I am thinking about buying a 72 Datsun 240Z. It is a rust free SoCal car that is presently not running. Car seems to be complete including a spare engine. Interior seems alright from pictures. Guy tried to restore it years ago but didn't have any idea of what he was doing, hired a mechanic that got it running and then it sat for years. Now he wants to get rid of it. I'm going to look at it in person in a few weeks.
Anyone ever had one, worked on one or restored one? They seem pretty simple to work on and parts don't look that hard to get. The one draw back is it's an auto transmission but seems pretty simple to swap that out. Also what do you think it's worth?
I will post pictures when I get them but I think it might be a situation where I either buy it on the spot and haul it home or pass on it so I'm looking for any advise
Thanks
Steve
