As mentioned in another thread

Where does this sit in the world? Is it a sam? is it a 69? Is it a 73? who did the work swapping the ID's around?

Where does it sit value wise?

Ah, the olden days. When Japan was a million miles away and you had to go on what you had. When everyone knew that Datsun lost it when they sold out to Nissan.

Right, to head this one off - the Z Club does not support the illegal practice of swapping VINs on Zeds (since no heritage bodyshells are available) and any posts advocating or justifying such a practice will be deleted.

that’s the perfect and only stance to take. It’s important that they’re discussed in the open though

It's all a bit 2020 knowledge against 1970's realities (UK) though.

In 2012, after the car’s successful completion of the 16,000 kms “La Gira Andina” rally in South America, it was substantially rebuilt again, by Duncan Pearcey.

A bit of Googling .... entry list and a photo from said event



Is that rhd?

Whoops missed the RHD bit,Go on...... what is your point.

 

[Pete]

Go on......

You do realise that no one wanted a 240 or a 260 in the UK and that that the sales were built on 100A's and 120Y's.

Just reading the advert and looking at the pictures IMO it's overpriced. To qualify that I'd have to see it in the flesh.

 

[Pete]

Just reading the advert and looking at the pictures it's not a £70k car.

My blue 240Z is a far better car.

It's not about the 'car' though.

I don’t think it’s a genuine samuri ....

 

[Pete]

I don’t think it’s a genuine samuri ....

I can categorically state that I would have never bought my 240Z if I had known this sort of stuff was going on. In order to avoid this sort of shit happening to me in future I will never do anything ever again.

Not really, even in 1970 you'd know whats wrong.......

Given its identity crisis, its worth can only be component resale value?

Nope.

Is there a legal practice ?

I'm all for high values when justified, seller states quite clearly it's not a Samuri but I'm not a fan of the interior and cream-bun appearance.

Why isn't it a £70k car - maybe others are advertised too cheaply ?

Maybe peoples' ideas here of values is too pessimistic ?

Let us question ourselves before others.........
