Guy, your original halfshafts appear to be in really good condition. Were they exhibiting any symptoms?

If I had to guess $600-1000 depending on condition. Most of the hoods I see for sale are about $300. So I doubled that and went from there. I don't know that I've ever seen an early hood

Thanks. It's about time to post an update as it is slowly moving again.

Still beautiful though!!!!

When one of the brake circuits (front or back) fails, there is a piston in there that slides and illuminates the brake light in the speedometer

That's a shame. The last clear glass I saw discussed was in the $2k range. So the glass alone makes the car appealing to someone who has the right car needing parts. @hiyabrad It's a long way from you but it may have something you want

In here somewhere. Probably the last few pages

I get it and have started browsing for a 260 or 280z that I could run and modify, but I agree with Mike. It's only a matter of time for the 260 & 280 start appreciating in this manner.

I have pictures in my build thread of working on a 240z rack.

I am not sure it is a "complete random blip". Will be interesting to watch future high value cars. By the time I get my car done and running it will be too valuable to drive!

WOW!!! ?

Yes. That sounds great!

I was hoping to spark some interst in them for you

I don't go on Facebook but Shelley does, and she has been really successful at finding parts for sale for me. Many of which don't show up any where else. I find their marketplace hard to search and with poor results. The few times I tried a few searches, I quit in frustration. I do agree though it appears the trend is towards more use of Facebook for selling parts and cars.

I didnt think those were "240z's" I thought they were some other variety

@jdking Did you sell the 3 cars?

Oh my! That didn't take long

and I like it that way...

I figured it was his house. I didn't want to throw stones because my yard has similarities ☺️ Thats why I don't want another project

No engine, no tranny but I have lots of spares here. I could probably get a title. A little bit of a gamble but I'm sure there is $1000 in parts in it. I just don't want any more projects right now.

Lots of cars like this in the South East and South West but they tend to be really rough. However as prices climb they become more viable restoration candidates if the rust is reasonably contained. This was a $200-300 car not that long ago. Not any more...

I would agree

Looks great!

Sure! But it's more like confetti at this point

They're proud of that
