My New to me 1971 240

[KAL7467]

Built in 9/70 all the Vin's seem to match 75k from what the PO tells me. Been sitting in a garage for 9 years with her and looks like the owner before restored a lot of the interior and did a crappy maco spray job on the outside. Only rust that I find is surface spots on the doors/hatch/and rocker panels. Battery tray and floors look great. here are some pics enjoy...

WOW! An awsome Series 1 find. Congratulations! The interior looks to be in SUPERB condition and a very clean engine bay. If it stayed on the west coast a long time, you likely have no rust issues to be concerned over. This one is ready to enjoy!!!

It looks to be a very nice car that has kept most of its original period appearance. I like the look of the rear bumper without the upright guards and also the ductless spook. It looks quite similar to what my Z will look like other than the color, wheels and absence of a rear spoiler. I like it, a lot. The paint is something you can eventually get around to improving, really doesn't look bad in the pics.

Outstanding. Enjoy every mile you drive it.

Wow, what a pretty Z... My Fairlady Z is very very close in VIN to this car... #10052, but RHD and has a build date of roughly 10/71.

Beautiful find

nice car, but I think need to change these wheels to become more wild...

[KAL7467]

what wheels do you suggest? I was thinking a nice mesh set maybe bbs rs with a big lip...15 or 16 inch so i can slim out the tires a bit but for now i am just enjoying it as is and fixing the little things that pop up...

Bring it to the next Georgia Z Club meeting.

[KAL7467]

when and where? drop me a pm with info if you remember...thanks

[black gold]

Hi mate, what do you mean about mesh? is it wires wheel if yes, so it is a nice choes. I have a new set of wires wheel i'll keep them for my 70'

[sblake01]

Neither a mesh style wheel nor BBS RS is a wire wheel.

Congratulations on your new Z! It's a real beauty. I strongly recommend John Williams in Sugar Hill (770-806-2926) if you need any work done. He knows Z cars up, down and sideways.

Enjoy the ride!
