It's a training aid for parts personnel that taught them how to identify Datsuns from day 1 in the US through about 1975. If you see one for sale don't hesitate. It's really cool and very informative as well as a reliable source of correct model info. I have never seen one of those. I would buy one, definitely! 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=168#findComment-648080 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gundee Posted December 11, 2022 Share #2009 Posted December 11, 2022 That is the correct position to put a Z on a lift. There is no other way. 2 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=168#findComment-648104 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yarb Posted December 11, 2022 Share #2010 Posted December 11, 2022 Looks like the front position could go forward a bit under the strut. On the rear is where I position my stands. Thoughts Gentelman.

There is reinforced steel plates in those corners and the front chassis rails are much thicker than the rear ones.

Really, that car is a mess. In addition to other deficiencies pointed out here, the tires are nearly flat, and the left rear has excessive negative camber. Certainly not worthy of the current bid of nearly sixty grand. Someone is going to get a lemon. 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=168#findComment-648128 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Head Posted December 11, 2022 Author Share #2015 Posted December 11, 2022 These guys are still business. The Z's look a lot better though. They had a few that came straight from the wrecking yard for way too much, in the past. https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/inventory.htm?make=[Datsun]&orderby=make,year 1 Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/64671-zs-on-bat-and-other-places-collection/?page=168#findComment-648130 Share on other sites More sharing options...
