Hi, I'm a new member to this site and I was wondering about the origin of my car. I am the third owner (second owner was my dad) and the story is that this car was owned by the ex-president of some california zcar club. I don't know a whole lot about z's, but what is unusual about my car is a custom vinyl bra and mohair? seat interior. I think that the seats are factory options, but does anybody know the owner of this car? It is a July 72 240z with vin #hls30-93507. Im just curious. Thanks.

P.S. Any suggestions for a replacement cam for my stock l24?

All the early Z's had vinyl seats form the factory unless the seat covers were a dealer installed item.

You won't gain much by changing the cam unelss you plan on a few other changes to be able to compliment the cam, such as ignition upgrades, better exhaust, and depending on the cam selected, rear differential gearing or transmission, not to mention making sure your carbs are in top notch condition. One upgrade is usually dependant on what else you are willing to do in order to get the most out of the upgrades....

you can post the serial number in a www.zhome.com they have a searchable data base that you might want to check out.

if he put it in there as his car at one time it might still be there
