Administrators gav240z Posted April 14, 2017 Administrators Posted April 14, 2017 Best I can do at a pinch without turning the house upside down: And would that be the cars original livery? As a side note I know you are a big fan of the Omori Spider car, but wondering if you have more photos of other factory or works effort 240ZRs of the period. I'm a big fan of the Gnose based race cars of the period with the Gotti wheels and LY engines etc..but finding details on these cars has always been a bit difficult. d3c0y 1 Quote

Six_Shooter Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Trust me, no one has to hold anything back when racing Diane, she's a VERY good racer.We just finished up a 5 month long indoor cart racing series last Wednesday, that was organized by Diane and the Ontario Zcar Club. She's always one of the quickest even when she got stuck with a poorly performing cart. Quote
CBR Jeff Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 Right hooker English Car. Looks like it was filmed on the moores (nice part of the world) probably more accociated with the mob from Top Gear. Jeff Quote
HS30-H Posted April 25, 2017 Posted April 25, 2017 Right hooker English Car. Looks like it was filmed on the moores (nice part of the world) probably more accociated with the mob from Top Gear. Jeff It's actually a 1976 Fairlady Z-L, built and modified to look like an earlier car (tail lamps etc), mistakenly being called a 'Datsun 240Z' by the importers/video makers.

CBR Jeff Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 I did have a look and I could not see that these have been previously posted. Some interesting information even though it's an infomercial. Jeff Part 1 Part 2 Quote
CBR Jeff Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Another 2+2 video. It's a bit long the music is s#%t but it captures the stirit (vibe) if driving your car very well. Jeff Quote
260DET Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Not my cup of tea but I'm sure others (someone) will like it. Jeff Front and front 3/4 views look great, back not so much. Quote
potter260 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Front and front 3/4 views look great, back not so much. I'm think the rear looks better than the front, if I had to pick a view, but what good is a Z that's trailered to drive in a straight line Quote
shime Posted May 6, 2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Just saw this one, sorry if its already been posted. I absolutely love the car, that paint is to die for. my_mad_z 1 Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted May 6, 2017 Administrators Posted May 6, 2017 Just saw this one, sorry if its already been posted. I absolutely love the car, that paint is to die for. That is Marc's car, the other 240z he's talking about is my 73 240z which I sold to him around year 2001. Still regret selling it, but he's going to keep her original so I gave him the original L24 and gearbox for it recently which had been in storage around 15 years! I still recall seeing this car in the video (the turbo L28 70 model) hanging from the roof of Zworx in Mordialloc Melbourne when Warren ran the place. It was literally a bare shell nothing on it. shime and my_mad_z 2 Quote
