1971 Series 1 Datsun 240Z Very dry California car

1971 Datsun Z-Series

Series One! This car is a super desirable first year car. It was built in 9/70, but is titled (and was probably sold as) a 1971. It's car number 10161, and has most design features of the early cars. Its a very nice car.

Selling points:

• Very dry car. Very little rust. There are a few tiny bubbles on the doglegs (there are multiple hi-res photos in the gallery at the link above)
• Straight without signs of collision
• Nice bumpers and chrome trim
• Solid floor boards
• Dealer option mag wheels
• Runs and drives
  
• Everything works, including the power antenna
• New fuel pump
• Flushed fuel system
  
• New water pump
• Aluminum radiator
• New drive shafts x3
• Lenses are clear and nice
• All glass is good
• Bay Area provenance
• Never undercoated, so you can clearly see how rust free it is
• Strong 2.8l engine, doesn't smoke or make noise
• Eibach springs
  
• Newer brake hoses
• Super clean spare tire well
  

Negatives:

• The paint is old lacquer and shows some age and stains (see pics)
• Weatherstripping around doors is dry and falling apart
• Transmission makes a whining noise in first gear (but works fine)
• Could use tuning. The car sat for about 2.5 years
• Leaks a few drops of oil from the engine - not rear main seal
  
• The body shows a little wavy here and there if you look for it
• The interior was tan, but previous owner changed the door cards and seats and dyed the rest black. You can see a little tan here and there (see pictures)
  
• Non-original steering wheel, which is nice, but I prefer OE stuff
• Front fenders have been rolled under at the front bottom (there are pics)
• Non-original stereo (which works just fine)

I am happy to work with shippers to get the car to you. Cash is definitely preferred, but I will also accept a direct bank transfer. The car will not be released until I have the payment in full. Salt Lake City is the current location of the car, which is well located for easy shipping, right on both I-80 and I-15.
Feel free to ask any follow-up questions or request additional photos. Inspections in person are encouraged as well. It's a very nice example of a series 1 car, which can be enjoyed as is, or a fantastic base for a full restoration.
