1973 Datsun 240Z

Only a few cars in the history of the automotive industry have truly lasting legacies. The Chevy Corvette and Porsche 911 have stood the test of time in the sports car dominion. But hot on their heels is the legendary Z from Datsun/Nissan. Also called the Fairlady Z in the Japanese market this first-gen 1973 Datsun 240Z is a spectacular example of why this bloodline has endured. The fully resprayed exterior stays true to its original 918 paint code, and with only 3,000 miles of use since its restoration, still looks great. Inside, the black vinyl interior retains its factory appearance, complete with a believed original three-spoke wood-rimmed steering wheel. The original radio is functional and in place, but the consignor has added a hidden Bluetooth stereo under the passenger seat and mounted the controls inconspicuously inside the center console to allow for modern entertainment while still retaining the classic vibe of the interior.

Under the hood is the original numbers-matching 2.4-liter inline-six-cylinder engine. Topped with dual one-barrel carburetors, the engine was removed and rebuilt, and now sits looking comfortable in the remarkably clean engine bay. Power is funneled through an X0700 three-speed automatic transmission and on the rear wheels where sixteen-inch wheels shod in 205/55R-16 Firestone rubber wait to tackle the tarmac with alacrity. An independent suspension at both the front and rear provides a well-balanced track attack, while power disc brakes up front and power drums at the rear scrub off speed in no time.
