Richard,
Your summary is 100% correct, the 240Z and then 260 2 seaters are the only
ones that are collectible.
Cheers

IMHO, 240Z is the only real "investment grade" car in the bunch - IE likely
toAPPRECIATE in value. My second choice would be a 2 seater 260Z because I
liked the subtle body changes.
Try to find a car that has original faded paint and what you see is what you
get. Then you know nothing is covered over. Rust around the fuel filler
cover seems common.
I think just such a 240Z was advertised in the Melbourne Trading Post this
week. Just under $3000 if my memory is good. Tempting.
