1974 Datsun Early 260Z-Solid Original Long Time Sitting Arizona Z-Great Project-
1974 Datsun Z-Series Description
This is a longtime sitting early small bumper 1974 Datsun 260Z. Started life in the California high desert near Palmdal, then over to Northern Arizona.So always a dry climate Z. This has been off the road for decades. Previous owner was starting to try and get it back on the road. New Hancook radials, redid he seats in cloth, rebuilt the flat top carbs.But never got it up and running again. So before I start on it, I am going to sell it like that. It will need fluids changed,fuel system cleaned, tune up,belts, hoses and about everything done. The engine turns over easily.But beyond that, I have no clue. It is a fairly low mile Z with 128,000 miles on it. This is an AC car with compressor off and loose in the car.Looks like ths Z has been repainted once sometime long ago the original color. The paint has burnt off the roof down to bare metal and some other places also.While not totally rustfree, it is not bad Some rust is starting to show in the lower panels, doglegs and floors toward the rear. Think water sat in the car from being stored outside. But most people would call this rustfree. It is not. You can find rust areas. The tailgate ledge is rustfree, the inner front wheelwell arches are clean, as are the rockers..Missing drivers door inside panel.All in al, a very nice solid original body to work with.Pretty much unplayed with over the years.Aftermarket radio.Nice Western Turbine mags,.Early 240Z s are going crazy and getting harder to buy. Early small bumper 74 260Z are the next best thing.For a lot less. Until they start going crazy money next.Original straight Z bodies are getting harder to find This will be a great base to build a Z your way.. Clean straight title.I travel around mostly the West Coast and might be able to get it to you or close for reasonable money. I can arrange shipping to Long Beach California shippers for export for $300 no problem. Datsun Zs are getting harder and harder to get in any shape these days. .This Z is listed for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction and sell it locally.
