Saw this beauty on the way back from Tail of the Dragon, and waited posting it until I could contact the seller for pricing...

Build date 12/70, original crack free dash, fairly rust free (some surface rust on the rails, but not much), some NOS seals-still in original packaging, nice enough American Racing slotted mags, fresh paint (though there is some rust bubbling around the drip rails-wonder what else the paint is hiding)-generally a nice looking vehicle-but $10,000 is just too much.

The seller seems to have his head in the clouds (or sand)-he also has a sad looking blue gold edition (cracked dash and t-top panels) that is also being sold for $10,000.

The 240 is originally a California car-so he says, anyway.

I would expect the guy to lower the price, but I doubt he would lower it to a reasonable price. As is, the car is semi-disassembled (passenger seat is loose, interior panels missing and damaged), no exterior markings-well, you get the picture. I will be going back to the place for spare parts for myself (trashed zx in back with mint rear bumper). I'll get more photos of it then, under the auspices of researching for a potential buyer...

I saw one simular to it in a Pick your own Part in Chula Vista CA last Saturday morning. It was a 10/70 automatic. Striped pretty good already, it was sad to see. The body looked good not sure how she ended up there. I was surprised by how high the VIN was an that it was an automatic.

No red dot? Forget it!

Oddly enough, it has the stalk from a red dot, but a newer head...

Brian, you really should go take a peek at it, it's only about an hour away-just drive your Z so the seller sees what he should aspire to!

Not odd at all. My 10/70 240Z also has the early stalk, but not the red dot. Seems to me that in the red dot thread we decided that was normal for the late-1970 build date cars.
