Great looking Z but I may be partial to Lemans blue I'd put the vinyl top and black stripes back on, as original. The ones I seen look great and its not a common color combo.

Only a minor thing but the leaf springs do not appear to be original. A good set of repros are about $400.

Leaf springs are replacements and I agree, they should have left the V- top with black stripes on the car.

The car had underwent somewhat of restoration .. The paint was done quite a while ago. The current owner did the interior and also found a "correct block" The motor is NOT the original but the transmission and rear are. The car presents well but the paint has issues. It was an original black stripe and v top car. There are some visible heavy prep scratches under the paint. I don't the car was ever sealed, possibly just primer. The downfall is the paint. The car and the ad both are pretty honest as far as what it is. I was merely looking for feedback to see if it was a known car or not and what good and bad things were known. The current owner has a really neat all original 70 Z with original paint .. The car sat outside for a while and shows its age. All of the black EDP coating is gone under the hood. It runs and drives like a gem though.. Neat car for sure .... Thank you guys for the interest and information
