1979 DATSUN 260Z 2 SEAT UK RHD. RARER THAN 240Z. BARN For Sale

While everyone thinks 240 when it comes to these fantastic z cars this is the rare one with 73 road legal and 76 sorn and as numbers like the 240 have climbed in recent years due to the number of imports i bet not too many are UK supplied cars. In comparison there are 243 road legal 240z, s and 138 sorn.
So what we have here is a very solid all steel UK RHD 2 seater swb 260z from 1979 with a nice single digit v plate and a very 70, s interior which goes again with little effort. Dry stored since 1978 and showing nearly 92k it did some leg in those first nine years, average now but back then 10k a year was not so average.

Having cleaned off years off dust and giving her a good looking over i can find one weld repair to o/ s floor pan and a small patch of glass in the corner of boot floor next to tub. Other than this i can, t see anywhere it needs structural welding or anywhere it has been repaired before though the edge of inner rear arches may have been. Outer arches are very good and there is no rot on or under the battery tray. may have had sills.
Bodywork wise it needs o/ s lower door repair, panel for outer with car, n/ s wing has filler to front and top centre, o/ s wing has been replaced and all good both are steel, lower rear quarter both sides behind wheels but repair panels supplied, rear lower valance a bit frilly at edge and there is a dent in n/ s door and top of o/ s wing. Screen is cracked and us and whiles its out some blisters under bottom edge need attention. both front and rear slam panels need 1 repair. Bumpers are not great.
The roof though with it, s aftermarket sunroof has suffered badly but i have a non sunroof complete cut roof from another car that you can use as much or as little as you like. it is cut across pillars.
Dash has one crack centre top.
The engine turns over on the key and both K&N and original air filters are present as is the new red v5.
Very obviously a project car but there are so many Lhd being shipped in because uk rhd 2 seaters just do not turn up very often.
May take an offer if you are standing in front of the car holding folding for a deposit. No email offers thank you.
