I agree with Carl, that is a pretty good offer for the car. I'm not sure it's worth any more than that in parts and it needs a title. Seems like a pretty good price. The market is much softer than it was a year or two ago.

How much money would EBay get out of the deal?

Pretty close to what I'm thinking about for "Lily"

It looks like $19, $49 or $79 depending on the final price and what you want in the ad

Thought it would have been alot more and that’s why he didn’t take it.

If the car was more solid I think it would have brought more but it needs a lot of metal work and that really hurts the value

Relisted on ebay with lower reserve auction ends tonight.

lol.

I think the $3770 offer was the best it's gonna do. I would probably contact that bidder and see if I could work something out...

Not Datsun but an interesting article. I believe we are seeing this in the Datsun market too. I wonder if the peak is actually over for these other marques and possibly over for Datsun too?

The market has peaked... for now.  Once we have an economy that people believe in, the prices will rise again.  Personally, I wish the Z market would crash back about 15 years.  I loved buying and selling S30's for parts.  There is no such thing as a parts car anymore.  Every seller thinks they have a future Barrett Jackson car when they really have a $500 parts car.  This holds true for every classic sports car.  When a Porsche 912 brings $45k, something is seriously wrong.  You couldn't give a 912 away 15 years ago and it should still be that way.  

Similar cars go low and high.  This one did pretty well.
