'72 with a siezed motor, maybe a decent body for $4500. Something from a 1960's science fiction movie on top of the 4 bbl carb.

Looks to be an early '74 260Z.

 

That looks like a great buy even with just three pictures.  Maybe @Racer X needs one more for his collection.

That's a classic Edelbrock filter.

What do you see that makes you think that?

 

The numerous red wires connected ground is kind of scary.

Seriously, what are you guys looking at?

Is it the front bumper?  The big gap?

I added to my post above. 

 

Here's a one owner 74.  I think you guys are right.  A new mystery...

Still looks like a good deal.  Bet he doesn't have a title.

The ad says Title status Clean. 

It does have a hole in the roof.

I never really look at those side bars, I missed it.  I'd want to see it.

Still.  $4500.  Has wheels, looks like it rolls.  Seats.  Engine.  Etc.  

Probably an automatic.  Edit - never mind, that's over there too.  Even better.  Manual, clean, rolls.  good project.

Your killing me...Zed🤣😂 It also says on the side bar "Manual transmission". But who knows for sure until you see it. The seller thinks it is a 72
