1972 Datsun 240Z

VIN # HLS30-64733
Engine # L24-081097

   Up for sale is a beautiful Datsun 240Z.  This Z was cosmetically restored in 2007 and has seen less than 4000 miles since.  At the same time, all of the mechanics of the car were completely gone through and the car runs great. At the time of the overhaul, some subtle cosmetic and performance modifications where made that really enhance the appearance and drivability of this classic Datsun. I do have all of the pieces to return the car to stock, if desired.  This Z has had thousands of dollars invested into it and it really shows!  The 240Z was an important part of automotive history and is a must have for any collector.  There are very few left in original, unmolested form.  This car drives great and turns heads everywhere you go. This car could easily be driven on a daily basis. This is a great collectible classic that is surely to appreciate in value over the next several years.  It is in excellent condition and will surely make its new owner happy.

This 240Z is finished in Datsun "904" White and looks stunning.  The Z was painted when the car was restored and has seen about 4000 miles since. The car was completely taken apart and properly painted inside and out.  This was a high dollar paint job and it really shows. After the car was painted, a MSA Type 1 air dam was added to give a sportier appearance.  I do have all of the pieces to return the front end to stock.  When the car was reassembled, all new weather stripping and rubber seals were installed. All of the panel gaps line up as they should. The glass is in great shape with no pitting or cracks.  All of the chrome and bright work were done at the same time.  A brand new set of Kumho tires were just installed.  Overall, the exterior of this Datsun is in excellent condition.

The beautiful black interior was done during the restoration and shows like new.  The seats are very supportive and feel great to sit in. The drivers seat does show a very minor amount of wear on the bolster as shown in the pictures.  The carpet is in excellent condition with very little if any signs of wear. There is a set of floor mats on top of the carpets.  The headliner, interior plastics, and door panels show little to no wear at all. The dashboard does have a cap on it that fits very well and it very hard to tell it is even on the dash.  The interior is completed with a factory wood steering wheel and shift knob that look beautiful and feel great in your hands.  The factory radio is still in the dash.  A modern AM/FM MP3 radio was added in the glove box and works as it should.  The dashboard features all LED lighting that makes the gauges easy to see with all gauges working.  The windows operate as they should.  The interior of this car is in superb condition and is a great place to spend the weekend driving up your favorite twisty roads!

Mechanically the car is as good as it looks.  The numbers matching engine was completely gone through at the time of restoration.  Many subtle performance modifications were made that greatly enhance the driving experience of the Z. The alternator was upgraded to a stronger 105amp unit along with a Pertronix electronic ignition.  A Clifford manifold and Holley 4bbl carb were added.  I do have the original manifold and carb set up.  The motor was resealed and completely tuned up.  The Datsun's inline 6 engine has plenty of power to accelerate this light weight car with ease. The engine is mated to a 4speed transmission that shifts great through all the gears.  The suspension was gone through with the struts replaced. This is a great running and driving car that never skips a beat. The steering is nice and tight. The brakes feel great and the car stops with ease.  Overall, this car is mechanically sound and ready to be driven.

The Datsun is an excellent weekend toy or daily driver. This is a great chance to own a very nice 240Z at a reasonable price before they sky rocket like early Japanese Sports cars are starting to!  This car is in excellent condition both inside and out and is located in sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.
