1973 Datsun 240z 4-speed - very nice classic early Z!

1973 Datsun Z-Series

Datsun Z-Series. Timeless styling and a really nice example of an early Z with an absolutely stunning color combo! Runs good and doesn’t smoke or leak. I am the 3rd owner. Non-smoking adult owned. Previous owner repainted the car what I would call British racing green, or Hunter green and still looks wet! During the repaint, the windshield, as well as the rubber around it was replaced. The previous owner had repaired the only rust spot, which was behind the passenger seat. A new plate was installed and the old one removed. When I got it, I found a couple of pinholes under the spare, so I had those repaired, and had a rubberized undercoating installed from front to back, covering the entire interior.
All panel lines are straight. Car has been in a dry climate most, if not all of its life. Numbers matching engine, stamped on the block and is shown in the photos. Interior is in very good condition. Only flaws are the chrome door trim, a 1-2” slit in the headliner, and very slight wear on the driver’s seat bolster. AC variable-speed fan functions as it should but will need freon. Electric antenna goes up when radio turned on. Right after I got the car I upgraded the sound system with a new “Kicker” stereo and speakers. The new speakers were installed behind the seats. Seats (redone by 2nd owner) and carpet (replaced by me) are exceptional. Dash is flawless. New Interstate battery. I have all records since I acquired her in November of 2016.
I have the original hubcaps and wheels, and the spare tire tool kit with the bag. Spare tire mounted on the wheel are there and secured with the hold down bolt. Pressboard cover is perfect. Tires have plenty of tread. All badges and emblems attached and are in great shape. Everything works as it should except the clock. I run the car weekly - not a trailer queen. I have taken her to cruise nights in Palm Desert and it gets as much, if not more attention than the European exotics that are always lined up (probably due to the rarity). These 1st gen. Z’s will always be highly sought after - don’t miss out on the opportunity to add one to your collection. Values likely to continue upward. Personal inspections are always welcome. Questions are welcome. The car is ready for cruise nights and amateur shows. It is not perfect but the price reflects that. If you want perfection be prepared to pay substantially more. Serious buyers only please.
Health forces this sale, and if not for that I would never dream of letting her go! Bought my 1st Z in 1975 and still have it. Been a Z person since I could drive! Thanks for looking.
