I bet it cost next to nothing to buy. You can't win them all.
Well - i bought around 30+ Z's from states over the years, and to be honest - this one is worst of all Even so i knew what i was getting - i wasnt expecting it to be so bad In pics it even looked OK! This was a package deal of 2x series 1 cars, and only at the port i knew there will be a problem when i got customs declaration papers telling me it was 73' car (even so both are 70')
I knew that im gonna kill it for parts worst case, but now i see that the only body parts that i can use are Hood / fenders and roof as Side sills, rear fenders are totally out from bondo
Best part - seller really told me that BOTH cars are great project cars, and that they are BOTH solid Yea right
What would be your expectation for a £3K car?4000$ Yea, 'next to nothing' 3 years ago it was 'next to nothing' days Not now mate, not now...

For £3K I wouldn't expect a lot.Not something as bad as this.

If you knew it was not great I can't see why you'd have paid 4K for it. even from exterior pics. There's lots of decent cars, well no where near this for the same money!?

Series1 car for 4k Do you have to ask more questions?
Ash tray cover alone - 700-800$
Original AM radio - another 900$
Rear diff / mustage bar / rear diff mount - easy 700$
And i can go on and on I have 12 x 240z now, all will be restored - so buying some cars already in mind with them going in pieces to get other cars survive Its not like i buy one car and complain...
I got 8K for 2x Series1 cars, 1 car is super nice, with all original stuff, almost no rust - another one is this one - so i cant complain really much, it was just to show 'new' people what you can get from states and how some people advertise cars
