Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Nardi fat woodrim steering wheel, aftermarket alloy wheels, padded rollbar.

No hubcaps on the wheels, windshield washer nozzles missing. Quick old repaint with some overspray and masking holidays. Good chrome and upholstery. Clean and orderly unrestored engine compartment. Only partially done and not encouraging.

Market commentary

Described as an 'interim' Fairlady with 1600 engine and narrow body, this is a test of how accepting collectors are of early Japanese sports cars. It brought nothing here but has some potential either as a track day car (in which configuration it appears here) or as a completed restoration. Is it worth $50K done and pristine? This may be the test case.
