I was at Thunder Valley Casino here in California, when I spotted a grey S30 out in the parking lot. I was curious if anyone here owned it, and if the car was a 240 or a 260. It had the front turn signals of a 240/early 260, but had custom taillights. It also did not have the stock 240 center console, but had the choke warning/fusebox cover retrofitted into the console. The VIN is HLS30-141309. I'm guessing 260Z.

260 would be RLS30

HLS30 141309 would be 240Z built 01/73

nice job...

260 would be RLS30

Ah, wasn't sure. Now I know. What's the chassis code for the 280Z?

That a very interesting hood modification. Looks like it has been extended down to fill the gap between the original hood line and the bumper. I can't quite see what was done below but this may have been an attempt to address the airflow issues up front.

Yeah, it's an interesting mod on the front but, I gotta say the guy (or maybe a gal) is pretty brave to be parking where they did.......can you say door dings???

Nothing a little bit more fiberglass and bondo wouldn't cure? jk

So no one is claiming this car? Maybe I should make some postcards or something that list most of the popular Z forums and put them on people's windshields.

Nevermind, it drives me crazy when people do that to me, I wouldn't want to make them go through the same thing.
