A&Q about 350Z
Q:
...so while I'd rather be playing with a car after work, I was unlucky to have
found myself behind the wash machine to see if it's really dead....(kept popping fuse so timer might be gone even tho' it would fill, it wouldn't go to wash cycle...crap!) Anyway, as I pulled it out from wall, I picked up a Matchbox...dusty, dirty etc and low and behold....there was a Datsun in the house! ...a 1982 280ZX Turbo in Black with Red/Yellow decals! Glass
looks good and doors open on each side and with wheels...cool I tho't
but I don't think it'll buy me a new washer...some things get mysteriously
preserved.

Also one ebay ad has nine-200sx's in it, all orange, must've been a fan...

Yeah, some of those matchbox cars end up being worth a lot of money. I'd like to have a Z and a ZX one to match my cars.
