  1. Thanks for the great advice. I will study up on these tips from the links you sent me. I have 2 mechanics coming with me to look at the car, but I don't know any Z experts in the area to bring sadly. This car feels like fate for me. If this thing is as pretty in person as it is in the pictures, it will be mine in 2 weeks. Here are some more pictures of the car, any input and feedback would be most appreciated again: This is apparently the only known defect
  2. Ello everyone. I am in the market for a 240Z and I think I finally found one I think is worth it. Just for the record, I will only drive Nissans. I currently own a 2002 Spec-V that I am boosting in a month, but I want something RWD, sexy, and classic for the weekends, and I think I found it. It is a 1971 240Z. It has been upgraded with a 75' L28 block and N42 head shipped in a crate from Japan around 1990, and has a 5 speed from a 83 NA ZX. The car runs fine and looks great, no body rust whatsoever. The car is sexy. I am going to look at it in person on Saturday, test drive it and what not. I need to know if there is anything to look for problem wise. I already know all the spots to check for rust (Though the seller has plenty of pictures below the car to show there is no rust), but in regards to this engine, and the car in general, I need to know if there is anything in particular to look out for. If any other information is needed please let me know. It has been my dream to own a S30, and if this car checks out, then in 2 weeks time, the dream may come true. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advanced. The engine:
