The intake looks a little strange to me, anyone know what's going on there. 

$12,500 Buy It Now.

 

I'm not sure either, but it kinda looks like it has an old school turbo set up on it, although I'm entirely sure that that's what that is. 

My thought too, was some turbo set up. I only see one SU and it is in the front of the apparatus. 

 

It's a draw through turbo set up

$8700 current bid at 6:15 PST.  Ends at noon.  I have a friend who is a member of Copart, the one this Z is at is minutes away from he and I.  I told him to put a bid in for me, but it's gone well beyond where I said was my max haha.  Pipe dreaming for a steal I was.

It is surprising how strong the interest can be on decent or even really rusty Z's on Copart. To the point where there is almost no difference in price from Copart to Craigslist. But the craigslist car normally has a clean title. Making it much more preferable. I have watched several times for a bargain but hard to come by unless you are looking at 280z's

$8700 bid and reserve not met yet, I see 2 days and a couple hours left on the clock. 

They do seem to go for high prices, for the condition they are in. I've done better on Craigslist and Offerup.

The car needs a lot of work for $8700! The "buy it now's" are usually pretty optimistic. If you are the high bidder, they will usually try to haggle to get the reserve met. I rarely budge much on price

I thought I would tag on here instead of creating a new thread. I watched a 71 240z roll through Copart today. It had a Florida title and was probably really rusty. It went through for $4,550! plus fees (maybe  another 20%). It sold to Poland. So it has to be shipped to Europe on top of that!! Amazing...

This one runs tomorrow

I saw it when it was in Mass, which is where the title is from. Look at the big holes int he doors and rockers. You know there is more of that! $4,600 already!

Looks like the car in the original post is still around.
