Z's on BAT and other places collection

[Freez74]

That's nice little truck.  Reserve not met at 15k.

 

[CW240Z72]

He was asking $30K for that truck on Facebook. Seems like he should have went the BaT route for serious money 

[Patcon]

$30k seems like a lot for that truck

[zspert]

With all due respect Patcon, and I mean that, this truck is indeed worth that and possibly more.  It is extremely cherry in all respects. Just look at a few of the details.

1 - Original hose clamps

2 - All hold down hooks accounted for

3 - Washer bottle and overflow bottle largely mint

4 - No radio!!

5 - Seats all but perfect

6 - Bed is very clean

Yes, at BAT this truck would fetch big money if viewed by the right crowd.

Yes, I'd be very happy owning such a machine

I didn't look through the pictures, but you are probably correct if it is that original

[DatsunZGuy]

They would make a cute couple 😉

[Terrapin Z]

Only $110.000...

I like the edit screen on the pictures, classy.

"The chance to own a one-owner car with its original paint and such low mileage has clearly been enough to coax at least five bidders to offer more than the #4 value." 

Highly doubt both of those are true. Hints of overspray in the photos, and for it to only have 44K on the clock, you'd think a majority of the worm screw hose clamps, incorrect oil pressure sensor, universal radiator hose, and the general poor condition of the car, would not be there or replacements for the factory equipment.

144K and a cheap respray seem more likely.

I agree on the overspray on the data plate. However, they have lots of documentation. The mileage might be able to be established that way.

The master and radiator hose, may be recent additions to get it running

Unfortunately,  it has a sunroof.

It does have a hand throttle.  If it's original,  it would be pretty rare. Dash may be uncracked. Left fender is pretty wavy. Still $21k is pretty healthy for a car like that
