72 OJ

PLEASE ADVICE, I hate to lose this deal if this mod is a practical one.THANKS

It is now in BAT,,,,,good comments

Came across a front set of tokico springs part # 5020f....My question to you gurus . I only want to do the front ,is this OK and how much of a drop this set will do to a 72 Z. thanks:cool:

What old car with heritage/nostalgia can you buy in this days for around 10k + or - DONE ,in decent shape and road ready,,,,,not much, but Z's fill that category IMO.

I got mine at DATSUNLANDSOCAL part # D001 48 $ for the pair plus s/h ,,phone # 714 393 0273. They require the removal of the staple that holds them to the SS frame and they provide the clips that holds the rubber to the frame.

Bid is at 11,600.00 US $ and one day to go..............

Very nice Z,,,,,sweet ride, my next mod are installing fogs like yours,where did you get the clear turning lenses .......ENJOY

This site is the place to collect info and parts.

I don't need them but I want them...they are faded but they can be refresh with elbow grease ....this is a bad addiction.:paranoid:

He has a 240 K and needs to sell some land in order to build a garage with room for his car and spare parts .

Opinions on this Z ,,,,25K to 45k US$ price tag:cool:

Thanks for the info on registar....I have given this Z a few personal touches but believe that are period mods,,,,a vintage leather Momo steering wheel,cut 4 inches from the sitick shift and adapted a vintage Momo leather knob that seats nice on the boot, just installed a set of polished wheels from a 77 Z, bullet chrome side view mirros and an old Sony AM/FM cassette player . I do have the original owners manual. PS ; same orange 918 as yours

What # is my 72 Z.....it is a California car now in MD ,totally refresh with new paint on original panels,engine has been changed with a 260 block all stock internals replaced,head is a redone E88 all stock,original no crack dash,seats and door panels now in cloth/vinyl,all original glass with new rubber seals, new struts/shocks, brake shoes/pads, rotors/drums, new master C, new brake lines, new bushings , front end redone,all electrical's in working condition including the factory clock,a used 5 speed trany with no issues and 71 SU's properly tuned.

Hooters Dreamgirl......

Thanks,I will verify the # on trany.

The engine on the 620 is a L20B.

I read a short thread on this but it does not give any details ,it simply states that it is a common transplant......please advice....THANKS

I came across a 5 speed trany that came from a 78 or a 79 620 truck ,the gears ratios on them are very close ,will it fit my 72 Z.I need your expertise on this mod.:bulb:

There it is, in your back yard......grab it,make a cash in person offer and must likely it will be yours for less than 3 K. Good luck fellow Z AFICIONADO.

rturbo 930......give us this info a day or so ago.

steering on the right side of the cabin but the manual shift is on the left......you know what I was trying to express ,I had a UK MINI COOPER S and it was not a fun car to drive in US roads due to the drivers position in the cabin. Yep RHD.

WOW....I read this post and must admit ....what a delight ....had a smoke to calm the post excitement .

Distance should not be an obstacle, it is Cali car, any rust issues will be minimal if any, add the transport cost and you are ahead.I rather pay transportation $ against $$$$$ in body work.:bulb:

I had a LHD and it was not fun driving on I95 behind an eighteen wheeler .....not easy to pass and on a single lane SCARY.

That has to be the best looking blue big bumper Z in captivity ......lots of mula .So it is evident that our cars are collectors items,I try very hard to keep both of my 72 orange DATSUNS in top condition ,to me this hobby is my mental health avenue with vast memories .
