1972 Datsun 240Z Coupe

Classic Datsun

1972 Datsun 240Z Coupe; S/N HLS3088557; Orange/Black vinyl; Visually maintained, largely original, 3+ condition; Hammered Sold at $6,250 plus commission of 10.00%; Final Price $6,875 -- Slotted alloy American Racing wheels, Ohtsu blackwall tires, cassette stereo, automatic. Good clearcoat repaint but flawed on cowl. Good chrome and interior. Underbody re-undercoated. An attractive cosmetic redo and a good driver. No Reserve. This 240Z was reported sold at B-J's Orange County sale a year ago for $14,300. It would take a lot of driving to make a dent in the seller's loss, but the odometer shows only 24 more miles now than it did then. Ouch. The 240Z is an important milestone which collectors haven't caught up with yet.
