1972 Datsun 240z Project

Posted on November 15, 2018 - Uncategorized

 1972 Datsun 240z w/ 5k on the ODO.
Was sitting inside of a garage for 2 years, but started with a fuel pump replacement. Runs and drives but will need work.
Original color code 918. Numbers matching engine. Transmission upgraded to a 5 speed. Very solid chassis underneath no issues. Only a few bubbles on the driver side rockers (front and rear).
Will need a new hood, and some fiberglass work on the light lenses. Nothing serious.
Spare wheel well perfect, and solid battery tray as well. Hood latch broke while I was taking the photos… will upload some engine bay photos when I pop it open.

$6,500 USD
1976 Mercedes Benz 450SL w/ 285k in Rare Silver Green (861H).
Drives really well. The suspension, brakes are tight. Just replaced all running belts. The steering box has either been rebuilt, or is new. Its perfect. The odometer works. Surprising amount of power. Rebuilt transmission, and torque convertor for a little over $2,500. Front and rear brake rotors, calipers, pads, master cylinder replaced around the same time. Receipt for around $1400.00. New Windshield. Fancy $600 stereo.
Presents itself really well. The paint job is clean, and shines well. Good chrome trim, decent rubbers, and bumpers ends.
The undercarriage is very clean apart from the spare wheel well, and passenger battery pocket. Fixed well. No signs of any major collisions.
Nice, complementary interior color. Clean, tidy.
Soft top is said to be a bit dry.
Clean Engine Bay.
Clean Title, Spare Wheel, Jack, misc. maintenance paperwork.
