1971 Datsun Z-Series Description

I purchased this Z from the original owner. The car has a lot of documents including the original purchased receipt and all the service history. I also have a few boxes of parts, photos, magazines and memorabilia that dates back to 1971.

When you go through the binder you will see all the countries and states that the car has traveled. Countries include Japan, which is where it was originally purchased and driven by the original owner. He then later ship the car to his base in Germany and lastly to the USA San Francisco port.The 240Z was purchased from Ryuku Nissan Motor Co. in Okinawa Japan. As you can obviously tell that the car has rust from being all over the place. That did not stop me from buying it and enjoying the car as much as possible. My plan was to restore it as much as I can but plan changes and I really hope that the car goes to someone who cares about the historic '240Z'.

As stated and shown the in the photo link, there is rust on the car. Most noticeablyare the rear fenders, front inner fender well rail, engine bay shock tower. The dog leg area might have rust too. The body has never been restored or had any rust area cut out and replaced with new sheet metal. The original owner seal and covered the holes to protect it from spreading even more and resprayed the exterior with a single stage paint job. This was done a long time ago.
