Not to be confused with the 240Z wagon...

I missed this thread the first time around. As soon as I saw the thread title of "240 Wagon" I thought of the Cider Z. I too still have that copy of Peterson's Complete Book of the Datsun © 1975 - as well as another one © 1977....

Wow I never knew this custom car existed!

 

I sincerely understand how this gentleman went through difficult time managing body line and side window height and curve. It is not easy.

 

I never thought of putting rear-end  from another car, since Mr. Matsuo's order was that the car must be recognized as"Z car" from rear view.

 

And this one looks like a combination of Mr. Yoshida's 2 seater wagon design and Mr. Matsuo's 4 seater wagon design and I like it.

 

Where is this car now? Around when was this car built? Very curious!

The Cider Z article was published in 1975 and the car that was modified was a 1972 Z so the wagon version was built sometime between 1972 and 1975.  I haven't seen any other mention of that car in the last 40 years. Perhaps one of the board members has seen it at a car show sometime over the years...
