Real Nice 71 On Ebay!

[Diseazd]

Anyone looking for an outstanding series 1 240Z .......now's your chance. The white Z from Chester Virginia is a "cream puff". It runs and drives like a dream with exterior and interior to match. This car needs nothing. If I didn't have 3 I'd buy it myself!

Real nice looking car, makes me want a 240.

Ha! I totally thought it was your car! If you bought that one, you would have twins--twins!

It does appear to be a sweet car, although it is a Series 2, not a Series 1. As I look at the pictures I keep comparing to my car, which coincidentally is only a couple thousand cars later than this one. So the white one is probably 6/71 build date. Mine has fewer miles, but his has nicer wheels. Mine has a touch of filler in the right rear corner, this one has filler in the left rear corner. Mine is a bit cleaner under the hood, his has nicer carpet. Etc., etc., etc.

He mentions you can buy it outside the auction for $14,950. Seems to me that is a very fair price, if it really is as nice as the pictures show.

I thought you were talking about this one.

...looks like the driver side upper seat skin was replaced too. the stiching as viewed from the rear, is different at the top. nice car at a fair price.

Nice Z. I hope he gets a good amount.

Steve- You're right about twins. If it was silver instead of white, I would have had a hard time not buying it! The build date is 11/71 so it would have the 9mm rod bolts. Carl has said many times to try to pay up for a rust free car to start with and this car is truly rust free. It scraps going into 3rd gear, but it's probably a synchro or possibly slave cylinder adjustment (anyway a used 4 spd is a snap). The onlything this car needs a detail under the hood. Steve if you bought it you would only need a Safari Gold Z (then we would be twins) I love the Lemon Green, but white is also one of my favorites! This car drives like a dream! Mark it looks like your twin. Guy

Love the 904 blue interior combo on my 71. Gotta say the one on ebay is sweet.
