For sale is a 1973 Datsun 240z with 85,000 original miles. I purchased this car in august of 2001 with the intention of doing a complete frame off restoration. The previous owner left this poor z uncovered in Dorchester Mass ( New England ) for 8 years so it has the typical rust associated with these cars. I started to unbolt the front end this past summer having made plans with a local rust specialist but was laid off from my job shortly after and I just don't have the money for the project at this time. This would be a great project car or even better a great parts car as much of this car is quite salvageable. If interested I am asking $1000.00 or best offer. Please email for more specific information at ddjdaly@aol.com. I would also be willing to part the car out if there is something specific anyone may be looking for.

Up for sale is a 1973 Datsun 240z with 85,724 original miles. Ipurchased this car in August of 2001 with the intention of restoring it. The previuos owner left this car uncovered in the Boston area for 8 years so it does have the typical rust associated with these early model z's. Fortunately the damage is not that extensive. Areas that need to be addressed are the drivers side rocker panel, right front fender and a few spots of surface rust. The dash is cracked and should be replaced or restored and I have a brand new set of carpets that came with the car but have not installed. The engine runs well but the carbs are out of sync. Previous owner replaced one of the carbs and I haven't gotten around to getting it in sync with the other one. I started to unbolt the right front fender to replace it but lost the garage I was renting and the bolts were rusted through so the fender still needs to be replaced. The rust damage is at the bottom back side of wheel well and could easily be patched. The miles are actual and I have a clear Massachusetts Title. I am asking $1300.00 or best and if anyone is interested feel free to contact me via email at ddjdaly@aol.com or call (401)723-9823 and ask for Dan

Recently purchased a 1973 240z from someone who left the poor car sitting in his driveway uncovered for 8 years in New Engaland of all places, amazingly the car started after only a few tries. God these cars are dependable. I took my baby home put her in the garage and waited for winter to end. I am now in the process of pulling her apart for a complete restoration and after getting the front end apart I found that what I thought was only minor rust to the passangers side wheel housing is much worse. Unfourtunatley I am having a very hard time finding replacement housings. If anyone has any info on where I can find them it would be greatly appreciated.
