1973 240z 5 Speed Restored Very Clean In and Out

Are you in the market for a restored 240z. 5 speed manual transmission. rebuilt engine. exterior totally restored. original interior and original purchased order from Garden Grove Datsun. This Z has a strong history with many good qualities and will be good to you for many years. I purchased the vehicle from the first owners in Costa Mesa. California. They provided me with the original purchase order form and other paperwork. They really cared for the Z only taking her to shops and dealer services. no short cuts. I took this awesome project on because it was a solid Z.   The exterior was all redone with a 2 stage paint finish all new Nissan parts from Motorsport in Orange CA. The interior is all original to the Z and refreshed with lots of new parts from Nissan. Absolutely no rust anywhere inside. outside or under the vehicle guaranteed.  Z is always garaged and only driven a couple of times a year on nice days never seen rain or snow. She is ready for a new home and a new adventure. Reason for selling remolding home. Z re-listed buyer claims he bid incorrectly.
