Oiluj Posted March 13, 2010 Share #13 Posted March 13, 2010 I agree. It only takes 10 minutes to roll a car outside the garage and take a few pics in sunlight... That he doesn't want to take it outside for photos sounds very fishy to me...

ajmcforester Posted March 13, 2010 Share #15 Posted March 13, 2010 Ok ye people of "half empty glasses" do you really think a 39 yr old battery would still be in working order. It was probably taken out for storage and kept for originality and the "red top" bought to help awaken the Z from its slumber. Just because the red top is in the picture, doesn't mean the other isn't available. (for show purposes of course) I know a 1932 ford coup V8 with all the parts it had in 1932 including the working battery. It sits in a special underground car vault to store cars in working order. So you never know what you may find, even if the ad is a little exaggerated if I lived in the area I'd look, if it didn't have the exaggerations I'd fly-out to look.

ajmcforester Posted March 13, 2010 Share #17 Posted March 13, 2010 And what exaggerations would those be? Not you but the ad stating original battery, of course it could be on the side of the car, but it hints the ad has exaggeration in it.

moonpup Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share #19 Posted March 17, 2010 So, what good is it to have all you nice Z folk up there in the Northwest if we can't get anyone to go check out this car and report back with your findings! I know the ad says "no tire kickers" but come on, use your imagination, LIE..... do something to get the real poop on this Z (more pics would be nice also) Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/35029-collectors-alert-could-be-worth-checking-out/?page=2#findComment-312781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLPurcell Posted March 17, 2010 Share #20 Posted March 17, 2010 I am in the process of making an offer on the car contingent on it checking out. If he accepts my offer, "probably not", I plan to fly out and inspect it. If it gets that far I guess it will be too late to post the results of the inspection. jlp So, what good is it to have all you nice Z folk up there in the Northwest if we can't get anyone to go check out this car and report back with your findings!

I don't have a desire to waste my time or the seller's, just to take more pictures to post here. -Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/35029-collectors-alert-could-be-worth-checking-out/?page=2#findComment-312810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arne Posted March 18, 2010 Share #22 Posted March 18, 2010 I probably don't really want to know. I still think I'd rather have a 919 yellow 240Z, but really don't think I should be pursuing that right now...

So Jerry, I guess you never ended up coming out to inspect it. Was the seller firm on the $19,500 price?-Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/35029-collectors-alert-could-be-worth-checking-out/?page=2#findComment-323701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted June 26, 2010 Share #24 Posted June 26, 2010 71 240 for only $1.28 per mile! Actually, using moonpup's per mile price in the first post, it must have been listed for $25k the first time, so it is on sale now! Down to just $1.00 per mile!-Mike Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/35029-collectors-alert-could-be-worth-checking-out/?page=2#findComment-323714 Share on other sites More sharing options...
