Thanks for the advice, all. I am by no means a mechanic, but I do have friends that are mechanics. That said, I am looking for an already-restored Z - not necessarily show-room condition, though.

Thanks all. I'm in Omaha, NE. I would jump all over just about any good condition 72-73 240Z with a 4-speed and a manageable amount of rust. Color, options, etc dont really matter to me. -j

j, the new z-fan. the first car i ever drove was my uncle's 72 240Z with a 4-speed. now i'm in the market for a "refreshed" 72-73 240Z, also with a 4-speed. my uncle recently passed (RIP) so i thought it fitting to finally go after one, in remembrance. my dad also used to own a 78(?) datsun B210 (puke) - but hey that kinda means its in my blood, right? wow that B210 was slow as DIRT though. if i remember correctly, it actually said in the manual to NOT exceed 50mph, as it would be detrimental to gas mileage. my daily driver is an 03 infiniti g35 coupe, red with a 6-speed and all the goodies. it was a cllllose heat between the g35 and an 03 350Z, but in the end the g35 won out because of interior luxury and a useable backseat. but hey it's still a nissan right? so anyway, that's my story, and i hope to learn a lot on this forum. i also post as jayco on the g35 forum www.g35driver.com. -j
