The unmistakable and iconic Japanese Z-Car !
These cars need little introduction.... they are without doubt one of the most popular cars to come out of Japan in the Seventies, and with the values of any surviving early Japanese cars, especially the early 240 Zs soaring ever skyward, this car is a very affordable alternative, which will also no doubt represent a very wise future investment.....
A very successful car in its day with the absolutely bullet proof running gear, and with Datsuns proven reliability the 260Z 2+2 was the car to have, and the 2+2 version offered a true four seater sports car which for the time was quite unique for the price you paid.
This survivor example has been in NZ since 1976 and has at some point in the past received a fairly thorough and extensive restoration of sorts, having had quite a bit of work carried out with photographic evidence of many hours spent, before being refinished in the stunning bright red it is presented in today.
The engine appears to have been warmed over at some point and is currently equipped with triple 40 mm Delorto side draught carbs, so performance is a lot better than it would have originally, and coupled to the five speed gearbox this example is quite a lot of fun to drive!
Cosmetically this Z-Car is starting to show it has been used and thoroughly enjoyed since being refurbished with the odd bubble and mark starting to show now, displaying a generally used appearance with a few bumps and bruises, but it is a solid and relatively complete example, which is still very presentable, and one that could either be driven as it is quite happily, or taken to the next level without too much further effort depending on what you wanted to achieve, either way you couldn't really go wrong...
The interior is presentable having also had quite a bit of work in the past with tidy seats trimmed in the original style, and with a new crash pad having been fitted at some point, is fairly complete, and quite functional, and a good base for further improvement.
Fitted with a period style set of 15 inch alloys complementing the bright red finish, this old 260 Z really looks the part, and certainly still turns a few heads!
Comes complete with the original carbs, and factory air box.
Call today for further details on this one, a very driveable classic at a very affordable entry level price, especially when compared to almost anything else from the Land of the Rising Sun that has survived from the period....
