They made a 74 240Z???

It's just when Sblake wrote "so technically there is a such thing as a 1975 260Z" Without specifying the area, it needed clarification.

Yes, my bad. I was speaking of the US market. We only had the 260Z for the one model year, 1974 but it was produced until 11/74 which would technically make the later ones (8/74-11/74) 75s.

Hate to pop your bubble, however 260Z's were produced until 1978 as a RS or GRS model!

Not sure what the circumstances were in Europe, perhaps someone form that part of the world can enlighten us as to when the S-30 finished there?

Last registered 240z in the UK was 1974.

The 15K got me too.

I dont know much about this but what is the chance that this is a 240 that has been through some sort of "Chop Shop" for whatever reason (stolen) and the vin has been changed over by someone not knowing enough about the car.

unless it was done early in the cars life, it is pretty small, removing emblems, replacing a hatch and changing out taillights would take less energy than changing out the engins and the firewall data stamp-the numbers match as I recall.

This car has 240 written all over it, dash pad, c-pillar, hatch,tailights, tailight panel, bumper guard position ,a lot has changed from RLS30033563 to mine RLS30034513 HMMMMMM?????

Guys, could it possibly be that the guy mis-read his VIN as an "R" and not an "H"? Occam's Razor.

My title for a couple years read "HL5-30"....

My insurance picked it up, and then they added HLS30 at the end after I called them back about it, so then I was HL5-30-043274HLS30.....

It took several rewrites and a threat of cancellation to get someone to actually listen and stop assuming.... The title, believe it or not, was actually EASIER. Showed them a picture....presto zesto... changed!
