Hey there ZORRO. Of course you're proud of your Z. Each and every one of us is proud of their Z's, (otherwise we'd probably have a LESSER make such as a Mustang------a dime a dozen). However, my point is, why buy a 240 then fit it out with 280 components?? Why not simply buy a 280 and be done with it. My intention is to keep my 260 as original as possible. I'd like to see most Aussie Z owners modify their Z's to hell and gone. Then, as Z's become rarer, a modified Z might leave me for dead at the lights but I'll be laughing all the way to the bank as the value sky rockets on ORIGINALS. Rick.

Hey there DAZZA, Maybe we should get together and compile a Australian / American dictionary. Looks like we need to edify these septic tanks. All I want to do is stop the breeze from mucking up my hair. (what little there is left of it), when the windows are down. Rick.

Hey there NISSANMAN, you talking about the good looking GIRLS I hope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. I'm 58 going on 20. My "She Who Must Be Obeyed" reckons that with the coming of the Z I've entered into my second childhood. HOW WRONG SHE IS. I'm still in my FIRST. Rick.

At 58, I'm in the fifth group. Hopefully someone will be honest enough to click on 6 otherwise I'm gonna feel OLD. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe.

Just to throw the cat amongst the pidgeons,-------------------- I've been having a chat with another member in another forum and the subject of originality came up, so I'd like to pose you all a question. Just how far can you go with mods? If you install a 280 engine into a 240, as so many appear to do, how can it still be referred to as a 240????????????? After all, weren't z's named in accordance with their engine capacities?????????????????????????? 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe----------ORIGINAL(as possible)

AAAHHHHHHH, yes Dazza. What a dream that is. To have two Z's. Only two things stop me from having more than one; lack of money and "She Who Must Be Obeyed". Still, a man must have his dreams. I agree about keeping the Z original. How far can you go with mods and still call the car a Z ????????? Put a 280 engine into a 240 should it still be regarded as a 240??. You get my drift?? 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe.

Hey there Dazza, Glad to see you are keeping your 240 original. I'm doing the best I can with my 260. So far so good. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe.

Thanks for the explaination Dazza, couldn't have put it better myself. I'll be interested to see what our septic tank brothers call them. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe

:devious: GOOD GRIEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I wanted to ask was whether there were any other 260's out there. Looks like I've started a WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My 260 is probably the slowest one of all 'cause I drive it. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe.

I would like to fit weathershields to my 260. Can anyone suggest a car make and model that would fit?????? 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe

:devious: OOOOOHHHHHH, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT, I LOVE IT. Ask a leading question then sit back and enjoy the fun. If only I'd planned it that way!!!!!!!!:cheeky: The fact is that whether it be a 240, 260, 260 and a bit, (2+2), or 280, it is still a Z. That's the important thing. Now to put on the thinking cap and see what other leading questions I can come up with. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe.

As IONMAN said, "A Z IS A Z" I'm glad to see that there are other 260's out there. What with all the talk and pic's of 240's I was beginning to feel awfully lonely. 1974 Bronze 260 Z Sports Coupe

You know that little panel that goes behind the seats, is shaped to fit in front of the wheel well and has a chromed rubber strip across the top???????? Well, if you are trying to find those chromed rubber strips, check out the local cabinet maker who builds bathroom vanities and cupboards. It's just as good as that bought from a car dealer and MUCH cheaper. 1974 260 Z Bronze Sports Coupe.

All you blokes appear to own 240's !!!!!!!!!!!!! Doesn't anyone have a 260 ???????????????????

Derk, You are a CRUEL, CRUEL PERSON. Not only do you TELL us about your find, you SEND US PHOTOS OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What with all the suggestions you 've already had, I can't think of anything to add. I reckon every one of us envies you your find. Gonna go and check out some old farm sheds Bye. 1 Bravo 6

G'Day there HALZ and Alfadog, My 260 Z has a sunroof. I have been in contact with the original owner, (I'm the 2nd), asking info on the sunroof. They replied that it was a dealer option at place of purchase. 1 Bravo 6 Bronze, '74 260 Z Sports Coupe.
