   240Z Article - Retro Cars

   Was having a look at car magazines in a newsagent. Spotted a mag called Retro cars, that I had never seen before. English Mag. Modified classics, was the by-line. I picked it up and flipped through it, hoping to find some Z's. The first one I found was on page 14. An action shot of a rally 240Z flying through the air. The back wheels about a foot off the ground. Had ZG flares too. Nice I thought, but not worth buying the Mag for. The next one I found was the center poster. Somebodys Rally 240Z. Nice. Possibly worth buying the Mag for. The near the end of the Mag on page 88, 7 pages about the 240Z. "Datsun 240Z. It's the sports car the British motor industry should hav…

   Introduction/SF Bay Area mechanic recommendations?

   Hi everybody, I just recently purchased a 1972 240Z, the problem is, is that I grew up around old Toyota Corollas and Celicas (the Z's sleek body lines and rich history finally got to me). Even though I did some research about vintage Z's before the purchase, I realized I really don't have any human resources or know anywhere to go when it comes to the Z camp. This is also my first Nissan, and the only Nissans I've ever really worked on were 240SX's. I was wondering if any Z owners around the San Francisco Bay Area could recommend a good mechanic and body shop that specializes in 240Z's? It would also be great to know of any parts resources in the area too (I only really …

    Anyone see the new issue of Classic Cars (www.classiccarsmagazine.co.uk)? I only got to look for a couple of minutes at the bookstore. The 240Z is up against a few other cars but I dont' know exactly what the contest was. Whatever it was the Z won. I did notice that Goertz was credited for giving the Z its sex appeal... ANyway if anyone has more info on what it was about please post it here. I wont' be back to the bookstore for awhile and anyway I'm not dishing out $9 for a magazine. michael
