I saw Mike Brewer of Wheeler Dealer fames post on facebook several months ago that they were going to be doing a 240Z soon.  Apparently they are working on several cars in the US this season, and it looks like this 240z is one of them.

That's a good looking car.  The first 240 I've seen with 280 hubcaps.

As of Tuesday morning, Ebay shows the car as sold. Quick turn around, I assume Edd China's reputation had something to do with that.

A good friend of mine bought the car..........it looks great in the ad......we'll see.

Is it coming to the East Coast?

 

Chuck

Absolutely........It'll probably get a total restoration too. He's been looking for a lemon green car for awhile. Rust free is what he was looking for.

Am I seeing that right? Thefirst photo looks lokes its lime green, not 112 yellow. Looking forward to seeing the episode.

112 yellow is the so called lime green.

Latest info on the WD facebook page shows the 240Z episode should air on April 27th.

Cool......Lets "get Crackin'"!

So is it a "Crackin Motor"?  I saw a Facebook video with Mike talking about his California workshop.  I guess this car was done by Ed in this shop.

My company provided most of the parts for this build.
