Vehicle Description
The 1973 Datsun 240Z has an iconic style that's defining the new
class of vintage sports cars. So when you can find an example that
keeps the classic looks but has all the right subtle upgrades like
slick paint and a larger engine, then you know you've discovered
something quite special. The metallic brown paint is exactly the
kind of hue that belongs on a '70s machine. But as you get closer,
you also see that it has a nice clearcoat luster from a more modern
respray. This really makes the car pop every time the sunlight hits
it. You'll love how that added glow highlights the crisp sheetmetal
that includes the long hood w/lengthy power bulge, fastback
profile, and the tailgate that neatly integrates into the
racecar-inspired rear. There have been more nice investments in
this car, but none of it distracts from its classic style. You see
it everywhere from the mirror-like chrome bumpers, to the slotted
mag alloys that dealers loved to give loaded cars in the '70s. The
butterscotch tan interior has a bright look that's absolutely
inviting. High-back bucket seats, taut door panels, and plush
carpeting make this a great place for two people to spend some
time. There's even an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo to have the best in
driving tunes. But Datsun also knew that a proper sports car is all
about the driver. That's why you get a grippy three-spoke sports
steering wheel, and the stick shift feels like it was perfectly
placed in the cockpit. Plus, the crisp dash look positively
European with the deep dual pods for the speedo and tach, and even
the auxiliary gauges are at eye-level. At first glance, everything
looks correct under the hood with Datsun's long block, dual carbs,
and even the factory air cleaner cover. But this Z-car holds a
secret. You're actually looking at the larger 2.8-liter
straight-six borrowed from a 280Z. The motor fires up with the same
sturdy steadfastness you expect from a Datsun, but now you get an
extra kick of power. And you really get to take advantage of it all
with the control of the four-speed manual transmission. Plus, with
a fully-independent suspension and front disc brakes, this classic
is truly an enjoyable sporting machine. Complete with owner's
manual and build receipts, this is the cool original Z-car with the
best subtle upgrades. So don't let something this unique slip away,
