I have access to an '83 non turbo for parts before it goes to pick n pull or wherever they send it. I will definitely take the distributor and the 5 speed in case I get the urge for a trans swap into my '71 in the future . Assuming the '83 trans will work in my car as I haven't really looked into it much. It's a relatively low mileage (120k) car that has some minor front end damage but it appears to have been well cared for when it was on the road up until recently. Is there anything on the car I should definitely take while i have access? What do you guys think?

I was Nacogdoches last weekend and saw this Z up on a stand in front of a used car lot. I didn't have time to stop so I checked out online. The robovoice in the video described it as "two hundred sixty Z".... kinda got a kick out of that. That and the 1975 listing even though it has an RLS VIN number. The car looks good in the photos. http://www.peppardautoplex.net/1975_Datsun_260Z_Nacogdoches_TX_157066287.veh#

I was thinking about putting some Watanabe R-Type rims on my 1973 240z. I was wondering if you guys had any experience with the rims to the type of car? I was thinking maybe 16x9.0. Does anyone know what the offset will be and how it might look like? Will it be necessary to put in some fender flares to compensate the offset? I'm sure someone out here's got some sweet photos of their Z with these type of rims.. Here a link to the ones I'm looking at: http://otomoto.shop0...EF/14665711.gif http://media.photobu...ls/WAts15x8.jpg

I just received my October 2012 issue of Automobile. To my surprise on the front cover there is a title "Scion FR-S vs Datsun 240Z" The article runs from page 70 to 76. There are some great pictures of the silver 240Z alongside the FR-S. I only read the beginning of the article to learn that Nissan allowed the journalist to use the 1971 Vintage Z that Nissan owns for this article. Just wanted to share this with all of you in case you want to purchase this magazine while it is on the newstands. I will be reading the complete article tonight after I get all the items on my Saturday to do list done.

Some months ago I bought an AM radio from Ebay. When it arrived the faceplate had been broken in two. The break occured directly down the center of the amtena switch hole. And the bottom corners had been broken off at the screw holes. Additionally, all of the chrome letters had been worn off from 35 years of use. My original clock was not functional either (surprise). So I bundled both items up and sent them off to the master. I got both items back last weekend. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the faceplate. It was in one piece, the corners had been rebuilt, the broken faceplate was now one piece and the raised letters were now silver/chrome colored. It h…

Many of the cars on this list provided styling cues for the 240Z...the Jag E-Type, the Aston Martin DB5, and the Ferrari 250. All have "sugar scoop" headlights, long sculpted hoods, and similar rooflines. I can see more of the Ferrari in theZ than any of the others. Comments? http://autos.yahoo.com/news/the-10-most-beautiful-cars-of-all-time.html

I am selling my 1977 280z. The manufacture date is 12/76 and it has a 5 speed. Does anyone know if this year and trans. makes this car rare. It needs restoration so I'm not sure what to ask.
