1971 240z

[curtis 240z]

Hi all,

 

I'm sure most of you remember the car that was advertised on Carsales a month ago at eltham in Melbourne. After waiting three weeks I finally got it back up here. For the age it's not to bad with a few bubbles coming out around the hatch panel, but the rest of the body is good and the interior is neat and tidy, it wouldnt hurt to replace the carpet. Anyway have a loo at the improvements so far, these are the only mods (wheels) that I plan to do.

Thanks all, the wheels do look good dimitri, they made a huge difference as far as looks go but it handles like it's on rails now.

Perfect, seriously the only mod you need to make the 240z look good . Stock hubcaps are an acquired taste to say the least but original none the less . Love the fender mirrors by the way and dare I say it, the pinstripe really sets it all off - helps break up the sea of white.

I was going to take the under dash air out, but amazingly it still works, all it needs is gas. Thanks gav the only mod I have done and am going to do is the wheels. I am still going to replace a few odd bits and peices with new parts just to get the car right up to scratch. I'm glad someone else likes the mirrors, so far everyone that's seen it in person said ditch them but they are original and there in good condition.

Sure is, I'm looking at something else, not car related. If it sells in the meantime i'll keep the 240z.

Hello, Did you ever sell this car? If now would you be willing to sell the fender mirrors for 200 us dollars? Please let me know.

 

Thanks, Mike
