Chassis no. HLS3067615. Webers, 4-speed, Nissan polished valve covers, electronic ignition, stainless steel exhaust, Eibach springs and Tokico shocks, Enkei wheels, rear spoiler, modern headlights, wood shift knob.

Evaluation: Thoroughly restored and tastefully upgraded Z. Lovely paint other than some odd circular cracking on the roof. Clean engine bay and underbody. Great interior with restored dash and light wrinkling in the upgraded leather seats. Mild scrape on the right rear wheel. Lightly driven and very cool.

Bottom Line: This is one of the more surprisingly low results from Vegas this year. It sold for $40,700 at Westworld 2018 and the 240Z – a founding father of Japanese performance cars – has only gotten more valuable since then while this one shows minimal use from the ensuing four years. The new owner here paid 2016 money in the 2022 Z-car market, and that means a serious bargain.
