My Mecum Purchase - 1972 240Z

An absolute steal! You're a lucky man. Enjoy.

So I took it for a state inspection today. It passed. I took a few more photos, including what appear to be problems areas, namely the windshield spots and the paint by the left corner of the hatch. 

I tried getting some undercarriage photos too, but I ultimately need to get good ones on a lift.

Looks pretty good so far. Has some small bits of rust but for the price it’s not bad. The problem areas you can check will be under the floor mats and in the rear hatch area. Pull up the carpet / jute material and have a look.

What on earth are these things?

[grannyknot]

Those are the drug bins.

I mean the yellow things that were in there. I guarantee these bins must have been used by owners to store drugs.

Wheel chocks

Did they come with the car?

Yes, they came with the car, along with a jack and lug wrench - all of which were stored in the tool storage bins.  You should also have 4 standard lug nuts, to mount the steel wheel that the Spare Tire is mounted on.

The chocks are the only items that are in the two bins. Bah.
