Paint was stripped off in 2005 and repainted with GM Galaxy Silver Metalic and is in perfect cond. This car was not driven in the winter and always garaged and when it was outside it was covered. There is absolute no rust in this. New Indy tires in 2005 with no miles on them. This conversion cost $14K in 1980. when he did this it had 110. 00 miles and only has 124. 00 right now.

The owner is selling this car because he is getting to old and he thinks it needs to be driven more. As you can see in the pics the emblems are not on the car. they were taken off when it had the new paint and the owner liked it looking like a regular 240Z especially without the spoiler and wing. Good luck biddint and whoever buys this car will be happy. On Apr-03-15 at 08:33:10 PDT. seller added the following information:Sorry. the wheels are Campagnola wheels and also I just put a new Edelbrock Carb. 650cfm. Keep in mind that a lot of these cars after they were built were raced or just plan driven very hard. This gentleman bought this car new in 72 and drove it 110k miles and then decided to do this conversion to strengthen the motor and enjoy driving and it was not raced or driven very hard or very much. This probably the most solid Scarab 240Z that you will find or drive and since the conversion it has always been garaged. Thank you for looking and please email me if you want more docs on this car. including the Scarab build invoice plus a nice memo from D Morrow asking the owner if he was enjoying his car and several articles about Scarab Z cars in road & track. car and driver.
