I was cruising around the net looking for some 'period' photos of 240Z's, just to see what I can find, and I ran across some nice shots of the interior and exterior of a 240Z from 1972. They're on this page...

Uh. The 'woman' in the front seat is actually a man, but if you can get past that it's interesting to see what a 'white interior' car looked like when new.

Too bad we can't find out what the VIN is.

Brian,

Regarding white interiors, one of our members has done a beeeeeautiful job on the interior of his Zed. Problem is, .... I can't for the life of me recall his user name so you could check out his gallery.

Someone help me out here. His avatar was a pic taken of the interior of his car, showing all the white upholstery.

Boy, ... I AM getting old. Talk about short term memory loss !!!!!

Rick.

:devious: :devious:

My car has the blue interior, and I like it quite a bit. That white interior is sweet, though.

Well, I do have photos....but they're old, from when I first bought the car. The interior is currently pretty much disassembled so that I can install floor pans (looking for a shop that can do this now). The door panels need some minor repair, and I have purchased OEM blue seat covers to replace the ugly black ones.

To this point, I've been doing mechanical stuff (engine, brakes, suspension) but I'm going to start looking inside the passenger compartment now.

New black 'Z logo' carpet, Cusco strut bars for the front and rear strut towers, blue dye for the plastic panels, etc....it's going to be a blue nightmare inside, but I like it.
