Posted May 3, 200717 yr comment_208174 I finally have to sell the Z:cry: I've owned her since I was 14 & put gallons of blood sweat & tears since then but I'm moving to Colorado, & have a credit card to pay off, so away she goes... Oh well, at least I'll still have my technically challenged friend Gary's Z to keep my busy (all the fun, with none of the financial responsibility! yes! ) I'll be posting an add in the classifieds as soon as I can get pictures. wish me luck!

May 3, 200717 yr comment_208215 Don't do it. I sold my '77 when I was 19. It took me 18 years before I managed to get another. I had someone tell me never to sell it, but I didn't listen to them at the time and I regret it to this day.

May 3, 200717 yr comment_208243 If you are SERIOUSLY in credit card debt, then I guess selling it should be a real option for you, but if you aren't, consider what you can do to get things back on track and keep the Z. I can speak from experience. I just made a move overseas, to a job which pays next to nothing (if I told you what i make you would think I am crazy) but I enjoy my job a lot. When I decided to move I had a choice to sell the Z or not. I choose to keep it and I am VERY glad I did. In fact, it will be our "second" car while here and will provide a bit of luxury when my wife is working and I need a car. I miss it very much, but it will be here in just 8 days! Was supposed to come yesterday, but the container was delayed. My suggestion ... gather up all the things you DON'T need, then put them all on eBay ... when I moved I gathered up everything I really didn't need and put it all on eBay ... I made just over 3,500 USD! It can be done .... just some things to think about. If you really enjoy your Z you will not think of selling things you don't need to finance it and keep it.

May 3, 200717 yr Author comment_208292 I'm not SERIOUSLY in debt, but even a little is too much as far as I'm concerned & its mainly to finance the move/school. I'm pretty much selling everything: Z, quad, motorcycle parts, my body (no offers on that one yet)the only things I'm keeping are the 914 & my 61 ford F-100the ford 'cuz its my project with my dad & the 914 'cuz it was a gift.trust me if I was in a position to sell the Porsche I'd do it in a flash.(no joke, I had a nightmare last night about being "one of those Porsche guys") but at this point, selling the Z is my only option....that or selling drugs:tapemouth: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/24204-well-guys-the-time-has-come/#findComment-208292 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 4, 200717 yr Author comment_208352 maybe all isn't lost...I was at work thinking about this situation & I may have a compromise worked out.A few years ago my dad sold his project car (74 260Z) to one of my good friends for $800 & since then Its been sitting in his driveway taking up space.so I figure this:sell my Z & several associated parts, get a few grand out of it, take $800 buy back my dad's old car & since its already flared, & basically gutted, just build a no bullsh*t racecar.my money situation would be a lot better,& I'd still have a Z.plus I'll get to build something awesome from the ground upsound good?
