i have a 300ZX , 1988 and i do love it , it runs good , it not in as good shape as yours, i bought it used. now it's time for me to sell it , i hate to but its just time . but i need to get a passenger side T-Top for it . lightening must have hit it ,cause i went out one day and the glass was completely crystalize.
 
if any one could give me advice on how to sell it or where to find a black smoked glass T-Top , that would be great.
 
what about selling it for parts? cause no one will want to buy a car with only one t-top or 2 t-tops but in different colors and i heard they come in 10 or 12 different shades .

My cruise control was working then simply quit. Someone suggested I check the vacuum hose which I did and it appears to be working. Any other suggestions? I have some longer trips and would really like to have it in working conditions.
 
Thanks

You can check your fuse box but often with these old cruise controls it is the electronic amplifier (module). But I hope not , as it is expensive. There is also a cruise control relay, (RH side of engine compartment in the relay box, marked I think A.S.C.D) a servo (vacuum operated and also on the RH fenderwell) and the cruise control switch itself in the driver's area. All need to be looked at.

I own a 1984 300ZX - T top, less than 50,000 miles. One owner. Stored in a garage. Driven few miles each year. Can anyone tell me what is the value of my Z and is there a good place on the web to advertise it? Oh yes, just one other thing -- it was painted a year back -- Porsche Purple. I love the car and as far as I know it is in perfect condition, but since I bought it in 1984 my life has changed dramatically and it is time to let it go. It is an automatic. Has bucket seats and back seat. Thanks.

As the owner of a much higher mileage '88 2+2, I'd guess your car might fetch $3,000-$3,900 in a sale-by-owner. Sure, it's very low mileage, well maintained and original owner, all pluses, but it's also old, and this model has only modest collector interest. You might want to ask a bit more, then accept the best offer you get. Shifty, what do you think?
 
As for where to advertise it, this is clearly a Craigslist candidate. Good luck, and please let us know what happens.

I think your appraisal is dead on. I'd advertise it at $3995 and see how it goes. Miles are a plus, but probably the automatic and the color are "neutral" attractions.
