Z's on BAT and other places collection
Here's a pretty nice modified early 240Z. Always interesting to see how modified cars do against the restored cars. Sometimes the modifieds get surprising money. I don't know how a person can post on something like BaT though without actually looking at past listings to see what bidders want to see. No driving video. Maybe the tires rub. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1971-datsun-240z-341/

Naah. It's just about honest disclosure. That's all. As usual, you've twisted something simple in to a mass of convoluted irrationality. To what end, who knows. Again, sorry DC. I imagine that you can see how these things start. It's not a pissing battle. It's just one guy who feels like he can wizz wherever he wants to.

A buyer mght assume that it came "out of the factory" in red. If "out of the factory" is meaningless then your point is valid. Changing the sticker removes a significant piece of provenance. If provenance is unimportant then your point is valid. Why not leave the green color code sticker? If provenance is unimportant then changing anything on the car is "okay". Replica body panels, paint, engine (just grind and re"stamp" the numbers on the engine or have alternate ID plates created), etc. Originality doesn't matter. Just have alternates created of all of the things that collectors usually inspect for originality. Create an alternative reality Z car. Sorry D.C.

Didn't mean to contradict you directly. There might have been something in the fuel that was left behind as a solid. Crystalline and solid are two separate things in the materials world. A solid can be crystalline but it doesn't have to be. Who knows, it might have been residual fuel stabilizer, left behind when the gasoline evaporated. Most of them are a witch's brew of chemicals designed to save the metals and the fuel. I took some chemistry courses! 🤢 https://www.lucasoil.com/pdf/SDS_Lucas-Fuel-Stabilizer.pdf https://defender.com/assets/pdf/sta-bil/safety_data_sheet_302110.pdf

Can you replace headlights without taking of headlight bucket?
Hey! If you remove the screws that indicator light can be removed. Unless the PO glued it on. I get nervous just looking at that picture.

The Project Farm guy just put out a video about fuel stabilizers. Very interesting. (Let's see if it attracts any bots.) TLDW - Sta-bil was the best.- Fuel Pump Hammer Smack
Gasoline doesn't crystallize. I'd drain some fuel in to a clear container and get a better look at it. Not "clear" what you mean by fouling.- 1982 Datsun 280ZX turbo in South Portland PicknPull
Looks like it still has an engine. Says it's a turbo. Row521982 Datsun 280ZX at PICK-n-PULL Portland South JN1CZ04S1CX623964- Z's on BAT and other places collection
