  1. If you want to spend $25k, I have a 1972 240z ..body completely restored, engine cost $10k for a professionally rebuilt 3 liter stroker...too much done to list. I have 2 websites with all the info you need about this Z. I plan on driving it from the Detroit area to Huntington Beach next month and keeping there until April.

    Get in touch at cnpbaker@yahoo.ca if you are interested

  2. Here's mine....see attached. It is turn key .... body, suspension, fuel system half shafts, R200 fully restored. Low mileage L28 (under 60k), 5 speed and matching R200 from the desireable 1982 280z. No drips anywhere...extremely clean car and pulls very hard. I also sent you an email

  3. Hello from Windsor, Canada. I have owned 4 240z and know them well. If you have a solid body, little rust especially frame rails, battery tray, etc., you're off to a great start. Unless the engine has been rebuilt, it will need it and that's including the head. Now you can look for deals for a swap, get the head rebuilt, etc., but if you have never worked on a Z , don't do the work yourself. One mistake with cam timing and you'll smack a valve and $$$$$$. For $3000, you can bring your engine to Datsun Spirit and get back a completely rebuilt engine, done right.

    In the long run, you're better off.

  4. I have owned four 240z, a 260z and 280zx. I currently have a '72 240z and I like the z for it's inline 6. Personally, I would not do it and I would not buy a Z with anything other than an inline 6, not even an RB swap. From a stock L24, you can get 200hp at the wheels and 300hp with an L28. I use to love the V8 muscle cars ...had a '70 GTO but a Z is sweet and much easier to work on.
