Incredible show carDatsun Z with 350 Small Block Chevy engine, Tremic 5-speed. This is the third time I’ve listed the car. The first time it ended with a flake bidder. The second it got very close to the reserve. If it doesn’t sell this time, I’m going to take it to the Mecum auction in Kissimmee in January, so don’t wait until the auction ends and try to buy it. Everything is this car is the VERY BEST. Over $45,000 in parts alone plus 3 years in the detailed, painstaking build.Early model 1974 Datsun 260 Z meticulously restored from the frame up on a rotisserie.Body: Stripped to bare metal and completely restored on a rotisserie.

Interior Features; this is really special custom interior. Retains the original Datsun look, but with contemporary materials. This is what this interior would look like if Datsun built this car today. Insulated with Fat Mat thru out; covered with two layers of fiber and foil heat and sound insulation; The seats, dash and interior panels are covered in faux leather and is all French stitched. Four point seat harnesses. Autometer Sport Comp gauges in the original locations. Custom carpet. Only 1,000 miles on this since the build. I’m losing my storage so several collectible cars and toys have to go. I bought this car finished as it is 4 years ago and have only put 350 miles on it since then. This car runs and sounds fantastic. It DOES NOT have A/C. The windows are the original hand crank. They did not offer power windows on the 1974 ZYou will not be disappointed with this car! NOTE: This build started with just a body shell, which had a rebuilt title. It has a clear Florida title marked “rebuilt"
