ShaggyZ Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 http://austin.craigslist.org/cto/863574679.html I emailed him to ask what, other than the convertible conversion and the body kit, makes it worth so much. He responds: the engine is 81 z with the dule carbs off the 240z and 5 speed trans all done by a 30 year nissan mechanic. this is a 30 year old car that is in better condition than most cars that are 5 years old. I could see maybe $8k for that. If it's in as great of condition as he claims, perhaps somewhere near $9k. I would not buy it even if I had the money and then some.

ZX2+2 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 doing a convertible swap on a Z is just wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skib Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I never thought I could say this about any Z but thats a gross looking car, reminds me of a foxbody mustang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COmputoman Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 One word... Vomit. That guy must be trying to win the lottery with this one. Must be an older guy that doesn't know the street value of these cars at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Purple240zt Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Says best over over 10k, doesn't seem to unreasonable. Certainly not my cup of tea. Appraisals are just that, appraisal. Has nothing to do with market value but is very valuable when it comes to insuring a car. Evan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHO-Z Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Heck I would sell my convertible for less than that! That Pic is poor quality if you know what I mean. He needs to show it without the top up and a better angle. PT Barnum "There is a sucker born every second" or the rumor goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerryb Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Watch your mouth........you may be getting close to hitting a nerve for some of us older guys......whatever older means. Must be an older guy that doesn't know the street value of these cars at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
