So, I'm thinking about posting my car online at BAT.  It's a 1973 white/red 240z that I bought 3 years ago from the original owner. 47 years owned!  I even have the original sales receipt and title. Summary of things I've done or in a couple of limited cases (suspension), paid to have done:
 

  • Gas tank restore, chem wash, all new vapor and gas lines, fuel filters, etc
  • Restored original steel rims and 1973 set of hubcaps; added more classic profile tires
  • Installed rebuilt SU ('70-'72) Paltech carbs, powder coated air housing, new coolant lines, fuel rail, yanked out 73 emissions bits, etc
  • Suspension: Eibach progressive springs, shocks, bushings, Motorsport Auto sway bars
  • 1973 bumper molding replacement (bump/fender gap) -- this was extremely hard to find; wound up buying it from another Z Forum user from Denmark
  • Exhaust system: New ceramic coated header and full performance exhaust system (Motorsport Auto)
  • Reinstalled original 6.5w radio + 2 5" speakers + tied-in to replaced retractable antenna
  • Installed separate bluetooth, amp, 2 6x9 speakers for upgraded sound experience
  • Interior (new): vinyl kit, door panel restoration, new upholstered seats (Motorsport Auto), replaced red interior panels throughout, floor mats, rearview mirror, new ashtray, center console, etc
  • Full detailing of interior, insulation of interior for noise reduction, fixed tachometer wiring, fixed break system leak, speedometer cable replacement, choke cable refurbishment, misc grommets and fasteners, electronic ignition, new ballast
  • Original 4-speed manual transmission. Original color was Himalayan White, but it is currently a Pearl White.  Motor was rebuilt about 20 years ago. Compression good across all 6 cylinders.
  • Still have tons of original parts including the flat top carbs and air filter housing
  • Working A/C.

A few pics below.

Any thoughts on best sites? I'm guessing BAT, but also considering eBay or Hagerty Marketplace.

You have what looks like a very nice 240Z.  Keep in mind that you missed the peak.  I've seen BaT Z's come down a bit over the past few months.  That said, you should do well.  My dad sold a car on Hemmings last year and did very well, so you might check that site out as well.

Pretty car. I agree the peak has settled some. I would think it's BaT or the other sites. Not both. I might put it on Hemmings or Hagerty for a while. See what it does. I guess the real risk is you might leave money on the table because you don't know what it might bring on BaT...
