Posted July 24, 200717 yr comment_216278 This is one of my first posts on this forum so I figured I'd start it off with pictures. Sorry for them all being of the right side, it's all I have on my computer at the moment. Trust me, the left side looks just as nice...All of these were shot in Steamboat Springs, Colorado where I have been living the past 2 years and where I also bought the car. How it got up there I have no idea, but I've since moved so don't worry about any winter driving! Specs 1972 240Z with 86,580 miles Triple Weber Side Drafts with K&N Filters 3 into 2 headers (Unknown) Targa Exhaust Camshaft and Lifters (Unknown, grrr) Tokico Springs (lowers car >1") Turn Six Rear Sway Bar Front Skirt (Urethane) And of course the Whale Tail This is my first car, took me 3 years but I finally bought one I bought this car last year in late September/Early October with 83,550 miles for $3,250.00. It came with all of the original parts plus the huge list of performance everything, though little was known about the car and much of the performance parts are still unknown/un-named until I can look into them further. So far I've spent less than $200.00 in getting it tuned up and looking nice. I have loved early Z's since I first laid eyes on them (12 years old looking in Want Ad Digests) so when this came in the local paper in Steamboat Springs listed as "1972 240Z, looks clean, drives nice, make offer" I had to check it out. As it turns out it was a lot more than a clean, nice driver... Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25000-first-car-1972-240z/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
