-Car number 795 has a little rust but runs and drives

Texas car in LA.

It also has more than a little rust! Seems like a lot even for an early car, maybe not though. It is still a big project

Texas plates and kind of looks like it's been under water.  Apparently it runs though.

The hub caps alone are worth thousands, right?

It does have that submerged look.

Might be a hurricane car.  Still, one of the first 800 Z's is probably worth taking a shot on.  Even at $10,000.  Looks like it still has the monkey-motion transmission.  Unmodded.  Survivor!

"has a little rust"

Remember there is always 100% more rust than you can see!

But hey maybe it's worth it cuz of the low vin?

The low vin's are hard to pin a price down on. I would say it's worth half that, but who knows. It might bring 10k with the market the way it is now

This car is not one of the first 800 Zs.

This car is many things not more than an issue of rust.

Seeing how I am in Los Angeles and all..........I have called over two days and not gotten any response.

How can you tell if it's a true submarine?

The smell,  you would have to replace all of the interior to get that smell out.
