KenFirch Posted November 8, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 8, 2017 Saw this ad, which is within 20 minutes of me. Seller says it’s #399.

Patcon Posted November 8, 2017 Share #3 Posted November 8, 2017 It's a shame they shaved all the lights and gas door. It also looks like they cut in side exhaust below the rear bumper. Those mods really hurt the value of the car... Is the "clear no op" title an issue Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/58914-early-1269-build-240z/#findComment-534393 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patcon Posted November 9, 2017 Share #5 Posted November 9, 2017 It could be a good investment if it's really going to be as cheap as the add suggest. Even if you had to undo all the mods. Those cars are gonna be worth a lot of money before long...

JSM Posted November 9, 2017 Share #6 Posted November 9, 2017 Seems they update the post with more pics. Just noticed they even shaved the gas tank lid. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/58914-early-1269-build-240z/#findComment-534437 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers not matching will really ding the value. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/58914-early-1269-build-240z/#findComment-534441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way to know it's not the original motor is to examine the numbers, but the mods are visible from 30' not 6"...

Hardway Posted November 10, 2017 Share #9 Posted November 10, 2017 Looks like the CL ad was updated. It is now an auction to be held on 11/18/2017. Shame so much was modified on it.

JSM Posted November 10, 2017 Share #10 Posted November 10, 2017 I hate when people do that. If you going to have an auction, put it on ebay and tell folks that, but craigslist, really. Had a guy selling a $600 300zxt. Asked for pics, 2 days later he says he's changed his mind, blah, blah, blah.

Asked for pics, 2 days later he says he's changed his mind, blah, blah, blah. It happens. I bought a '69 Camaro Z28 clone that way several years ago. Was on CL for $13K and was 3 hours away. Rush to the bank on a Friday, ended up having to go to two banks to get all the cash, go to the address he gives me, turns out its not his house. I call and after several attempts he finally gives the correct house and street several blocks over. I pull up at the same time another guy does with a truck and trailer. I am looking it over with like 7 other guys at this point and I just say, I will take it without even hearing it run. Another guy pops up and says he wants it too and the seller instantly and on queue turns in to an auctioneer. After several rounds I come out on top at $15K. Several guys including the guy with the trailer drove further than I did and were rightfully pissed. The seller did this by design and should consider himself lucky the other unhappy parties did not come back and give him a real piece of their mind. Just not cool.

So even at $15K it was money well spent? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/58914-early-1269-build-240z/#findComment-534546 Share on other sites More sharing options...
