OlderThanMe Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hey guys... I have found a VERY low vin (4 digits long and the first number is 3) 1970 240Z... It has the strap style seats. Should I get it? Oh... BTW its very cheap and includes a parts car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that there wil be a 260Z body at Pullapart by wednesday unless someone here acts quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlderThanMe Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 Shell, transmission, diff/axles(potentially spoken for), windows hatch fenders, crossmembers, steering wheel/column and a couple bare L6 blocks if you want them... $200 and bring a trailer. I have a bunch of stock interior stuff that can be had for cheap. (panels, stock seats, headliner, carpet set, and a couple boxes of OE usec flywheel, springs, etc.. can be had for an extra $50 if your getting the shell) I'm pulling the brakes, suspension, gas tank, radiator, and motor tomorrow.

rturbo 930 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 whats the reason youre getting rid of the 260z? i never thought id see you get rid of it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 couple reasons. 1: Everything that I have done to the car can be transferred to another shell. 2: my shell is about 5mm out of straight(twisted) which normally wouldn't be a problem if I stayed L6... But I'm going to be building new motor and tranny mounts that will be able to be bolted in any straight Z so I need a straight car to work with. 3 Freakin low vin series 1? Once in a lifetime thing to get. I'll have my suspension and other parts in it right off the bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
