    Well, I import classic cars as a hobby from Japan and personally I'm more of a boxy coupe guy like 510, KPGC10, and the only Z I have been trying to get me a is PS30 but still non in my price range (non under $50k so far) so I found couple of clean 240ZG but they are still in mid $30k for decent one, and that's why I start looking for early Z here and I found this car, but I have a 71 Celica GTV is coming for a customer but he doesn't seem to happy about his purchase so I might keep that one for myself if I could clear things out with him. (I know they are not the same car and all but I like the GTV alot so...) But as you said for the price, this is very good starter and being the first gen I think does make a big difference, so I might pick it up and clean it up a bit and I think it would be a cool back up daily !!

    Thanks a lot guys !! I just wasn't sure about the value of the car and if being the first gen would make any difference or not, otherwise I do own several classic Nissans and Datsuns but this would be my first Z so I had to come here about that but the rest I know how the game goes. Yes that is just two tone paint job they did, there is a little bit of rust under battery tray but I think more of surface rust than actual rust but I'm going to get the battery out for sure if I end up getting the can and check it out before. I did look under the car and it was very clean but I'll do it again for sure. He said he won't go lower than $5k so I just have to see how it goes and what are my other options are..... Thanks again for all of your inputs.

    I'm buying my first Z and I was wondering what you guys think about it and how much you think I should pay for it Any comment and help is appreciated. The car is first gen 1970 240z 1400 vin number, most likely with 155k or it could be 55k don't know, California, car, no rust or rot anywhere, only some surface rust by door jams. It's been painted once in 80s, same as factory silver. The dash has normal cracks, seats bottom needs works but overall decent interior. The engine is original motor with matching 2400 valve cover, it comes with AC and it works, upgraded to 5 speed but he has the factory 4 speed for it. let me know what you think, Thanks
