it's a 280z black pearl edition.

The owner described it as far as I can see as accurate?

looks like a 240 to me ??? but what do I know ..

[Gav240z]

The fact that it's black and as the owner states on the black pearl was the first Z to be officially black.

The FI set up is another give away the 280z's had the first FI systems.

The big chunkie bumpers are also a 280z item.

:classic:

you can clearly see the mounting locations for the turn signals in the grill. clear giveaway there! Theres also the rear finisher that flows the rear panel into the rear bumper, and the door panels are specific to a later Z car.

ok ..thanks ..what do you think of the car? I would need to ship it right up to the US/Canada border in WA ..cost abot ($600) is it worth it ..is this model worth more than any other boring old 280 I can find?

Thanks again

hate to buy sight unseen... do u know anyone in arizona that can take a look at the car for u ? .. wondering what as rustfree as possible means... if I lived closer I'd be interested in it... here is a sight with more on the black pearl 280... http://www.zhome.com/History/BlackP.htm

Could be a Clone. I've heard that there is some "old Lady" around the Tampa Bay area that has a Black Pearl with only 16 miles on it.

Sure would like to see that.

Why does he have a picture of a blue one in there?

Seems kinda funny.

I email him to ask what his reserve is - we'll see what he says.

The seller emailed me back right away ---- His reserve is $1,500

soungs like a good / fair price to me -

The picture of the blue one is a pic of the hood that you get with the car. I beleive he said the hood was tossed however he is throwing the hood from the blue in with the deal.

Definately not a 240Z. The radiator support panel is post '75 (it has the drop down lower support & the larger ducting hole for the EFI intake).
