   Hi everyone I've had a bit of a look around on the internet but at the moment there just doesn't seem to be a whole lot of retro Datsun stuff. I want to design a website on my 240z and it's restoration progress. The theme of this site is an old skool Datsun approach. I want it to have that old feel like that feeling you get when you see a Classic Muscle car parked next to a vintage fuel pump or Coca Cola sign. So i guess i would like it if people could post old advertising material. However if anyone knows what FONT Datsun was using in the 70's that would be even better.

   The car that I am interested in has tinted windows !!!! I am not a real fan of tinted glass on a 240Z But on this car it does not look bad !! I guess Florida cars need it to help keep some heat out !!! Did anyone ever try to remove tint !!! What do other club members feel about tinted glass on a 240Z ????

   Z-Cars at Barrett-Jackson Auction

   There were 3 Datsun Z-cars at this year's Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scotsdale, AZ that took place last weekend. The '72 went way too cheap for a full restoration. Selling a car with no reserve can be very risky! I don't think the people who attend & bid on cars at the Barrett-Jackson auctions are ready for Zs yet and Zs are ready for the Barrett-Jackson auction yet either. Here's the links: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/auctionresults/common/cardetail.asp?id=178916 http://www.barrett-jackson.com/auctionresults/common/cardetail.asp?id=178464 http://www.barrett-jackson.com/auctionresults/common/cardetail.asp?id=178728

   i've located someone who wants to sell parts from a 70/240z vin#403, manufacture tag 403 nov 69.he has six boxes of stuff, mostly small parts for $200.($160 U S ) i wrote down the list over the phone hastily.(might of missed some parts) what i want to know is, are these parts more unique because they're from a low vin # or not. maybe 26th-Z can answer this question, also is there such thing as hatch glass without defrost wires? p.s. the car was a rust bucket,hence he keep parts.

    Can anyone help identify this bumper. It looks like a 240Z bumper but the license plate bracket is offset to the left (drivers side) between the center and the driverside over-rider position. All the 240 Bumpers I have seen have the bracket centered. JLP

    I've been watching the Barrett jackson auction tonight (thurs) on Speed vision. It appears they skipped showing the 72 Z on the show. it was lot #408, and it looks like it hit the block during a commercial break, judging by the other numbers that came up on the air.
