WTB Early 70's Z car

[ryn]

Im really not picky other then I'd like a pre-78 Z car. It can be a 240z 260z, 280zx 2+2 or not, I really dont care. Interior can be shot, as long as a drivers seat, steering wheel, and gas/break/clutch pedals are present I'll be happy. I have about 1000 to spend max, and the car needs to be daily drivable as is. An alright body, good engine and crap interior would be satisfactory for me. But the engine is a must. Im probably just going to restore it, but if I come across some money I may go the SBC conversion...I'm in central florida and would like to get one soon. Thanks

if you want an early Z.. early 70's...

you will be looking for a 240Z.

The 260Z, 280Z and 280ZX are later years.

If you can find one... a 1970-1973 240Z are the early classics of the Z's.

The 1972's are rated the best 240Z's because of the carb's (round top)

Look around the classifieds at www.zcar.com

ehhh... I should rephrase it. I want a Z car from 1978 and older, not just early 70's. And I have looked at the zcar.com classifieds, I found a 79 280, and I may take that up as its onl 550 and can be a DD untill I can afford a restoration. But personally I think thats the transition year from sexy to ugly. So I'd rather have like a 72 240 or a 76 260...
