Any one looking for a "fixer" or parts '71 Z

[70z4fun]

This car is close by if anyone is looking. Price is right, but not something I am interested in. I can assist if someone is really interested. Car is in Central Oregon

I just wrote him and explained all the false facts. $2442 is a 70' not a 71' as stated. He also claimed that the 240Z's 150HP had the most HP of all Z's up to the 300ZX. WRONG.

I told him I appreciate him selling the car to someone else, who may or may not bring her back to a better former glory that it is at the moment.

So I wrote the buttmunch. And this is what I wrote. Nice, to the point and I thought I was doing him a favor.

"#2442 is a 70', NOT a 71'. Most likely made around Feb of 70' The 150HP 240Z put out the LEAST amount of horse power. That 150HP is at the crank, NOT the rear wheels. The 74' 260Z put out another 10HP more and the 280Z's came with about 165 to 170 at the Crank. The 280ZX, in 1979, put out just a few HP more than that, but only to compensate for the extra weight of the ZX body and its internal weight. I've owned Z's (3) for quite a while and make upgrade and performance items for the 240Z's. I appreciate you selling the car to someone who may or may not take it back to a more desirable shape. But please do a little research before making false statements that may lead to a very pissed off customer.

And this is what I got back in return. What an arse.

"THATS NOT WHAT I RED ,AND UNLESS YOUR BUYING THE DAM THING MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS ,I DONT THINK ANY BODY IS GOING TO GET PISSED OVER $250 YOU JACK arse!! MIND YOUR OWN !! "

Please, Somebody else, hell, as many of you as possible, write him and tell him the same thing I did. Just to jerk his chain. He Obviously needs it.

Sounds like it's not worth giving the guy a hard time, he has no idea what that " jap thing" is anyway.

Thought it might be something decent for someone for $250!

Some out there have no clue?????

It looks like a late 71 to me. Needs work!!!!
