1986 Nissan 300ZX - No reserve


Another stalled project.

I've owned a fair number of Z cars, and love the 86 for its unique design.

This car was bought a year or two ago with the intention of a restoration, She is gold in color, the interior is beige. She has T Tops and power everything.

The dashboard works fine. The radio also works. Not sure on the A/C

She'll need paint, some dent repair, interior work (or bucket seat replacement). However, they are collectible, of course, and would make a great project.

Tires are fine, brakes work fine. She was a running, driving car before last winter. We tuned her up with new plugs, etc and now she is blowing white smoke. Might be a head gasket or something else unrelated. When she runs, she runs roughly.

T tops are in good shape.


Transmission shifted fine, and ran very smoothly, before the winter.

We added a brand new battery (receipt included) so that she could be started and moved. The security system in these cars are problematic and allow you to start the car sometimes and other times, not. Fussing with the driver's side door lock seems to be the solution.


This is a no reserve auction and being sold as is, where is, with no warranties implied or expressed. If you have less than 10 positive feedback score, please email me first or I'll remove the bid. I've had too many "purchases" that never were completed.


I respond to all emails. It's the best way to communicate as I have listed a few cars that are on Ebay now.


Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. Must be picked up soon after the auction is over. I can't hold the car for long.

Deposit via paypal accepted. Wire transfer, cash or paypal for the balance - is fine. Deposit within 48 hours.
