Has anyone got any of the above in the shape of a project car? The more rough the better as it has to be cheap! In the uk ideally but would travel for the right car. Looking to spend no more than £4000
thanks
Mike

Not an S30 but I have a 280zx (2 seater, not a 2+2) with a janspeed wide body kit and turbo engine. Deffo a project, all complete, cool license plate but in need of resto. If it sounds like something you'd be interested in then drop me a message.
It was a impulse purchase for me but has sat and not moved since I bought it in December... in fact I've only looked at it twice briefly! SIN!!!

I have a '78 260z 2+2 that Bruce aka MysteryMachine picked up for me back in November 2009 iirc with full MOT and tax in the UK as it was being used as a daily driver by the owner. About a month after my return to Ireland, it picked up a misfire which I was never able to solve (not that I tried that hard) so I stuck it in the shed. I then emigrated late 2010 so effectively it's been in dry storage since then, only being removed recently to free up some space to work. Body is decent, needs a small bit of work and ideally a respray but with a bit of polish it's presentable. Interior isn't the best. Prior to the misfire, it ran beautifully and I drove it home from the UK without any issues. Gearbox was a little sticky into third if you hammered it but overall it was a lovely car to drive. Suspension and brakes were bang on the money. Currently not running but I reckon someone who knows their way around them would have it going in no time. Here's a photo from the ferry nearly 6 years ago!  Please note it's not looking like that currently! Currently registered on ZV plates with a 4 digit number iirc, and being pre-80 will not require an NCT. Car is completely standard, no modifications. There is a small history folder with it but not hugely comprehensive. The only reason that I'm thinking of selling it is that I really don't think I'll get around to it as I've got a '74 Merc to recommission this summer and a '97 Mini to restore over the next couple of years, as well as my daily and race car to keep me busy. Car would definitely come under budget. |

Looks nice, out of interest how much are the 260z's worth?
