1973 Datsun 240 Z

Orange · 4-Speed Manual

The story

First car I bought my wife. Drove it until we had kids. Was a blast to drive. Sold it Jan. 7th 1984 to Benjamin Cheng for $3,500.00 although it was probable more, because we usually wrote down less on sales receipt to save on sales tax. 😉

Details & Mods

No it did not have the crappy factory carbs, when I bought it the previous owner had already installed the dual Webers and a stainless steel exhaust.

Loved the car and bell bottom white pants. Only a stud can look like that.
