Mileage: 100860

VIN: HLS30-26913

Simply stated: this 240Z is a virtually original, 2-owner car (I am second owner), with a complete known history, original manual, service book, keys, purchase invoice (5/17/71), and the business card of the salesman at Escondido Datsun – Tall Paul! Original slotted mags, bumper guards and 8-Track player installed by dealer. A few tapes were in the glovebox. Complete jack kit and wheel chocks.

This car eventually made its way to San Jose, where the daughter of the original owner used it as her daily driver, ultimately parking in her garage for many years. I brought it back to SoCal in late 2022.

Recent work includes new battery, brake master cyl, starter, clutch master/slave, carbs rebuilt, restored steering wheel, NOS shift knob, weatherstrips replaced on doors, hatch, hood, various other bits replaced. Sale includes full hose kit, remaining full rubber kit, engine decals, car cover, other parts.

I intended to sympathetically restore this time-capsule, preserving the patina, but don’t have the bandwidth and want to shift it to a new caretaker that will fly this mission!

Very Original; One Owner; Manual Transmission - NA- 2+2

The seller is technically the second owner, but the original owner was his family (his uncle's father-in-law in Torrance).  Comes with the original purchase paperwork from 1984.  It has been garaged or covered its entire life.  It has less than 100K original miles (about 98K), and runs well and has been serviced recently, including the A/C has been refurbished and the interior has been partially updated (new custom upholstery on the seats and carpet).  

It has a few of the expected flaws for a vehicle of this age - a minor leak (likely power steering), and the electronic dash display occasionally flickers on/off (one of the solder points in the module box under the dash is the likely culprit, as going over a hard bump tends to affect it).  Seller has also replaced some of the components with OEM parts (A/C module, clock, etc.), and has receipts for all of the parts and/or work done. 

Seller periodically drives it around town (especially during nice weather with the T-tops off), but doesn't drive it as much as he should, so it's time to pass it on.  Seller has the clean title in hand, and it has passed the smog test at the Manhattan Beach Auto Chek each time it's been due (most recently last August 2023).
