No Reserve auction for this 1974 Datsun 260Z - a rust free Nebraska car that had a recent paint job in basecoat/clearcoat bright red. The paint is shiny and smooth, nd still looks wet. The car was partially disassembled including glass removed for paint, nd afterward all new weatherstrips were installed. The black interior received new 260Z embroidered leather seat covers and carpet. Underhood is the factory original 2.6 liter inline 6 engine with dual carburetors, hat were recently rebuilt. The only engine modification is a pair of free breathing K&N air filters and an exhaust header. The engine starts easily and runs reliably with strong oil pressure, nd the 4 speed shifts smoothly. The car has a set of period-correct aluminum wheels with brand new tires. The Walker exhaust system and battery are also brand new. This car is ready to be driven and enjoyed - it's not a show car, ut rather an extremely nice driver. Notice the care and attention to detail that has been given to this car! Fully restored 240Z, 60Z, nd 280Z cars are well over $20,000 (and climbing), ut this one can be purchased in a no-reserve auction. This is a three owner car with 65,506 miles (believed to be original). The AutoCheck report verifies the car lived almost its entire life in Nebraska. I could find no evidence of any rust or sheetmetal repair on this car, or underbody patch panels, lthough there is the beginning of a bubble on one wheel lip. (I believe this may have been caused by an impurity such as oil that was on that spot when it was painted, oes not look like a rust bubble - see photo). Please see the 24 detailed photos including the typical rust areas, uch as both floorpans, uarter panel dog legs, nd battery box. There are a couple very minor parking-lot-type dents on the car, ut no paint chips. The car has a nice updated CD stereo but needs power hooked up, here are no speaker holes in door or trim panels (rear speakers are in enclosures sitting in cargo hold). Car is being sold as-is, ithout any written or implied warranty. Inspections are welcome. Please contact Frank with any questions. Thanks!
