Quick Intro

Greetings:

I purchased a 1972 240z (Green paint #133 and butterscotch interior) last month from the second owner who had been in possesion of the car since 1976. The car had seen some degree of regular service (142K miles), but not much in the way of maintenance or use in the past five years. The car is original except for a replacement 5-speed transmission of unkown origin - the owner had it done around 1989 by a local shop. It has the dealer installed A/C - all connected, but not operational. The car does start (not easily) and drive. Car has typical issues - will be searching and posting for assistance soon.

I have worked on many vehicles over the years and have decent mechanical and body work skills and tools, so I'm looking forward to bringing this car back to a truly usable state.

Picts and details will follow....
