Yeah, No good deed goes unpunished. I wrote him and told him about the misinformation and gave him the two links. He emailed me back three times with several rude comments and a threat to report me if I emailed him again as well as the statement "if he could reach out and ring my neck he would." I hope someone doesn't buy it thinking they are getting a 240Z radio -- unless of course they have a spare 240Z faceplate then they could probably make it work I suppose. I guess my question was so long it was split in two. Not sure why he bothered to post it on his auction if he disagreed with me so much. Gary D.

he must have been using powerful drugs back then. to be able to buy a 74 in 72.

Forward his emails to ebay and get the auction cancelled, actually, don't bother, as ebay seem to ignore all complaints unless its about someone cheating them out of there fees.

Sign up his email address to a bunch of spam sites :bandit:

"are you on Crack? That radio is NOT out of a 72' or ANY year 240Z. 260 or 280Z maybe, but definately NOT a 240Z. Good luck selling under a fraudulant listing.... I've owned every year of 240Z from late 69' to late 73' and YES I am an Expert in this field."

That is the letter I just sent him. I don't know about you guys, but I know I feel much better now. LOL

Every once in a while being stupid does actually hurt someone, since this guy actually posted the eBay questions you have sent him. He didn't have to, you can opt out of doing so, but he did for some reason.

I'd really like to know what person at Motor Sport told this guy it's worth 300 bucks (if it even did happen) ... Ebay's great, but it's also a great place to flog off crap that people will pay money for as someone has bid on the radio.

I remember a while back a Brussels Sprout went for something like 1,600 Sterling Pounds (over 2,300 USD) after it got publicity on several websites and tv shows. I'm still waiting for the day when someone is working on the Z car and the metal warps just right that you can see a impression/vision of the Mother Mary. You've got yourself a guaranteed winner right there :lick:

Nothing good has sold in the last month, but I did find a really expensive candle:

Gotta love eBay, at least for entertainment value alone ...

[V8-240Z]

I don't often get on a band wagon but I had to make a exception here. I simply told him.

About your radio, I have owned every year 240Z and I can tell you and be 100% positive that radio as it sets did not come from a 240Z. That face plate is 260Z to 280Z and will not fit any stock 240Z heater control bezel.

[WingZr0]

Is it possible there was a 240z that had a 260z controll bezel panel

Just curious, the guy seems pretty Irate :rambo:

Don't think so, as an artist I can take a blow torch and get the same shape as that Candle Mary.

But it does look pretty though for a thing of wax, Like a ice sculpture :tapemouth

Tom,

That was really painful to interpret. I need an aspirin or glass of something strong.
