1970 240z vin-4587

[signal34]

Lucked out and was able to pick this up last weekend. Same owner since 72 and has been in storage for fifteen years. Owner claims that is was never a daily driver and that the 92K on the odo is correct. Body is great, floors and rails will need to be replaced. Car was originally white with the blue interior but the PO changed it to the orange with a tan interior in the late seventies and had fiberglass fenders installed. Also included were a set of fiberglass rear quarter repair panels that he never used.

To be completely fair the camera makes it look better than it really is but overall the body is in good shape.

Here is a quick iPhone shot from when I picked it up. The gentleman in the background is the previous owner taking a few last snapshots before it left.

That's pretty, I like it. VIN not too far from mine. I am curious to know what you paid.

Beautiful buy!

My #5998 isn't too far off either!

Hey Signal34,

Where is Indiana are you? I have a set of floor boards and rails I can let you have cheap! If you are close enough, shipping wouldn't even be a problem. Let me know.

Carl

PM'd you on the floors and frame rails.

I saw that on craigslist-500$ I think someone should call the police. Congrats. If I didn't have a garage full now I would have been interested.

Madkaw is correct about the price at $500. :surprised

It hasn't been started for a roughly a decade so there will be some work involved just to get it started and there is a fair amount of underbody rust to deal with.

Even with the work it needs I also think he was right that it was a steal!

Carl you have a PM.

You , sir , just got a real deal . I'm a little envious !

Pics of the interior ?

[madkaw]

Hopefully Todd you will have the same luck i had with this 71 i worked on a year ago that hadn't been running in over 15 years. The car ran good and the compression came up nicely after running for a while-these are great motors. Are you in Bloomington?

I'll try to snap a few pics of the interior and get them posted.

I hope mine goes that easily. I'm just east of Bloomington between Bloomington and Nashville.

Good for you!

If those are stacked ANSA tips on the exhaust, and in good shape, I am really jealous.
