Risky in that it is hard to tell the true condition the car is in without being able to see for yourself or know the seller.
What worries me a little is the fact that he states that the engine is original but there are a few things that need further investigation. As far as I am aware the early Zs have a different design of valve cover, they should read "NISSAN 2400 OHC" and not "Nissan OHC". I would also expect the fan to have metal fins not plastic ones.
I would clarify these points before bidding.

Got at reply & some picture from the guy - will post them up for folks interested,
Dean,
I have had a quick look at it & would like to add the following......
Still running on factory fitted L24 with original carbs air filter etc etc
NEVER been in a bender - all factory fitted panels
Allways maintained well
Interior roof lining is perfect
Sun visors are perfect
Vinyl interior lining is ok
Car has later modern radio, the dash has not been chopped during the install
Original steering wheel & gear knob
Car starts & runs fine every time
Car is registered & insured for $10,000
Tyres are good
Suspension has lovells springs & aftermarket shocks, not sure of brand
Car steers & handles & drives very very well for age
Exhaust is good
Car is not rust free,
I have spied some rust in the hatch & the hatch jam area & in door jam area
on the drivers side (pic), slight rust in fire wall near battery & in
chassis rail (only a few inches square & ahead of all mechanical bits), rear
hatch floor around passenger side strut turret, floors are solid,....All
very repairable with off the shelf replacement patches....This car is
unmolested & had been driven sparingly for ten years.....Comes with original
seats in original trim, has new carpet kit with other miscellaneous parts as
well. These pics show the absolute worst rust spots in the car....
This is a good unmolested early model Z, (HS300060) sure it may need some
work to restore but I challenge you to find an early one like
this!!!
