1974 Datsun Z-Series 260Z

Datsun Z-Series 260Z (1974)
for sale

Price: US $7,776.74

Description:

1974 DATSUN 260Z.
Early year model has the slightly smaller bumpers.
Odometer showing 7, XXX miles, so I am guessing it is 107, XXX. I have some documentation showing this was a California car which will explain the lack of rust on the body.
It appears to have had one repaint. They did a good job except there are three spots that did not seem to get prepped properly and are bubbling/cracking. Two are smaller than a dime and one in the center of the hood is about two inches long. Photos of those areas are included.
I added Webers, header pipe and new exhaust. Except for the underhood light, everything works on this car.
It is a good driver-quality car. The original interior shows wear with a split in the seat upholstery. The dash is crack-free. I would replace the carpet (frayed) and leave the rest as-is to keep it as original as possible.
The car has power brakes (disc front / drum rear) but does not have power steering. The air conditioning, I think, was a dealer-installed option. It does work, unlike a lot of older cars.
I am a car enthusiast and took very good care of this car while I had it. Never in the rain while I owned it and always in a climate-controlled garage.
Contact me with questions.
THIS IS A 45 YEAR OLD VEHICLE AND IS BEING SOLD AS-IS WITHOUT WARRANTY. Please note that the mileage is UNKNOWN, and Ebay does not give the option to enter MILEAGE EXEMPT, so the mileage stated in the ad is not correct.
Please look at the photos. I’ve tried to photograph as best as I can so you can see the condition. If you want more photos or have questions, please email me. I’ve sold classic bikes and cars on eBay and never had a dissatisfied customer.
I can help load the car with the shipper of your choice.
