Hey all,

Has been a while since I was on here last. Had an 03 350Z Track that I sold last year. Wish I would have kept her. Still kicking myself. Got a job at a local Nissan dealership selling cars so I'm constantly forced to stare at 370Z's all day. Just got a 2012 GTR in the other day, white.

Anyway, thought I'd share my pickup with everyone. Paid a little too much for it, (long story). Has been towed for I'd say most of its life but who knows for how long. Never seen a cleaner one this old. ODO says 148k but I'm willing to bet real mileage on the motor is under 100k. Still has the tow bars on it. Idles a little high, vacuum leak?

Nice to be back. Planning on doing a full tune up next week. Timing belt has been done already.

Sounds like a cool old truck, especially if it is as clean as you say it is.

Of course you have the now-obsolete TBI setup in place, I hope all those parts are working nice. I had a high-idle problem on my 86 (z24i/TBI) that I think was caused by the thermally-controlled, high-idle thingy, which was siezed from being weathered.

Inside is clean, no cracks in dash, no tears in seats. Carpets are a little stained tho.

Image

Exterior is exceptional, only one dent on the drivers side box. Factory pop up tie downs, spray in bed liner, has buttons for a cover. Tow hooks up front, any one want to buy them? Absolutely no rust on the frame anywhere. Just put a new exhaust on. It does idle high, best way to diagnose? Fix? Plan on re-doing the tint, a full tune up, hopefully get her idling right, new speakers are here, needs a new ODO cable, spedo quit working on me. Diggin the factory rims? This truck could be on a showroom floor with a little touch up.. Just drove 18 hours to Boise and back in a day. Ran like a champ, 22mpg with the ski in the back. Not bad, kinda wish it was a 4-banger with gas going up.

Image

And my new jet ski, just for fun. Cant wait for summer. Looking for a wetsuit. Anyone have experience? Leaning toward a Farmer John suit for ease of use and versatility.

Very clean and for carpet stains get the tuff stuff carpet cleaning spray from any parts store and use a brush to rub out stains, then vaccum and let dry, did great on my carpet. I thought my 91 was clean yours is as good if not better on interior. Mine also has no tears or worn dash or anything. my old buckets were stained and i could not get them as clean as i wanted so added in leather buckets from a path finder for 50 bucks from local pull a part. Also had to find air vents from local pull a part took a while to find good ones but were cheap and makes the interior look great. VERY good find on one that old and clean.

I couldn't give up my baby, I have too much sunken into her and she's no where near where I want her to be. You on the other hand have a collectors item. Cherish that thing because that is as clean as they come while still being original. You have quite a unique and beautiful truck, please take good care of it. If ever you feel you have to sell it I want you to contact me.

I would hit kbb.com and nada.com and go from there. I'd help you place a value on it but I would be biased towards what I would want to pay for it.
