Hello all!

I wish to say HI and do a brief intro on my self.

First, I'm Steve and second, My mom just gave me her 1972 240. It has not moved in over 10 years so its going to need a LOT of luven! All the parts are there and the body is in fairly good shape! I know I am going to need to do a complete rebuild on it and I am ready for the task but I also know that many parts are no longer available so I well be asking a lot of questions on where to find or how to make parts. So for the next few years, please bare with me and my Z -Car ignorance while I stumble my way into this new world!

Hope to learn and make a few new friends!

Welcome Polecat.

Yea. hi.

Welcome and post pics!

Don't assume it will need a total rebuild. Get it running first after replacing all fuel lines, brake lines and coolant hoses.

Congrats, my Z was a b-day present and had been in a garage for at least 12 years! I have to agree with Darrel, first try to get it to fire, a brake rebuild all around is a must and most parts for that are still available, as is the gas tank cleaning and fuel lines need to be flushed, so you will be busy for a while before you start hunting for the obvious things that you need. Just my

2 cents, I have been working on my Z for almost 3 years now! Good Luck.:classic:
