Message I had this project going for a while but got fed up with it and got another 300zx along the way. Was hoping I could sell this one to someone very knowledgable with the car and fully restore it. I spent a lot trying to get it back to par and it requires only a little bit more to be back to par.

I thought this car would be worth keeping since the VIN is only 000168, perhaps someday it'd be worth something in the future. Here's all the work I've done to it: (All work was done last year)160,000 miles on chassis, 2,000 on motor

1) New piston rings

2) New Starter

3) New Altenator

4) New Water Pump and Timing Belt

5) New belts, seals, and gaskets

6) Replaced all fuel injectors

7) New brakes and rotors

8) New clutch

9) Rebuilt turbos

10) New A/C Compressor

And maybe a couple more..if I can think of any I'll be sure to mention them if you contact me. Now for the bad news:

-The car needs body work, person before me was totally negligent

-Temp control unit doesn't work

-driver seat is hard to adjust

-needs driveshaft replaced (I have a spare one)

-shocks are worn

-car leaks coolant and power steering fluid.
(kinda weird that it would leak coolant since i had the gaskets and seals replaced)

So as you can see although this car has a few problems I did a lot of the major PITA stuff already and I'm sure someone who is car savvy can figure all the other stuff out. I'm asking for $5500 OBO..I mean I bought the thing for $4900 and it was in way worse condition, so I'm hoping to get around $5000 for it..

email me at tvikorn@gmail.com for questions..thanks!
