This is a very complete and original (except drivetrain) car. An excellent running, stock looking sleeper. I bought the car with a L20b/280Z drivetrain mod done by several owners ago. It has NOT been restored or turned into a track day car, it has “patina” (yes, some surface rust and pitted chrome), it’s not a car show trailer queen, it’s just a cool driver. If you’re looking for a 150 picture, fresh paint/chrome/interior restored BAT Roadster, this is not your car. If you’re looking for original paint/chrome/interior car with that cool survivor vibe, and a fresh strong drivetrain so you can go drive without worrying about chips or weather, this just might be your ride.
Inop systems – tach (needs an electric conversion), ammeter (broken post), AM radio (all components there, just not working).
