Crackity crack crack crack. Fear the tinworm. Odd, though, that the wheelcover on the right front is off a 77 or 78...

There's a reason why the 2+2's inelegantly extended chassis isn't very popular with Datsun/Nissan enthusiasts, you know.
I second Slave2anMG's comment, but if you could haggle it down a bit it might be worth it as scrap.

I've always thought the 2+2s looked ungainly, but for some reason that actually looks great. The slightly different rear treatment jsut seems to work.

It's only worth it for the body panels if you already have a 2+2 260z. Otherwise, it's far beyond restoration and it's rarity isn't worth much. I doubt its rust-free (that's a huge problem in Chicago) so if it doesn't run, can't be restored, isn't rust free, and isn't a desirable model, it's only worth parts or scraps.
EDIT: Also, no Z is 'rare in the US'. Every year sold tons of them, and 10x more in the US than anywhere else. The only ones that are 'rare' in the US came after the S30 (10th Anniversary "Black Gold", Shiro Special, etc.) even though the 260z was made in less numbers than the 240z (though not as low as the first series 240z) it's definitely not considered more collectible or rare.
