I truly am sorry , really , but I think that you are in sticker shock here. Yes there is a vary slim possability that you will find the "GOLDEN " Bee Bee for not much money . Those stories have gone on for as long as I have been involved in cars , which most likely longer than you are alive. I know where you are coming from believe me . I know you are in love with these cars as I am and if you are not driving one right know , and enjoying the experience , well , life is really short and there are no do overs . Where else can you buy a classic sports car that stands out from the pack and has the performance that they have for under 10K , reguardless of make. To find a car like you say you want for what you are looking to spend , man I really think you need to reevalueate, and I really don't mean this as a critissem I dont . If I find such a find and am not in a position to buy it my self I will for sure pass on the info. I mean this as a friend. Gary

for up to about 2k i would expect a decent car. i dont mean perfect paint and interior just a clean car, not totally devoid of rust but not a rust bucket either.

now for about 5k i would expect nice paint, mostly rust free, good trans and motor and some of what im looking for.

i have found quite a few actually and i have actually found the one that my 3.1 stroker is going into, in la for 1700, its a clean almost rust free early 71 240Z with the hatch vents, and euro tail lights.

they are out there, they are available, they are to be had but patience and daily searching will bring to you what you want. you must be willing to search and travel as most cars like this are on the west coast just waiting for someone to come get them

heres the 71 i will be getting this friday :love:

my search is finally over

Hmmm, USD$1700 = AUD$2833. That is a very nice looking car for that sort of money. An early Z in Australia for that price would be in dire need of a comprehensive de-rust and respray as well as mechanical attention.

Lucky guy!

It's just a pity you'd have to move to America to find such an awesome deal like that. :tapemouth

*runs*

Congrats on your find, looks to be a beautiful car. Is that no dash cracks I see???

[halz]

Yeh, well very deal has its downside..:tapemouth

...kidding guys.
