Hello fellow Classic Zers, yes that's right I'm sucking up. I recently located a 71 that is slightly damaged but according to reports roadworthy and not rotted out. I am now wondering if there is anyone in So Cal willing to take a look at the car to verifiy that is worth the time and effort of dragging it to Canada.

If the z is around the san diego area i'll take a look for you.

Where in So. Cal. ?

I'm in San Bernardino. Where's the car located?

A car from SOUTHERN California to Newfoundland, Canada?

Wouldn't ENGLAND be closer?

J/K and curious, you're not really asking if it's worth dragging clear across the continent and well on your way to Greenland are you?

It had better be a sweet deal, but for that distance, why not ask RolfSis what she wants for her car. She's a bit closer.

England is closer ... when I live in Toronto my brother in law was on the rock (Newfoundland) and it was a shorter distance for me to fly home to Houston, Texas to see family than it was for him to go back home.

Sailor Bob, I hope the car works out for you, just be sure to get some good suspension, I hear the roads there are really bad ... I'll find out next year in July for my brother in laws wedding.

Hey Guys thanks for the responses. I am waiting to hear back from the vender, with details. It does appear to be a good deal but without a first hand look it's hard to commit. It's a 71 with some repairable fender damage. The lady tells me it runs great and what's there is original.

As to distance and driving - I've done it befor - the 280 came by rail ($$$$)

the 240 I drove home from British Columbia (Coast to Coast) wouldn't mind doing it again. But this one may be a rail job as well.

I'll post again when I have the address.

Hey Gregg where is your brother in law located?

Hey Gregg where is your brother in law located?

He is in Halifax now (a ferry captain) but his wedding is in a small town called St. Jones Within which is north of St. John's. He use to live in St. Johns when he was going to school.

It's a small world - I lived in St. John's for many years I am presently just outside the City.

Just heard from the vender, turns out the car is in Redding - I guess thats just about as far Noth as North goes in California - sorry.

I saw some additional pictures and, both front fenders are damaged and the radio facia/heater is missing, but otherwise not so bad.

Anyone in that neck of the woods in the mood for a drive?

I'll have to respectfully bow out. There are places out of state that are closer. Redding is about 600 miles north of me.

I completely get it - thanks for the response though Stephen.

I am wondering if I should open a new thread with the area in the header.
