1972 Datsun 240Z Sportscar Grey RWD Manual
1972 Datsun 240Z
Vehicle DetailsAlmost a barn find. This car is part of an Estate liquidation. My father in law purchased this car Oct. 30, 1979 and enjoyed it for many years. Around 1988 I replaced the original motor with a low mile, high compression (& oil pressure) 280Z motor. A complete clutch assembly was installed, the original 4 speed trans was rebuilt at a local shop, the differential was rebuilt by another local shop, all new u-joints were installed, new tires were installed on vintage wheels (the tires are now ancient). The car was also repainted locally in 1989 to the current gray color. Since then the car might have seen 5000 miles of use and last saw the road in 1997. Even though it was parked for 26 years the registration was kept current It is a great car that has not seen the daylight until today when I had it towed to my house 20 miles away. This car is ready for a nice clean restoration. Some drivers door work was started and the window is pretty much stuck in place due to pieces stuck in the window track from window channel moulding deterioration.There is one slightly visible spot of commonly found surface rust at the opening where the decklid latches, very minor. The paint has knicks and scratches from being manivered around while sitting in the garage.
