Descrição
This lot will be auctioned via Classic Car Auctions, The Practical Classics Classic Car and Restoration Show Sale 2024 on Saturday the 23rd of March - Sunday the 24th of March, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT.
The 240K-GT was top of the fifth generation (C210) Skyline range from 1978 to 1981
Powered by a 2. 4-litre straight-six generating 140bhp and 130lb/ ft and offering 116mph and 0-60 in 13 seconds
Very few made it as far as the UK and this example is believed to be one of ten remaining here
The subject of a minor restoration some 20 years ago including OEM front wings and sills, door skins, some suspension works, a clutch and a new exhaust
The car was originally green and was changed to Subaru Rally Blue at the time of the restoration. The wheels were refurbished at the same time along with certain engine components being matched to the exterior colour
The tried and tested 2. 4 straight-six was refreshed and is still strong today
Supplied with a good history file which includes old MOTs, two sets of keys and an Owners Manual
With the prices of 240Zs reaching £30, 000-plus, this retro Skyline makes perfect sense as an entry-level, alternative Japanese GT
