June 1, 20195 yr comment_576729 If a 240Z (HLS30) can hit six figures, this is one of them. I saw this car at the convention in Syracuse.

June 1, 20195 yr comment_576747 Are you talking about this forum? If so, you might want to reserve your opinion until you are a little better acquainted with it.I would echo this sentiment - this is one of my absolute favourite / friendly car forums and why I lurk a lot. Lots of very lovely people here.Read Jason’s words in the spirit he meant them. Knowing him in person, he’s a very decent chap with a no nonsense attitude. He’s also a total connoisseur of Datsuns and Bimota bikes!!

June 1, 20195 yr comment_576760 This car is an inspiration to me as I start on my own restoration. Astounding that this is a 25 year old restoration. @motorman7 I like your "Where's Waldo" analogy to spotting items that may not be technically correct. I had to look long and hard, but I found three. First I would comment that it feels petty even mentioning them on such an immaculate car but here they are anyway, please correct me if I am wrong. - Later gas cap with bar type handle - Later replacement alternator, should be "grapefruit style" - Has series two dash with provision for cigarette lighter and on/off marking for hazard light switch Again there so much to like about this car that these type of issues are eclipsed by what is right and its history.
