lonetreesteve Posted November 4, 2018 Share #1 Posted November 4, 2018 Car is in rough shape, but is still restorable. Here's the link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Datsun-Z-Series/264012936024?hash=item3d7865b358:g:UCwAAOSwxZxb1lTW:rk:10:pf:0&vxp=mtr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patcon Posted November 4, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 4, 2018 What a mess! It's already $5,300 reserve not met Every panel on that car will need work. Cowl is rotten, frame rails, floors, evidently has a sunroof, so roof panel, quarters, everything. At this point you're buying data plates and a minimal amount of metal. I hope it gets saved but I can't see paying that kind of money for this car. Although if it ends up at 100k in 5-10 years I guess that changes the calculus. Still, you better have a good welder and 50#'s of MIG wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prices keep going up on these 1969 240Z production cars no matter what condition they're in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannyknot Posted November 5, 2018 Share #4 Posted November 5, 2018 Send it to the dippers and see what's left when it comes out of the tank, I wouldn't want to be the guy that has to repair that body. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Looks like the auction ended 2 days ago and did not meet the reserve with a high bid of $5,600.00. With the condition this car is in, the seller should have lowered the reserve, taken the $5,600.00 and ran! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonetreesteve Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted November 16, 2018 Looks like the car is back on eBay. Here's the link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Datsun-Z-Series/264036857874?hash=item3d79d2b812:g:UCwAAOSwxZxb1lTW:rk:9:pf:0&vxp=mtr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonetreesteve Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share #7 Posted March 28, 2019 Looks like HLS30-00456 sold a few months ago on eBay for $6,800.00. Below is the link. Try coping and pasting if the link doesn't work. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Datsun-Z-Series-/264036857874?_trksid=p2047675.m43663.l10137&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
