appearing on the rear quarters .. Not to sound like a cynic, but as soon as you said "no rust, but I haven't seen it" I -knew- this is what you were going to find. I've heard that one so many times that "no rust" automatically translates into "unsalvagable" to me now. Oh well, don't give up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
