Looks like the Golden Gate looking toward the Marin headlands. Series 1 with a “suit” owner. Hope she’s still purring along!

Hi Guys, First of all, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and the very best health ! I am new here but can already appreciate the overall dynamic and supportive mindset of the neighborhood ! End of May 2020, insomnia hitting, I somehow ended up on BaT at 2am and got my hands on a beautiful 280 Z from April 1976 with its original matching number engine + 1981 280zx 5-speed gearbox (the original 4-speed also came in a box). The car is originally from Nebraska I believe, but transferred to Ohio in 2016. Obviously with COVID-19 and loads of excuses from the transporter (CFR Rinkens - DO NOT recommend), the car reached Dubai (UAE) mid September…

There is a 1970 Datsun 240Z survivor for sale on Hemmings Auctions that went from $0 to $60k in under 24-hours. Can it give the Green Monster a run for the crown??

They have the original grey/cream coloured primer on them. Should I strip them to bare metal or just paint over the top?

I bought this Z (1973 240z, white/red, build date 10/1972) in April from the original owner, and have been working on restoring. (Will post some interior pics soon, hopefully.) As some of you know, like @Captain Obvious and others, the original flat tops were neglected and this car has been driven about 5K at most, in the last 20+ years. So, after some input from the board, and looking around, I settled on the Paltech round top SU carbs. They are beautiful. In fact, I'll have to clean/polish/replace the rest of the engine compartment elements to keep them from looking crappy by comparison. I an not a mechanic, but consider myself handy. I need some help on w…

Hi there. Both me and my friend have a genuine swiss-market 240Z. As @HS30-H pointed out in the past, the three japanese katakana characters ス イ ス on the glove-box liner stand for "su-i-su" and mean these two cars where destined for the swiss market (suisse) What i'm wondering now are the Characaters next to the "swiss" tag: I have some kind of "F" or "P" in a circle left of the swiss mark My friend has a something like an "A" right of the swiss mark. Since it was written there for a certain purpose during assembly or after, i guess it has either to do something with the equipment variant (colours maybe?) or the destination too. But google…

Hello...I have a 1973 240-Z that needs an antenna to fill the hole where the original one once was. I would love an original, but I am not willing to spend the kind of money that I see them for on Ebay, etc. Does anyone have a suggestion for a respectable alternative...? I really don't care if it works...it could even be completely manual. I just want it to look good and retract fully. Thanks for your help...Ryals in north GA.
