I get it and have started browsing for a 260 or 280z that I could run and modify, but I agree with Mike. It's only a matter of time for the 260 & 280 start appreciating in this manner.

I have pictures in my build thread of working on a 240z rack.

I am not sure it is a "complete random blip". Will be interesting to watch future high value cars. By the time I get my car done and running it will be too valuable to drive!

WOW!!! ?

Yes. That sounds great!

I was hoping to spark some interst in them for you

I don't go on Facebook but Shelley does, and she has been really successful at finding parts for sale for me. Many of which don't show up any where else. I find their marketplace hard to search and with poor results. The few times I tried a few searches, I quit in frustration. I do agree though it appears the trend is towards more use of Facebook for selling parts and cars.

I didnt think those were "240z's" I thought they were some other variety

@jdking Did you sell the 3 cars?

Oh my! That didn't take long

and I like it that way...

I figured it was his house. I didn't want to throw stones because my yard has similarities ☺️ Thats why I don't want another project

No engine, no tranny but I have lots of spares here. I could probably get a title. A little bit of a gamble but I'm sure there is $1000 in parts in it. I just don't want any more projects right now.

Lots of cars like this in the South East and South West but they tend to be really rough. However as prices climb they become more viable restoration candidates if the rust is reasonably contained. This was a $200-300 car not that long ago. Not any more...

I would agree

Looks great!

Sure! But it's more like confetti at this point

They're proud of that

Somebody may have an interest in these. Getting more expensive every day... https://raleigh.craigslist.org/pts/d/durham-datsun-240-for-parts/6895350668.html This one is at a junkyard by the looks or it https://knoxville.craigslist.org/pts/d/strawberry-plains-datsun-240z/6898466586.html This ones not very cheap, figuring it's gonna have some rust on it... If somebody here buys them I can sleep better and won't have to fall into temptation. It'll be like it's still in the family

I sort of see it as the "Where is Waldo" game too. Although a number of you guys are better at it than me. My memory for the details just isn't good enough any more to critique a car at this level. I can get the big stuff but the little details, not so much

Does the kit come with front and back brakes? What is the selection of pads that fit?

The VIN number is not super low but it has a lot of pedigree and documentation to counter that. Does anyone see any flaws in the car?

Will be interesting to watch for sure

Ahhh, the engineer...

I might could have helped you get a title through SC, in the future. We can apply for a title if it's never been title in SC and is over 30 yrs old. Takes a little while but we have had success with this route in the past.
