n4soccer06 Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Hi all, I am hoping for some help or if anyone knows any information about this 240z for sale on eBay. http://my.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MyEbay&gbh=1 (he has changed the price right now for me to stop it from selling till I give him a answer) The car is in CA right now and I may in Virginia. I was wondering if anyone has seen this car before. From the eBay listing it looks like it is really good condition, need a little bit of work but I am not planning on a full restoration. I am going to make it a track car, different motor, trans, etc. From the listing the car is currently in Orange, Ca. Also anyone have any advise or questions I should ask him.

Cheesecakepiebar Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I am guessing that the link was intended to go to this car. It's the only 240Z currently for sale on ebay in CA. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1973-Datsun-240z-original-California-nissan-z_W0QQitemZ230407168500QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Cars_Trucks?hash=item35a55661f4#ht_924wt_1165 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n4soccer06 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 The guy has changed the price on the listing for me. I would pay $2500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stravi757 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Well thats a much better price, I still wouldn't buy that one but I do live in Cali so I have much more to choose from. If I were you, I would check out the car that hoov100 said he'd sell you first. the car on ebay doesn't look like its in the greatest condition. probably has a bunch of rust that we cant see in pictures...

FlatBlack Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 "The rear control arm needs to be replaced" I wonder what that means.... And that paint just looks like it's hiding rust to me. Could just be crappy photos, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n4soccer06 Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 The rear control is messed up but he has a replacement one that comes with the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJBrian Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Buying a car online scares me. I went and looked at least 10 Z's when I was looking for mine and I saw so many pieces of rusty crap that you couldnt believe. Even the ones that said they were Ca only cars, always garaged, or no rust were all crap. I would keep looking local if it is a option.

FlatBlack Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 The rear control is messed up but he has a replacement one that comes with the car. I get that it's messed up, but have you seen a S30 rear LCA? You'd have to really bugger something bad to need it to be replaced. I don't know, I'd try to find something close. I spent almost a year looking for an S30. *edit* Are you moving to California?? It's going to be a fortune to ship, you can find a decent car closer to you, I promise.

V8INtheZ Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 A car like that sells for around 1500 here in Cali..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipping probably won't be as much as you think. Personally, I plan on going the CA or AZ car route as soon as I can afford it. One that's spent it's whole life there, that is, as I've actually had both an AZ and CA car, both rusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
