Popular Post zspert Posted December 24, 2022 Popular Post Share #2060 Posted December 24, 2022 Did someone say V-3 kit? Part2 A little color to what may be for some a very boring tale. As I mentioned - the Datsun dealer that was employing me circa 1972-1976 was in the heart of Bethesda, MD on a very busy main road. Bethesda, home of the National Institute of Health, and my birth place, The Bethesda Naval Hospital, is just outside DC. The dealership had been a Dodge franchise in its past life. The showroom could accommodate 5 cars and the service department had 10 bays and room for a a modest parts department. The chassis dyno and a flat stall were in a dedicated building adjacent to the main shop. For an early 20s hot shot mechanic like me and my mates the area had a very positive vibe. There were lots of excellent places for lunch well within walking distance. There were 2 high end stereo stores - remember them - only a couple of blocks away. AND, the streets were populated with lots and lots of attractive well dressed women! Think the Shelby Venice shop in "Ford Vs Ferrari" but with suits and dresses instead of bikinis. Final chapter to follow. 5 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=172#findComment-648610 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The seller paid about $8,000 for 10,000 miles and a few years of fun. Not terrible, but not an investment either. In an ideal world, fun and profit would combine. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=172#findComment-648771 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted December 30, 2022 Share #2062 Posted December 30, 2022 The used car market is under incredible downward pressure right now. The classic market is going to be affected by this too.

bluez Posted December 31, 2022 Share #2064 Posted December 31, 2022 Early Z on BAT. Credit to seller for showing the flaws.
