1971 Datsun 240Z (Series 1) Fairlady Z Edition
This 240 is powered by an upgraded and swapped L28E 1982 280ZX 5 Speed Engine. The L28E received flat-top pistons and a high quench head, raising the compression ratio to 8.8:1, and thus increasing the power rating from 135 PS to 145 PS. This engine has been rebuilt and it runs great.
Perfectly Stanced and Staggered with 8 Spoke ROTA wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich G-Force Tires
The Black Interior is in excellent condition considering this is a 45 year old car.
Fitted with an integrated roll cage, sway bars to keep it firm and tight on the road.
The Seats are accented nicely with Red Racing Seat belts.
The exhaust has been upgraded to 3" and tuned header have been added which gives this Z an indistinguishable sound like no other 240 you have heard before.

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Of course, we start with the garage and end with your questions and comments. For those of you who hung with us live on our UStream channel, thanks for taking the time.

Autoblog Podcast #339:
This father and son duo terrorize the UK countryside in Datsun 240Z pair
Wed, 12 Nov 2014The Datsun 240Z got a lot of things right when it was introduced, with handsome styling, strong performance and a reasonably affordable price. And while the coupes grew a strong fan base in the US, they remained quite a rarity in the UK. Decades later, a father and son in England have latched onto the car and bonded over their shared love for two completely opposite takes on this Japanese GT
There's already quite a collection of exotics in Mel Streek's garage, and his rat rod 240Z, which he calls the Ratsun, definitely doesn't fit with the rest. On the outside, the Datsun looks ready to fall apart, but it's mechanically perfect underneath. Alternatively, Mel's son, Ollie, has a completely different take for his Z with its perfect, shining paint.
Both Zs sound amazing, though. They have a mechanical, somewhat course exhaust note that's intoxicating to hear. You can definitely tell there's some work going on under the hood. Check out this video from Petrolicious for a father and son who both find something to love in these classic Japanese coupes.
