You are bidding on a rare, 1970 Datsun 240Z. - Manufacture date is June 1970. - Has G-nose conversion complete with the associated headlight covers, Japanese fender flares, badges, and bullet mirrors. - I have been the sole owner since 2001. In 2003 a truck backed into it and I replaced the hood, radiator, and headlights. Title is clear. - Many mechanical upgrades over the years at the Tidewater Z shop in Virginia. - In 2003 I had the paint stripped and color changed to silver. - The original color was green, which is still visible in the back compartment. - The discoloration that can be seen in the back compartment is old adhesive and peeling paint, it is not rust. - Has the rear hatch vents (rare, only on the earliest models) instead of the pillar vents - Has the vertical defroster elements on the back hatch (rare, only on the earliest models) - Has the original power antenna which still works (can be raised or lowered with the push of a button) - I have replaced a number of things over the years including the wheels (from motorsport), rear view mirror, the dash, as well as other details too numerous to list. - The motor is a 2.8 liter from a 1978 280 Z - Transmission is a 5 speed manual (not the original) - I have a carpet kit (black) which I have not installed and will supply to the winning bidder - It runs well, starts on first crank, but it also needs rings or a rebuild as it uses some oil. - Odometer reads 95,269. As I recall, the mileage read about 70,000 when I purchased it in 2001. - So many things have been added and replaced over the years that the odometer reading is not representative of the condition of the car. Note to purists. I have not attempted to keep it stock, which I realize is more popular. Floorboards and fenders are clean. Car was undercoated in 2003 when painted silver. Please email with any questions, comments, or requests for photos. I am going to add a video of it running and place it on Youtube tomorrow. I have placed two videos of the Z running, on Youtube. Ebay does not allow me to place the link. So go to Youtube and look up username: insight 1318 Two vids there; one of the Z starting, and a second with a short drive.
