Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to this site and to Z cars. I have been on the hunt for a 240z for many years and have finally found one. Its a 1971 with 105,000 miles on the clock. Its all original except for the exterior colour. The car is originally white but has been painted (903 blue?) at some point in time. I assume the previous owner wanted the car to match the blue interior?

I plan on doing a full restoration but until then I wanted to make the car a little more presentable and clean up the engine and engine bay. I have some before and after pictures of the engine and engine bay I would like to share with you guys. In regards to the motor, I removed the A/C system, air injection pump and the corresponding hoses, painted the block and cleaned up the cylinder head and valve cover. As you will see, there was alot of oily build up on the motor which was a pain to get off to say the least.
