1973 Datsun 240z Coupe

Good price of $22,000 USD, The origional Z cars are seeing value increases across all models. Recently mechanically restored the motor has very low miles on it. This particular car has only minor dings and damage to the interior and exterior at the time of selling.

The seller had the following comments (late 2016)

Highlights Include:

This Z runs and drives superbly - nothing to be done - just get in and drive!

**Complete Engine rebuild - only 1,800 miles since rebuild

**5-speed transmission swap

**New Rubber Bushings and suspension springs

**Only 2 owners (including myself) since 1973

**Comprehensive receipts in a binder**

Mechanically this car is 9 out of 10

Original engine completely rebuilt 1,800 miles ago - I have receipts to verify.

Flat-top carburetors - rebuilt & tuned - runs like new from the factory.

Newly rebuilt 5-speed transmission was swapped in and shifts like butter - I have receipts to verify.

Car also comes with original 4-speed transmission.

New brake shoes

New Battery

Original interior with no rips or tears. Interior is 8 out of 10

Center console is PERFECT - I sourced a rare NOS unit that is correct for this year

Original radio works perfectly and even the power antenna works as it should

Carpets are original and in excellent condition

Original Headliner is flawless as are the original visors

Original interior vinyl is in excellent condition

Exterior of the car presents beautifully with the original color. Exterior is 7 out of 10

Re-sprayed twice in it's life, using factory Brown Metallic Code 114

Chrome and emblems are complete and original with nice patina

Original hub caps were refinished and look excellent
